Getting persons of any age to perform at their utmost is a bona fide challenge for those in tutelage roles, be they in the home, on the sports field, or at the workplace. Keeping a diverse staff of employees both contented and focused on the work at hand is a job that's not for the faint-hearted. As fate would have it, there is an increasingly utilized managerial methodology that meets these weighty challenges head-on and with a proven track record of success. This coveted managerial road map, known as coaching and mentoring, essentially asks that its devotees conscientiously manage men and women as distinct individuals with unique talents and possibilities. With the baby boom generation poised to retire en masse from the workforce in the coming years, businesses will need to replace a wholesale brain drain of knowledge and skills.

They will accomplish this in part by requiring their managers to be coaches. Successful managing in any venue is an art form. Mentors. Mentors. Mentoring.

Paradox of Mentoring. I believe mentoring is a gift for the mentee and the mentor. Throughout my career, I’ve been blessed with incredible mentors who, perhaps unknowingly, taught me how to mentor. It’s something I take seriously and joyfully. It is a paradox – an incredibly selfless thing that is also very selfish.

Recently, my mentoring has increased. Status Quo is a powerful Siren Song: It’s so easy to succumb to the status quo; though I fight it, it’s the boiled frog syndrome – and it’s so very human. So, take some advice from these kids – start mentoring. Image credit: collaborativeinnovation.org. Robert's Rules of Innovation - The Book on Innovation Management Strategies. Innovation Coach.

Mentoring. Number 7 October 1993 WHAT IS IT? Mentoring--from the Greek word meaning enduring--is defined as a sustained relationship between a youth and an adult. Through continued involvement, the adult offers support, guidance, and assistance as the younger person goes through a difficult period, faces new challenges, or works to correct earlier problems. In particular, where parents are either unavailable or unable to provide responsible guidance for their children, mentors can play a critical role.

The two types of mentoring are natural mentoring and planned mentoring. WHY ARE MENTORING PROGRAMS SO POPULAR? HOW DO THEY WORK? Appropriately matching mentors with youths is at the heart of all programs. WHY ARE THEY NEEDED? WHAT ARE THEY FOR?

Career development planning benefits the individual employee as well as the organization by aligning employee training and development efforts with the organization's mission, goals, and objectives.

An individual development plan (IDP) is a tool to assist employees in achieving their personal and professional development goals. IDPs help employees and supervisors set expectations for specific learning objectives and competencies. While an IDP is not a performance evaluation tool or a one-time activity, IDPs allow supervisors to clarify performance expectations. IDPs should be viewed as a partnership between an employee and their supervisor, and involves preparation and continuous feedback. Many agencies require IDPs for new and current employees, and encourage employees to update them annually. When using an IDP, supervisors develop a better understanding of their employees' professional goals, strengths, and development needs. Federal agencies are required by law (Title 5, U.S. Mentor. Telemachus and Mentor in the Odyssey When Athena visited Telemachus she took the disguise of Mentor to hide herself from the suitors of Telemachus's mother Penelope.[2] As Mentor, the goddess encouraged Telemachus to stand up against the suitors and go abroad to find out what happened to his father.

When Odysseus returned to Ithaca, Athena appeared briefly in the form of Mentor again at Odysseus' palace. Mentor as term[edit] The first recorded modern usage of the term can be traced to a 1699 book entitled Les Aventures de Télémaque, by the French writer François Fénelon[3] In the book the lead character is that of Mentor. This book was very popular during the 18th century and the modern application of the term can be traced to this publication.[3] References[edit] External links[edit] Homer’s Mentor: Duties Fulfilled or Misconstrued—An on-line version of Andy Roberts' paper (see the References section) Www.mentoring.org/downloads/mentoring_1081.pdf.
