Mentoring Advice
Good communication is a key element of mentoring relationships. It's critical that mentor and mentees identify characteristics of effective communication and take time to practice communication skills during mentor-mentee meetings. Determine each other’s preferred medium of communication (face-to-face, phone, or email) and acknowledge if it differs from your own personal preference. (courtesy of CIMER)
