    The typical role of a mentor is defined as being the training and technical support anchor for an individual who is learning new skills and knowledge. The mentor guides and leads their prot?g? in a dance that ensures knowledge and skills from the mentor are transferred to the prot?g?. This dance is individually cho

    reographed for each mentor and prot?g? as all prot?g?s’ are not the same.

    One of the big mistakes systems make is to assume that anyone can be a mentor. WRONG! This mentality often is the same mentality that causes systems to move good technical staff into management positions and then wonder why the new manager is

    Mentoring has its own fundamental knowledge base, its own set of skills, and its own set of indicators of success. Many systems feel that a part of a supervisor’s role is to mentor those they supervise -
    lude drug-coated devices, drugs packaged with delivery devices in medical kits, and drugs and devices packaged separately but intended to be used together.

    nd in some rare cases this can be effective - but too often the role of supervising conflicts with the role of mentoring.

    Think about this… the role of a mentor is to understand a prot?g?s strengths and limitations and to create a relationship based on trust. This trust means the prot?g? feels confident they can t

In some work cultures, a supervisor’s role is defined as a micro-manager who is to look for errors in their supervisee’s performance and provide consequences for these errors.

    No employee/prot?g? will learn to trust a supervisor/mentor who is expected to document everything they see an employee do that does not meet expectations. This type of work environment may say they are mentoring employees but they actually are showing their ignorance about mentoring.

    So how

    does an agency balance the need for leadership in training employees and supervising and monitoring for quality? Good question and there is an answer. The role of mentor is not a part of the supervisor’s role. Mentors are selected because they have the needed knowledge and skills to pass on to others, they are goo
