The role of mentors
Mentors act as role models, role models and advisors in the mentoring relationship. They are committed companions who listen, answer questions, provide feedback, motivate, give practical tips, point out opportunities, self-critically disclose their own mistakes and successes, and share professional networks.
The tasks of mentors
Being a mentor primarily means that they offer their time and experience to help another person master a situation that they have already successfully overcome. In other words, they act as advisors, coaches, companions, critics, role models, and support less experienced young people (= mentees) in their professional and personal development.
You give the mentees the opportunity to reflect on their concerns and plans in the light of your own experience and thus help them to plan the next steps in their development. The main task of mentors is to strengthen mentees and to open up space for reflection in joint discussions.
