Mentoring and Reverse Mentoring are internal learning pathways to grow talent, spread corporate culture, transfer values, include diversity, improve intergenerational work, and enhance cross-functional collaboration.
The benefits of these pathways are many, both for those who benefit directly (the mentees), and for the organization and the mentors themselves, who have the opportunity to develop their interpersonal skills and experience the value of their own impact in the development of others. Mentors become mentors by strengthening the ability to create a trusting relationship and learning how to effectively manage mentoring process and techniques as the proposed pathway teaches.
