Mentoring to face 21st century challenges
Mentoring is a relationship that is created to share knowledge and experience for learning in a purposeful way.
To share knowledge and experience you do not need any more to be old and with hundreds of years of experience. The traditional form of mentoring has given way to more “egalitarian” forms.
The fact that the first mentor in the global history was Mentor (Μέντωρ in Greek) Ulissys best friend clearly shows that the relationship needs to be based on confidentiality, trust and mutual respect.
