The power of mentorship, especially during this pandemic, has never been more important as businesses strive to aid their employees’ personal and professional growth. Mentoring allows people to learn from one another, providing a path to knowledge transfer and growth. As significant changes have been imposed on work-life balance, the need for a mutually beneficial relationship like that of mentee-mentor is the most valuable asset to attain during these times.
Sounds easy enough, right? Turns out, there is a lot that goes into this. Mentoring is an art, not just software.
