Mentors/Mentees

CAASTRO is delighted to launch its Mentoring Program. A mentoring relationship is usually where one wiser and more experienced person assists another person to grow and learn. It is not a new management technique: ever since humans have lived in social groups, we have learned our norms, values and behaviours by the example and coaching of others.

Experience, skills and a genuine desire to help are more valuable assets in a mentoring relationship than age or position. Open and assertive communication and the trust of both parties are essential. Both partners in the mentoring relationship benefit. Learning must be a lifelong process and one of the most effective ways to learn is to assist in the development of others.
