Having a solid mentee/mentor relationship can set the path for achieving greatness. However, new mentors often find themselves at loss on how to guide a mentee. This can lead to an unhealthy relationship full of frustration. This interactive session, featuring experts on human relations and experienced mentors, will aim to establish an understanding of what a healthy mentee/mentor relationship looks like. Attendees will explore tools for identifying and mending poor relationships with their mentees and learn how to be an effective mentor. The session will include a panel discussion, panelist-led role playing, and Q&A.
