6 Summary

By now, you should have a better understanding of what a mentor could do for you and how to find one. You’ve also considered what you could offer if you became a mentor yourself.

You should now be able to:

  • identify the goals and objectives that a mentor can help you with
  • find the right mentor for your needs
  • describe how you might become a mentor yourself.
