- A platform to develop a person's passion, skills and experience
- An opportunity to model effective organizational behaviors such as decisiveness, tolerance of uncertainty, resistance to stress, and use of personal power
- A learning partnership for both the mentor and mentee
- A process whereby the mentor and mentee work collaboratively to spark discovery, insights and understanding for mutual learning and growth
