#SpCP13: Week 6

Starting to think about mentorship.

In Groups of Three

Three Scenarios

Working with athletes (in your favourite sport) who would like your guidance about how to train.

A novice coach asks if you can be a mentor for them in their first season as a coach.

A new teacher asks if you can co-teach a class in their second term at the school.

“Behind every successful person, there is one elementary truth: somewhere, somehow, someone cared about their growth and development.”

Beverley Kaye, Up is Not the Only Way, 1997

“A mentor provides information, shares their experience or expresses an opinion. However it is always the mentee that decides, acts and produces outcomes.”
