As earlier announced, we are pleased to launch the pilot of the PMI Belgium Chapter Mentoring Program for our members (branded under project “GROW”).
Although people mainly learn and develop themselves through job experience, Mentoring is a complementary way to learn through others beside the learning through structured courses and programs.
The mentoring programme will assist both mentors and mentees in attaining key life skills though sharing experiences with each other.
"Mentoring is to support and encourage people to manage their own learning in order that they may maximise their potential, develop their skills, improve their performance and become the person they want to be." Eric Parsloe, the Oxford School of Coaching & Mentoring
What are Mentors and Mentees?
A Mentor is defined as a person who is committed and able to share knowledge and experience in a manner that may lead to enhanced performance by positively affecting another's professional and/or personal growth.
A Mentee is defined as a committed person who seeks direction from a Mentor or benefits from his/her experience and lessons learned. Protégés must be active.
Mentors will become more self-aware and will benefit from the sense of satisfaction gained through giving back to the community.
Mentees gain from access to an impartial mentor able to help them develop new competencies including leadership skills, and many develop to the extent where they take on a mentoring role after completing the programme.
