Phase 1: Create a positive space
During this phase, the mentor and mentee will have the opportunity to get to know each other and build a rapport. They will also determine their means of communication and agree on meeting times.
Phase 2. Develop the roadmap
During this phase, the mentee will provide the mentor with information regarding her life goals and her expectations for the relationship. The mentor will guide the mentee to develop her goals for the mentoring period and timelines.
Phase 3: Implementing the roadmap and achieving goals
The mentor will guide and advise the mentee to achieve her goals as set out in the roadmap through stimulating her creativity, motivating her, and sharing additional resources, where relevant and available. During this period, the mentee will have the opportunity to develop her leadership and other soft skills.
Phase 4: What have we achieved?
During this final phase, the mentor and mentee will conclude their relationship and discuss what they have achieved, learned or gained from this programme, while providing guidelines to the mentee. Both the mentee and mentor will be asked to complete an end-of-project survey.
