THE MENTORING CYCLE
EARLY DEVELOPMENT
In this first awkward stage of the mentor/mentee relationship each of you is feeling the other out. It can often feel like that first round in a boxing match when you just circle and study each others movements, expressions and reactions. Topics to be aware of during this stage are...
1. Who is Who? - Role Clarification
All partners in the mentor/mentee relationship should and accept their respective roles...
MENTEE/YOUTH - Friend
MENTOR - Caring Adult Friend
PARENT - Supporter of the match
STAFF - Liaison between partners in the match relationship, facilitator, resource person, supporter of the match
