As a company mentor, you learn to be aware of what is going on within yourself. Mentors need this in order to accompany other people without unconsciously bringing their own likes and dislikes, moods and needs into a situation. You can adapt to another person, analyze their situation and recognize possible difficulties and disruptive factors.
In order to enable constructive collaboration as a company mentor, they need to be able to establish and maintain a constructive working relationship with their clients. On this basis, they jointly develop the work assignment, define the objective of the coaching or mentoring and regulate the formal conditions, such as the frequency of the sessions.
During support, they are always aware of their role and, on the one hand, ensure that clients find their own solutions. On the other hand, it is their job to demand that clients actually carry out the agreed tasks and tackle the discussed steps. This requires good social skills and the ability to deal with inconsistencies, conflicts and resistance.
Last but not least, the in-company mentor is also prepared for possible self-employment during the training. They learn how to formulate their offer, advertise themselves and manage appropriate administration.
