Mentoring Program Development Project
Develop the structure for mentoring programs including: * Life cycle of a mentoring program - what are the steps from matching to communications, getting useful feedback and reporting * Define the specific activities that will be done along the way (ice-breakers, when to ask what questions, structure for providing feedback) * Mentoring software features - automated reminders (+ when to send), suggestions based on activity, other ideas For example, we will answer questions like: * How do we help participants quickly identify their own personality type? their mentor's personality? Then provide related info * What type of ice-breaker activities should we include in the system? * What types of reminders are needed? What's essential or too much? * Should we have a checklist and what should it include? curriculum for mentoring (what's essential vs. topic-specific?) * What are the stages of mentoring? (related questions for mentors and mentees) > We would like students to prepare a survey for mentoring program managers and we will contact them for responses. The final deliverable would be a clear process for mentors and mentees to go through. It can be a set of steps with questions, self-assessments, ice-breakers, recommended activities, checklists and more. Students will study the research materials available online regarding various mentoring program structures to define the ultimate process.
