Mentoring 101
February 10, 2008 by Dr. Gabe Veas
Many times, after I speak with someone about my life as a mentor, the following questions usually come up:
1. What advice would you give me, if I was interested in mentoring someone?
2. What do you teach someone that you mentor?
3. What can I do to make mentoring a reality in my school, business, non-profit, church, or government agency?
In the future, responses will be provided addressing these types of questions. In this light, I recently I had the opportunity to speak with Dr. David Long, California’s Secretary of Education, regarding the state of education in California and the need for site-based mentoring throughout the public school system.
