Abstract

An understanding of the process of mentoring can be useful for career development in the clinical, research and educational arenas of the nursing profession. The roles of mentor and mentee/protege as guide and learner are described. Several purposes for mentoring are discussed and five stages of the mentoring relationship are delineated. Potential problems, obstacles and factors which facilitate successful mentoring are explored. Through mentoring, individual, organizational and professional development can be fostered in cost-effective and fulfilling ways.
