Mentoring is an interactive process tailored to the individual. It is a process with
strict <A HREF="Ethics of Mentoring.htm">ethics</A>
and should not be entered into lightly by the mentor. No one becomes a mentor
overnight but rather must go through a
<A HREF="Growth of a Project Management Mentor.htm">
learning and personal growth process</A>.
Mentoring requires of the mentor the following:
<OL>
<LI>Understanding what is needed by the person being mentored
<LI>Finding a way to help that person find a solution to those needs
<LI>Developing that person's skills in finding these solutions
for themself.
</OL>
<P>Also, the person being mentored is challenged to commit the time and attention
necessary to benefit from the relationship and is well served by following

<P>All healthy folks have a Psychological Type but not all of us know what it is,
what effects it has on our daily life, how to deal with the Psychological
Type diversity we encounter among others, and how to benefit from this material.
<P>My practice invoves (1)administering the MBTI Questionaire including
a two-hour tutorial and feedback session; and
(2) providing individually tailored follow-up mentoring.
<P>The creator of Psychological Type, Carl G. Jung, believed we all
have a life challenge to know our Psychological Type and to specialize
in that type. My practice helps people along this pilgrimage.

<P>Twice a year (Spring and Fall) a semester long, one-night a week
class is offerred that teaches the skills of high performing
team members.
<P>This class is especially interesting and challenging since the
American society does not provide this material in either the
primary, secondary or university educational systems. Folks just
find themselves thrown into a team situation in the business world
without any training or support.
