Mentee

The mentee is the student of the mentor.

The term mentoring describes the development process in an organization where an experienced person (mentor) passes on his/her knowledge and skills on to a new/unexperienced person (mentee).

The overall aim of a mentoring program is to develop and promote the menteeā€™s personal and professional growth within or outside your organization.

As described the mentor refers to the role of a personal trainer whose experience supports the development of the mentee. There is also the cross-mentoring approach out there where experienced managers from different departments or companies and their high potentials (mentees) come together for tandems. Cross Mentoring usually is an externally organized program in which the tandems are formed in cross-functional and cross-industry teams.
