What are the benefits of having a mentor?

When is the right time to volunteer to be a mentor yourself?

Today's episode of the Candid Comms podcast is the season two finale and features Melisa Kakas, Internal Communications Manager at British Business Bank.

I have the pleasure of mentoring Melisa through the Institute of Internal Communication's (IoIC) mentoring scheme.

During our conversation we discuss:

• What are the benefits of being mentored?
• When is the right time to put yourself forward to mentor others?
• How to create a successful mentoring relationship
• The importance of trust
• Why accountability is important
• The role confidence plays in a mentoring partnership

and much more.

Do let me know what you think of this episode and don't forget to rate, review and follow, so other Comms pros can benefit too.
