The knowledge and influence of the mentor supports the mentee in achieving their objectives (these could be personal or task orientated). It is a mutually beneficial and a there are many different types of mentoring relationships, such as peer-to-peer, reciprocal and reverse mentoring, but they all involve learning from each other.
