Establishing & Maintaining Boundaries
Boundaries are key to a healthy mentoring relationship. They ensure that expectations are reasonable and well understood, leading to a more effective relationship and helping to build trust between mentors and mentees. This training expands upon the establishing boundaries activity conducted in Mentoring 101, giving mentors the opportunity to learn about different types of boundaries, how and when to establish them, and to practice using boundaries in challenging scenarios.
It is recommended participants attend a Mentoring 101 session before attending Establishing & Maintaining Boundaries.
