Thanks to new technology and a variety of innovative programs, it’s easier to find a mentor suited to your needs
Until recently, if you wanted someone to help guide you in your career, the pool of available mentors was limited by geographical location—specifically by your university. And the pool of possible mentors who shared similar values, experiences and backgrounds with you was even smaller.
Now, thanks to mobile devices, email and other technologies, it’s much easier to find the best mentor for your unique needs. You can even find mentors who offer just short-term guidance on specific topics, peer-to-peer mentors or reverse mentoring relationships in which early career psychologists guide already established ones.
APA divisions, psychology leaders, students and others have developed innovative mentoring approaches to help in any form, area or level you need. Here are some of the most interesting developments. Click for full article…
