CPD Update
Mentoring – a win-win for all
W
e have all been new to our industry at some point and, if we were lucky enough, we had a mentor to help guide us through those first few awkward days, weeks, months and even years. Eventually we become good enough at our job that it falls on us to teach the new person or, heck, the new generation for those of us who are teachers or management. It is good for the newbies; it is good for us; and it is good for the industry.
Did you also know that you can get points for being a mentor? It is true. So not only do you get to guide eager minds and improve our industry, but you get rewarded for doing so. It is a win for everyone involved. Plus, you get to feel good. Could you ask for anything better? Whether it is through your CIQS Chapter or just taking the new employee under your wing, get out there and mentor someone!
Eventually we become good enough at our job that it falls on us to teach the new person or, heck, the new generation for those of us who are teachers or management. It is good for the newbies; it is good for us; and it is good for the industry.
