Any mentoring relationship has its roots in the goals that the mentor and mentee set. Even though the mentee lacks the view of the bigger picture, and might not know what to do to succeed and reach the goals, it is critical that they help in the goal creation process. To help mentors have a place to start, Erica Villalon compiles some of her techniques to get the goals for the mentorship programs.

These tips are what she uses to make business owners reach their desires.

What does the mentee want to accomplish? It is your goal as a mentor to help the mentee clarify what they want to achieve through the program. Know what is their major hindrance of success. Through knowing their major problems, you can develop useful and particular solutions to conquer their issue.

It is important to unpack the problem and reach its root cause. The issues should not be vague like failure to make enough money. Are the goals you have created feasible? Know if you have the resources and time to accomplish the goals. Know if you can fully dedicate yourself till the goals are achieved.

Sometimes goals can be unrealistic. In this case, you need to be honest with your mentee and help them find goals that can be attained. Creating small milestones is important to achieve several goals as they proceed. You also need to create strategies to reach these mini-goals and set reasonable deadlines as well.

Do not give too much time for small goals and do not allocate little time for big milestones. Know when the mentee is ready to start and how much time they are willing to commit for certain sessions. Finally, encourage tracking of progress as Erica Villalon does.
