Abstract
Mentoring is a mutually beneficial learning relationship in which a mentor and mentee work together to accomplish predetermined objectives that will advance the mentee's knowledge, skills, and capacity for thought. When Odysseus, the king of Ithacus, embarked on the Trojan War, the concept of mentoring was born in Greek mythology. He entrusted his friend Mentor with the protection of his son Telemachus and his own royal household. Because of his excellent performance of the duties assigned to him, the word Mentor became a noun in the English language by the late 1700s, meaning "wise counselor." Nowadays, a mentor is a more seasoned individual who serves as a mentee's instructor, friend, or counselor. Peer mentoring, group mentoring, casual mentoring, and formal mentoring are some of the various forms of mentoring. There are several ways to categorize mentors based on the part they play in the mentee's life. Making use of the required abilities facilitates effective mentoring. There are several advantages to mentoring in nursing, and a mentor may be a great resource for novice nurses. They can offer the young person assistance, direction, and counsel as well as assist in the development of fundamental abilities and knowledge required for one's future profession. A competent mentor will always provide information that can guide the young person through a career in nursing. They can provide temporary assistance, offer insightful criticism, and assist the mentee in creating a career strategy and goal-setting.
