Is Poor Mentor Matching Like a Bad Blind Date?
You match partners thinking they'll be perfect but then the partnership fails and you don't know why. I can't tell you how many people we talk to think their people didn't care about having mentors when really it was the programs reputation of poor matching that crashed it before it even got started. It is a painful thought to consider enduring a bad blind date for a year, but that can be the outcome of poor matching. People cannot endure them so they simply don't meet.
Want to make sure that you don't force the bad blind date on your key executives? Then follow these five steps to ensure a terrific match.
Poor matching is the number one cause of mentoring partnership failure. Partnership failure reflects poorly on you as program administrator and on your program and organization at large.
