Yesterday, I had the chance to present at the Federal Mentoring Roundtable. Back in the fall, I blogged a bit about the results of our pilot. Here’s a more comprehensive view of it, including a few of the more interesting demographic details, agencies represented, etc:
Any of the results jump out at you or strike you as interesting?
The Senate is backing a proposal that would allow Feds to “phase into retirement” by mentoring while you work. Perhaps this will spark added interest for potential mentors?
I like the idea of encouraging and inspiring mentorship! There seems to be a very positive response.
I can’t remember if I signed up or not, but it disappoints me that I would probably have to do that sort of thing on my own time since my management would not support me using ‘their’ time for it. It would not be ‘productive’ for them 🙁
