| dc.description.abstract | Purpose: The purpose of this study conveys the continuity of leadership in the organization.
This is by ensuring that the outgoing leaders who are mentors ensure that upcoming leaders who
are mentees would continue with the smooth running of the organization. Mentoring is a holistic
concept related to corporate development, personal enhancement, and professional improvement.
Methodology: This study utilized a descriptive research design and reviewed available literature
by reviewing two major types of mentoring, first the career coach and professional helper
mentorship, Secondly, psychological mentoring gives personal and cognitive aspects.
Findings: The study found out that these types of mentorships aim at establishing an
understanding of a company's operations such as political and cultural organizational aspects and
individual support, improving confidence, seeking professional identity, and role modeling. This
leads to a model that would help the mentor who is an all-around individual to instill various
skills and knowledge on a mentee to improve their general performance.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: This study recommends mentorship be
used in any organization as a leadership model to keep the organizational momentum and
maintain its status quo. The government and policymakers could document the use of mentorship
as a policy for smooth running of institutions to avoid waste of resources and misuse of power to
those in leadership as they will be responsible to mentor others. Researchers could deep deeper
into this area to add knowledge and filled the gap of poor leadership. | en_US |
