Study Explores Professional Mentor-Mentee Relationships In 2019
Many successful people attribute part of their professional success to having a mentor.
To learn more about why this is, Olivet Nazarene University recently surveyed 3,000 people about professional mentor-mentee relationships to see what they look like in 2019.
Here’s what they found:
76% of people think mentors are important, however only 37% of people currently have one.
Most people opt for same sex mentors (69% women, 82% men)
People w/mentors are happier at their current jobs than those without.
Only 14% of mentor relationships started by asking someone to my mentor. 61% of those relationships developed naturally.
Take a look at the full report and let me know if this is something you would be interested in sharing with your audience or if you have any follow up questions that I can answer.
