Synopsis:

Many professionals who have successful career often share that they would not have got there without the advice and guidance of other wiser men and women. These people act as their mentors, supporting them in developing new skills, navigating political environments, challenging ideas, and expanding network. Nevertheless, mentoring does not always guarantee success as it depends on the mentor, the mentee as well as their mentoring relationship.  In this plenary, the benefits of mentoring, the essential elements and other influencing factors (eg. Gender, organizational context) for its success are discussed.
