+# Mentoring
+
+**_Posted on 31 Mar, 2024_**
+
+Collected in-progress thoughts on mentoring (both sides).
+
+## 2-way street
+
+- Push people out-of-their-comfort-zone, make them a little bit uncomfortable.
+- Showing vulnerability as a mentor. None of us have all the answers.
+- "I have feedback for you" as a phrase can be intimidating. Couple of pointers while giving feedback:
+  - Ask permission
+  - Genuinely care.
+  - +ve intent
+  - Give feedback early and often (do not delay)
+  - Be to the point
+
+## Questions to ask the mentee
+
+- What do you want to achieve, get out of mentorship?
+- No firm goals & expectations can lead to disappointment & guilt later on where both mentor & mentee feel like they were not able to get the most out of the relationship.
