Share background information about yourselves. Discuss both of your views regarding different mentor models (found at the Mentor Match website) and the mentee’s desires for this particular mentor relationship. Try to keep communication open and come to an agreement as to how this mentor relationship will continue (ie: not a good match – no future meetings; possibly a good match – let’s set a time to meet again for a longer amount of time; definitely seems to be a good match – can I contact you whenever I need you or let’s set up some regular times to meet.)
