How Mentoring Differs From Coaching

In this topic, you are going to learn the practical differences and blend the two for a balanced development program.
Coaching is more performance driven, designed to improve the professional’s on-the-job performance. Mentoring is more development driven, looking not just at the professional’s current job function but also beyond, taking a more holistic approach to career development. Mentor has more experience than client has, and shares it with more junior or inexperienced employee. While, Coach and client are equals working in partnership. Coach does not require direct experience of client’s role.
