Do mentoring connections between people in different locations work?
Many of the matches made in the MS PHD’S formal network are between people who have not yet met. They communicate by e-mail and telephone. Naturally, because it can be harder this way, these matches can be more difficult to maintain. However, many people are located in places with few other people, so there may not be a good mentoring candidate available. Some mentees have found e-mail connections to work, as they can take their time to express themselves, and some find it easier to open up about their concerns by writing them down. The ideal mentoring connection will occur at the JGOFS Conference when mentees and mentors will meet to go over an individual’s leadership development plan and discuss progress. We have received reports from many satisfied mentees who have mentors far away.
