Notes

Without it the full benefits of the mentoring arrangement can not be realized
The promise of confidentiality allows a sense of trust to develop over time
The more trust the more truthful the discussions
Confidentiality is a component of ethical behavior and part of the wise practices for ethics in mentoring guidelines.

The waving of confidentiality is not a decision to take lightly
In some cases the mentee may be willing to share person stories that would demonstrate the value that mentoring has played in their life
Testimonials
Communicating the potential outcomes should it be waived
