Notes

Practice is defined as the actual application of an idea, belief or method as opposed to theories about the application use.
Repeated exercise in or performance of an activity or skill so as to acquire or maintain proficiency in it.

Wise practices are best defined as “locally-appropriate actions, tools, principles or decisions that contribute significantly to the development of sustainable and equitable conditions” (Calliou and Wesley-Esquimaux 2010, 19)

The mentoring arrangement would be customized to address the organization, community, personal level
It would leverage an understanding of the current environment
Provide tools for mentors that are relevant to the level of mentoring they are doing and to the structure of the mentoring arrangement

The mentoring arrangement would be customized in alignment with organizational values and organizational standards
There is no cookie cutter approach where one size fits all
Wise practices may include type of mentoring, duration of relationship, reporting/recording, structure, etc.

The mentoring arrangement would be customized in alignment with association values and standards
There is no cookie cutter approach where one size fits all
Wise practices may include type of mentoring, duration of relationship, reporting/recording, structure, etc.
Some associations may be professional associations such as Engineers
Other association may be a group of service providers - Construction Association

The mentoring arrangement would be customized in alignment with professional values and standards
There is no cookie cutter approach where one size fits all
Wise practices may include type of mentoring, duration of relationship, reporting/recording, structure, etc.
Professional standards may include examples such as CPAs, Engineers, Nurses, IT professionals, etc.
Each would have their own standards as they are applicable to their profession and the wise practices for the profession would need to be in alignment

The mentoring arrangement from a personal standard viewpoint needs to take into account that each person is unique and the mentoring arrangement would need to be customized to that person
Each person would have their own standards and would be looking for a mentoring arrangement that would meet those standards
Communication, relationship building, personalities, communication styles, goals and objectives

Behaviour is defined as: the way in which one acts or conducts oneself, especially toward others.
Wise practices are defined as:“locally-appropriate actions, tools, principles or decisions that contribute significantly to the development of sustainable and equitable conditions”
A mentoring arrangement is the coming together of two different people leveraging the “gift of mentoring” to learn and grow personally and professionally
Behaviour could be construed as a wise practice based on the behaviour being positive
Behaviour as a wise practice would drive the success factor of the mentoring arrangement

Congruence is the matching of experience and awareness
Congruence in the wake of a mentoring arrangement would speak to the relationship and the matching of mentor and mentee
Congruence would also speak to the need for both participants in the mentoring arrangement to be in the moment and to hear, sense and feel what the other is
Demonstrating your awareness of self and others would assist in the success factors of the mentoring arrangement
