In this episode of Leader Up, host David Howey is joined by two insightful guests from the Center for Army Leadership: Janetta Harris, an Instructional System Specialist, and Russ Scott, a Program Manager Liaison, both from the Center for Army Leadership (CAL) Leader Development Division. Together, they dive into the vital topic of mentorship—what it is, how it differs from coaching and counseling, and why it’s essential for professional and personal growth.
Key discussion points include:
• The distinctions between counseling, coaching, and mentoring as outlined in Army Techniques Publication 6-22.
• How mentorship relationships can form organically or through formal programs, and the benefits of both approaches.
• The critical role of trust, communication, and respect in fostering successful mentoring relationships.
• Practical tips for mentors and mentees, including setting boundaries, providing feedback, and navigating challenges.
• The four stages of mentoring and how they evolve as both the mentor and
mentee grow.
Whether you're seeking guidance as a mentee, considering becoming a mentor, broader implications of mentorship in leadership, this episode is packed with actionable insights and inspiration. Tune in to discover how mentorship can transform individuals, organizations, and the Army as a whole.
