The exchange relationship between mentors and proteges - the development of a framework - 2000

A model for examining mentoring relationship which encompasses both mentor and protege perspectives is proposed. The model focuses on the exchange of behaviors exibited by both partners in the mentoring relationship. Developing a framework of the exchange between the mentor and protege is important for a number of reasons including the identification of why some relationships become true mentoring relationships and assist individuals in mentoring relationships, and the development of a process to provide guidance to corporations wishing to incorporate mentoring programs
