Mentoring

Mentoring is a tradition that has the test of time—and today, is making a comeback. Back in the 13th century, when judges had to provide for the apprenticeship of lawyers, mentoring was the only way lawyers could learn their craft. Today, although our industry’s training is more formalized, interest in mentoring persists. Why? Because mentoring was, and continues to be, one of the most effective ways to pass on skills, knowledge and wisdom and train the next generation of professionals.

A number of factors have brought mentoring back into vogue: a desire to improve the profession’s public image, and a growing recognition that the profession of Property Management is becoming a REAL career. Companies are now recognizing that mentoring makes good business sense.
