And don't forget that 5th mentor archetype! The #peer mentor. Can help with institutional knowledge and problem solving from the point of view of a mentee. # FFL Take peer mentorship online during the pandemic! 3/n
As a mentee, remember to follow the 4 golden rules (especially the time one). Set agendas and communicate goals and problems open and honestly https://hbr.org/2017/11/what-mentors-wish-their-mentees-knew 4/n
When looking for a mentor, consider the CAPE criteria @FutureDocs 5/n
Avoid Mentee Missteps by learning how to positively deal with conflict and overcome low confidence. Peer mentorship and learning to give a "positive no" (credit @WilliamUryGTY) can both help! @JAMA_current https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2600471
