Creation of a mentoring process framework

[kefortney]

write out a document on how this might work, and an implementation plan. Here is something to start with, but explore beyond it:

Define Goals and Structure

• Clarify the purpose, roles, and responsibilities of mentors and mentees.
• Establish a timeline, milestones, and the format of mentoring (e.g., peer-to-peer or group).

Develop Resources and Training

• Create onboarding materials, templates, and guides for both mentors and mentees.
• Provide training on mentorship best practices, communication, and feedback.

Implement Feedback and Evaluation Mechanisms

• Design tools for tracking progress, gathering feedback, and evaluating effectiveness.
• Regularly review and refine the framework based on participant input.

Pilot and Document the Framework

• Test the process with a small group, collect insights, and make improvements.
• Document the framework clearly for consistent use and future iterations.
