The document discusses the roles and responsibilities of a mentor. It explains that a mentor guides and advises a mentee to help develop their career. There are two main types of mentoring functions: career functions like coaching and exposure that help with career advancement, and psychosocial functions like role modeling and counseling that help a mentee develop competence and identity. The mentor should offer advice to help the mentee develop without making decisions for them or micromanaging. They should also be aware of potential issues in the relationship like overdependence or exploitation.
