So they were trying to re-invent themselves and their universe....Science fiction was a big help."(Vonnegut 101).

Heinlein begins by claiming historical inevitability for his Novum. Once our decadent civilization falls, the veterans; as the faction best equipped to counter anarchy, will simply take over

One thing I believe is a necessity in growing up is having a mentor. Having a mentor is, not only, beneficial for the mentee but also the mentor. Being a mentor is a learning experience for everyone participating, it helps people grow as a person and friendships are created when a bond if formed. Some people might think it's a waste of time for a child or that it'll never work out for a troubled delinquent but based on the research I've done, I have proven them wrong. Through-out this paper I will provide the pros and cons of mentoring and how they affect both mentor and mentee. To back up my proposal that mentoring is supporting, I will supply examples to answer the question: Is mentoring really important?

Helpful Mentor My mentor Deb, understood that I struggled being confident when I interacted with patients. Knowing that about me, Deb found ways to help me improve my confidence, especially the times I had to be the nurse. Taking on the role of a nurse during admissions was nerve-racking, but as I continued admitting patients during clinicals, I began to feel more relaxed and confident. Deb always made sure that I was learning something new and would have me set up goals for myself each clinical day.

Chapter 5: Are You a Mentor? , provides advice on how to and how “not to” find a mentor. Having mentorship is important to career succession, but what is the best way to find and maintain a mentor. Since, unfortunately, women seem to have more difficulty than men in finding a mentor, Sandberg suggests that rather than asking someone to be your mentor, women should ” Excel and you will get a mentor.” She emphasizes to do good work, ask profound questions and always be respectful of you mentors time in order to maintain a mentor. Chapter 6:

Mike should have fostered an environment that allowed communication up and down the ladder and for him to communicate clearly with his superiors. A few employees around Mike noticed the project was in trouble but failed to speak up and let him know the project was derailed. As a junior (new) project manager, Mike in an effort to establish a positive communication network should have sought out those with whom he trusted for advice or some honest non-attributional feedback. It is easier to ask for advice than help saving an expensive

Mike wanted to interject multiple times when others talked and the majority of the time it was to talk about something not related to the discussion. By using the right tone and a sense of respect with Mike, Michael White was able to restructure the way Mike interacted with the family. When Michael White asked Debbie “are you surprised he’s loyal?” and “have you noticed Mike being able to do for himself more?”

When your values are clear to you, making decisions become easier,” says Roy E. Disney. Indeed, most of us have and shared different values, which can be social, political, economic, and so on. Albert Camus (translated by Matthew Ward 1989) in his book The Stranger tells the readers a story about a young man called Mersault. Mersault is the main protagonist in Albert Camus’s book The Stranger. Mersault is represented as an ordinary man even though he does not act like others. He is a nonconformist and does not want to play the game that every individual is playing in one’s society, which is to choose one side and sometimes to hold belief that they do not even agree with. The title of his book already tells us a lot about the main protagonist,

Jenny’s reaction to Michael’s rejection: If the therapeutic relationship is uncomfortable, Michael should refer Jenny on to someone else, as this could impair judgement, treatment and diagnosis.

Mentorship is very important in the workplace especially in the area of training and development. The mentor-protégé relationship is a much needed relationship that begins in the early career stage and this relationship involves the current or new employees and the supervisor or other colleagues that provide work-related guidance. The relationship itself is comprehensive and involves “educational, occupational, physical, social, and spiritual development” (Greenhaus,, Callanan, & Godshalk, 2010, p 211). One of the initial task of the early career the establishment of the career field which involves the gaining of the workplace competence, learn what is needed to excel in the organization, and to gain acceptance in the workplace to be recognized as the valued employee. There are many ways of achieving the above mentioned advantages in the workplace which one main method is through the use of the mentorship program.

As part of my introduction, I would like to mention that my research project is about mentoring where I have chosen ‘questioning’ as my strategy. In this report, I will discuss in detail about my ‘Mentoring through Questioning’, which is a key for my research project report. Here, I will cover the project’s context in which it was set, my aims and focus of the project, my justification on why I have chosen mentoring through questioning and the types of questions being used during this project, in support of the relevant literature. And then eventually, I will mention about the interactive sessions between a mentor and mentee, the reflection or the perspectives, specifying the self-analysis as well as the required feedback from mentee as part of the research strategy. Later, I will conclude this report by mentioning about the effectiveness of mentoring sessions and the future actions planned for my skills development.

In society there are people who lead with authority and those who follow. Parents, teachers, religious leaders, and government officials are just a few of the people in society that provide people with a sense of right and wrong, giving advice and guidance through hardship. Society is grateful for those who they believe are all-knowing individuals who will only do right by them. These teachers and government officials in society are the equivalent to “Old Ones” in Robert Heinlein’s Stranger in a Strange Land. They are the ones the Martians trust to guide them, and rightfully so as their creditability is built upon the fact the use the idea of grok, or fully understand situation, before acting or passing judgement on it. These reputable figureheads lead the Martian society, teach religion, philosophy and all the other fundamentals of life. Valentine Michael Smith raised by these Old Ones, a human completely immersed into Maritain society. When brought to Earth it is seen quickly how different Mike thinks from humans, not being bound by their societal norms growing up. Those with authority in our society, whoever they may be, are supposed to protect their people’s freedom yet often they force their ideals onto society, confining people without them even knowing. By keeping Mike on Mars for the first twenty years of his life the Old Ones did free him from the constraints of the earthily society, however they also confined him to their way of life.
