In general, all communications and interactions between mentor and mentee need to be governed by a clear understanding of the purpose of the mentorship relationship: That is, the mentor is expected, to the best of their ability, to provide guidance, expertise and advice to the mentee, and the mentee, in turn, is required to utilise this guidance to the best of their ability. It is in the interests of both parties to establish clear boundaries, expectations and rules ahead of the scheduled sessions.
