Looking to assign mentors to your new hires? There are a few key characteristics to look for. A mentor should:

  • Act as a role model and lead by example.
  • Set realistic career goals.
  • Provide the necessary guidance in a clear and supportive manner.
  • Provide constructive feedback.
  • Help mentees overcome career challenges.
  • Provide a safe space for mentees to share their mistakes.

Make work fun

Every year, November 13 is observed as World Kindness Day. You can promote acts of kindness among your employees by setting up a kindness wall that encourages them to leave compliments, positive notes, or appreciation for their peers. You can also organize "random acts of kindness" challenges and reward employees who participate.
