What is coaching and mentoring?
These terms are used interchangeably, so people often forget that there is a difference between coaching and mentoring.
Coaching is a process where a trained professional helps individuals to unlock and maximise their potential. A coach does not necessarily need to specialise in a field or profession but is a goal-oriented individual who helps others to achieve their goals.
On the other hand, mentoring is all about helping an individual to improve in a particular field or skill. Here, a mentor is someone who is either a senior or an expert in a given field.
