Abstract
Recent systems development projects are becoming increasingly difficult and project managers (PMs) are forced to deal with more difficult situations than they have experienced in old projects. Conventional project reviews and classroom training are not sufficient to train PMs that can handle critical matters. Mentoring activities are used to complement PM training programs. Mentoring is a series of activities in which experienced mentors provide inexperienced mentees with various support from social and psychological points of view for carrier development. We explain our company's mentoring approach and operational issues identified during the implementation.
