Virtual Mentoring Essentials

(2 courses, subtitled in Japanese)

In the realm of mentorship, a more personal and intimate relationship is required, as opposed to the manager-subordinate dynamic. Particularly in the post-COVID era with the prevalence of remote work, mentoring has emerged as an effective means of talent development. 

This microlearning course provides an overview of mentoring, including the fundamentals, strategies for establishing meaningful relationships, and the positive outcomes it can yield. Humor and real-life examples are incorporated to enhance the learning experience.

He believes that mentoring can be done quickly and with a traditional approach, but quickly ends up in trouble.
