In mentoring, objectives are identified, defined, guided and counselled by the mentor. for example, Mentee says, "I want to become a movie star, for that first thing I've to do is improve my voice". Mentor (ideally a popular actor) responds, "I'm sorry, as a mentor, I recommend you to improve your physical fitness before working on your voice."
