Mentoring Objectives & Scope

I would lean towards tailoring something to the individual. Everyone has different needs, wants and interests. I've had two really great mentors in my life, both were challenging people bringing different perspectives to my development. At the same time, both were and have been incredibly supportive over the years. I'd like to bring that same level of support and perspective to someone's professional development.
