After looking at the "Workplace Mentoring" Wikipedia page, I thought there were some good aspects to it, but there was plenty of room for improvement. The following is a list of possible ways to improve the page:
- •The way the page was organized, with the different sections was a good concept but not executed well. For example, the history section isn’t really about the history of workplace mentoring, rather, it is a very brief paragraph saying the concept has grown.
- •The “examples of workplace mentoring” section listens different types or categories of workplace mentoring, but no real world examples. I think real world examples would be extremely beneficial and would add depth to the page.
- •The Effects section is incomplete and should not be a subtitle under history. I like the pros and cons section and maybe effects should be combined with the pros and cons?
- •There should be examples of informal and formal mentoring. We should also discuss the benefits and drawbacks of both in their respective sections.
- •Some definitions and explanations lack citations and need to be confirmed.
- •In the first paragraph, it says mentoring can be done in two ways – informal and formal – but later on the page additionally describes relational mentoring and reverse marketing.
- •The definition of workplace mentoring is taken from a training manual from Vantage Financial Consultants.
- •The sources regarding the pros and cons are quite old and probably could be updated. Some pros and cons seem more like opinions and not facts.
