(NMC 2008)
What is a mentor?
Definition:
‘A person who is required by a professional association
to be appointed to guide a candidate through their
programme of study, leading to a professional
qualification .’
(Parsloe & Wray 2005)

Leadership & Mentorship
 Nursing leadership must first understand the "whole picture" by
recognising the close inter-relationships between leadership,
mentorship, and organisational culture.
 As leaders in the acute and community care settings, professional
nurses should ensure that mentoring is embedded in the culture
within which it is to exist, such that mentoring goals and values are
aligned with the organisational values.
(Jill & Bally 2007)
32
Transformational Leadership
4 elements of transformational leadership:
1. Individualised Consideration – the degree to which the leader acts
as a mentor or coach and listens to the individuals concerns and
needs. The leader gives empathy, support and keeps communication
open.
2. Intellectual Stimulation – Such leaders encourages the individual
to be innovative and creative. They encourage new ideas and never
criticise them publicly for the mistakes committed by them. The
leaders focus on solving problems and do not focus on blame. They
have no hesitation in discarding an old practice set by them if it is
found ineffective.
33
Transformational Leadership
3. Inspirational Motivation – the degree to which the leader articulates a vision
that is appealing and inspiring to others. Leaders with inspirational motivation,
challenge individuals to leave their comfort zones, communicate optimism
about future goals, and provide meaning for the task at hand.
4. Idealised Influence – the degree to which the leader acts as a role model. If
the leader gives respect and encourages others to be better, those influenced
will then go to others and repeat the positive behaviour, passing on the
leadership qualities for other followers to learn.
34
Learning Theories
35
Theory
Proponent
Main Belief
Behaviourist
Pavlov, Skinner
Repetition is important in learning, especially skills
-Positive reinforcement and praise cement learning
and shapes behaviour
Social learning
Bandura
People acquire behaviours through the observation
Experiential
Kolb, Dewey
Learning is an active process that occurs as a
result of experience and reflection
Humanist
Rogers, Maslow,
Knowles
-People learn best by participation and cooperation
-Atmosphere & climate of the classroom is
important
-The relationship with the teacher is important
-Anxiety affects learning
Cognitive
Gagne, Brunner
Cognitive theories argues that learning involves
mental processes such as perception, reasoning,
memory and information processes. Material
should be presented in a logical sequence. Move
from the simple to the complex.
(Walsh 2014)
Establishing effective working relationships
You are a new student on a placement & you are
meeting your mentor for the first time.
 What is the worst possible thing that could happen
at this first encounter?
 What is the best possible thing that could happen at
this first encounter?
37
The Student
Students describe their first day as:





Scary
Frightening
Terrifying
Anxiety provoking
And they feel uncertain how ward functions &
what they are going to learn
38
Student & Mentor Relationship
Levett-Jones et al (2009) in their study found staff
student relationships were the most important
influence on students’ sense of belonging and learning.
39
Meeting the student for the first time
The first meeting between mentor and student should
establish rapport
How do we achieve a rapport with the student?
40
Meeting the student for
the first time
“befriending” your student encourages him/her to feel
welcome & confident in the environment and to ask
questions or reveal worries leading to increased
confidence and greater likelihood of interaction with
other team members and effective participation in
general activities
41
 It is YOUR workplace!
You are familiar with the environment, routine and
culture.
 The student is a visitor!
42
Learning Opportunities
Make a list of learning opportunities available in your
practice area - i.e. what experiences, resources,
activities etc. are available to students that will help
increase their professional competence?
43
Key characteristics - mentor/mentee relationship
Patience
Maturity
Sense of humour
Enthusiasm
Assertiveness
Non-threatening/nonjudgmental
Positive attitude
Knowledgeable
Respectful of peers
Flexibility
Clinical expertise
Advocate for learner
Objectivity
Professionalism
Organisation
44
Learning styles
People learn in different ways and may have more than one
learning style (Honey & Mumford, 1988)
Honey & Mumford (1988) identified 4 key learning styles:
1. Activists,
2. Theorists
3. Reflectors
4. Pragmatists..
45
Learning Styles
Why are learning styles important?
 Students learn better and more quickly if the teaching methods used
match their preferred learning styles.
 As learning improves, so too does self esteem. This has a further positive
effect on learning.
 Students who become bored with learning may become interested once
again.
 The student-mentor relationship can improve because the student is more
successful and is more interested in learning.
(Sue Davidoff and Owen van den Berg 1990)
http://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/think/methodology/learning_style.shtml
46
Learning Styles cont..
 Activists – are those people who learn by doing. They like to get ‘stuck in’
and actively involved in their learning experience. More receptive to
simulation, case studies and role modeling.
 Reflectors – More cautious, learn by observing and thinking about their
learning experience. Reflective journal help them to learn
 Pragmatists – “Like to try out new ideas and engage in problem solving”
(Walsh 2014 page 99)
 Theorists – “They like to consider problems and try to understand concepts
and integrate them into their thinking. They learn from logic and facts via
lectures and reading” (Walsh 2014 page 99)
(Walsh 2014)
47
Learning styles cont..
 Visual
Students may prefer a visual way of learning.
- look at the teacher's face intently
- like looking at wall displays, books etc.
- often recognize words by sight
- use lists to organize their thoughts
- recall information by remembering how it was set out on a page
Originates from the work of Dr's Bandler, R. and Grinder, J. in the Field of Neuro-Linguistic Programming
48
Learning Styles cont..
 Auditory
Students may prefer an auditory way of learning.
- like the teacher to provide verbal instructions
- like dialogues, discussions and plays
- solve problems by talking about them
- use rhythm and sound as memory aids
49
Learning styles cont..

Kinesthetic & Tactile
Students may prefer a kinesthetic (moving) or tactile way of learning.
Kinesthetic
- learn best when they are involved or active
- find it difficult to sit still for long periods
- use movement as a memory aid
Tactile
- use writing and drawing as memory aids
- learn well in hands-on activities like projects and demonstrations
50
Preparing for the Orientation
and the Initial Interview
51
The Initial Interview
Initial interview
The student’s initial interview must take place with the mentor during
the first week of the placement .
You will now watch a video clip.
In small groups discuss the following:• What is your overall impression of the interview?
• What would you do if a student behaved like this?
• What skills did the mentor use to get the student on track?
• Do you think it was an effective first interview?
• What would you do differently?
52
What Next?
53
What next?
1. Read Chris’ On-going Achievement Record (OAR)
2. Identify 5 essential skills the student can complete in
your practice area. One of these must be an essential
skill that the ‘student’ has not achieved in the
previous placement.
3. Complete Sections A, B, C, D in the Workbook
54
Consider
 How you are going to achieve the coaching and
Assessment activities in your work place.
 If you foresee any issues with completing these
talk to your group tutor.
