Compatibility between the needs of the mentee and experience of the mentor is important. Getting on ‘like a house on fire’ is not necessarily effective in the longer term. The mentor must match compatibility with an ability to address the mentee's needs.

Coming from a mind‐set of equal partnership can be effective in growing rapport.

When creating the mentoring ‘contract’ it's important to manage expectations, notably: the type of support and level of advice that a mentor is willing to give a mentee; the role(s) which the mentee expects the mentor to play.

When establishing personal and professional boundaries think about confirming the code of ethics and agreements that will underpin the partnership. Confirming the mentee's objectives and goals, will include: their current role; potential and future roles; networks and relationships; professional development requirements.
