Cultural competence in mentorship involves more than just awareness of different cultural backgrounds. It’s about understanding how these backgrounds influence the perspectives, experiences, and needs of mentees. This understanding is crucial in establishing trust, respect, and a meaningful connection in the mentor-mentee relationship. It’s about seeing the world through their eyes and using this insight to guide them effectively.
