ABSTRACT
Q9 Act upon advice and feedback and be open to coaching and mentoring. Learning objectives
To promote an understanding of:
the central importance of the ‘professional conversation’ based on a relationship of trust and mutual respect;
the need to adopt an appropriate mentoring model;
the need to develop a professional identity rooted in a culture of experience.
What experience and history teach is this — that people and governments never have learnt anything from history, or acted on principles deduced from it.
G. W. Hegel (1822–1830 p. 21)
