The purpose of this assignment is to identify proposed activities and techniques that can be used with the mentee and to confirm you have established a realistic timeline with your mentee. Review the vision statement and short-term and long-term goals as you continue to develop the "Individual Development Plan" mentee. Your responses should provide a clear vision for working with the mentee and meeting the preliminary short-term and long-term goals already established. For this assignment, review the "IDP - Proposed Activities and Techniques" template, complete it, and submit it as directed. This template covers the following sections:

Activities to Support Goals

In the template, detail the proposed activities to meet the mentee's short-term and long-term goals and have two for each type of goal. Make sure they are realistic activities that you can and will implement with the mentee.

Technique Research

In addition, research a minimum of three articles that support coaching and/or mentoring techniques. The research should produce information regarding two coaching and two mentoring techniques that would assist in meeting the desired outcome for the plan. The textbook can be one of the sources.

Timeline Confirmation

Prior to submitting the templated assignment, be sure to agree on a timeline with the mentee in order to implement a minimum of two activities with them. The timeline is not required to be included in the submission, but it should provide a clear frame of reference for you and the mentee to achieve success. Implementing the activities with the mentee will not necessarily require an extensive time commitment, but the time spent should provide the opportunity to use mentoring or coaching techniques to support the mentee.
