So what is the age aspect for? If the topic is race diversity in the workspace, couldn’t it just be an older person of color mentoring another old person? Also, wouldn’t any HR manager be able to create diversity in the workspace or at least give advice regarding the best approach? I like the idea, but it feels a bit too much like it’s trying to create something new and special, that in reality isn’t.

Yeah I tried something like that with my employees, guess what they told me, don’t be strict with people being late (including meetings) we should pay women and minorities more even ones that don’t generate as much money, we shouldn’t value employees by how much money they generate for the company, what grate ideas to run a company into the ground.

No one needs to take the advice and apply it literally. The point is to never stop listening and learning. Best companies encourage, and even require, innovation from the shop floor, and managers are required to at the very least evaluate the ideas submitted.

The problem that screws this whole “theory” is that ANY of these people think they actually know what they are talking about! When you put IDIOTS with IDIOTS ….. you know what you get …… MORE IDIOTS! 🤣

This is actually a really good idea. So many companies have stagnated and died out because they haven’t been able to keep their finger on the pulse in an ever-rapidly changing world. In many spheres of life, when the those at the top stop listening to those at the bottom, stagnation and corruption sets in.

“Reverse mentorship” already exists, it’s called “advising”. This concept isn’t new or news, and it doesn’t really need a new, longer, name either.

Advising often means somebody from outside coming in to help with a specific problem/project.
Reverse mentorship is about inclusion. Hearing the perspectives of minorities or people who are very low in the hirarchy (from within the company) to build stronger interpersonal connections, to improve the overall work environment, the work moral and to grow as a leader ultimately strengthening the whole company.
And yes, this has been around for at least a couple of years too. But this is a channel about education – not a newspaper, isn’t it?

@Miss Regina Erika well said! Inclusion is the keyword here. Let those who don’t often have the chance to speak share their thoughts and ideas.

@Miss Regina Erika That still seems to be covered by things that already exist. People are regularly hired into a company or organization to be advisors on specific issues. These roles often have titles like Director of Diversity, Vice-President of E-Commerce, etc. associated with them.
If the idea is to get somebody specifically who is low on the org chart to give advice to people at the top, that’s called “grass roots”.
Typically “grass roots” meetings are on a larger scale, at least a couple of people to 1 leader, because most people low on the totem pole really only have specific issues they need addressed from the perspective of their role, but don’t have the big picture mindset to really give organization level advice, and therefore all their advices are taken in aggregate.

@AcotoTheTraveler It’s specifically not somebody from outside or who only gets hired to advice others. It’s not about just collecting specific problems employees have.
Reverse mentorship is about inclusion, diversity, different perspectives, learning and expanding your horizon. To e.g. improve the company culture or to create better teams in your division.

@Miss Regina Erika Still seems the same to me, but I appreciate you taking the time to explain your perspective.

As an older person (50) I train and coach a lot of younger people on a daily basis and make it a point to learn a lot from the younger generation as well. It works both ways. Indeed it works best if it’s not a master / apprentice type of situation but often from different parts of the organisation. The more different we are the better I say 🙂

Well, what over name do you know the concept as?
And just because it’s already around for a while doesn’t mean people aren’t allowed to talk about it. She just explained it, never claimed she came up with it or it got invented last week.

She was acting as a consultant and I hope that she was paid for that work. It seems that it is always incumbent upon the marginalized or the radicalized individual, to teach the elite without being compensated equitably.

Speaking of mentorship, Nicola Delic has been rock solid behind me for as long as I’ve known.
If anyone’s considered making some extra cash on the side pending the pandemic, you could try Forex and then check out Nicola Delic on youtube. He’s a renowned forex trader and I actually had him manage my funds some months back where I started out with $1500 and made an extra $750 in a week. That’s 50% of what I invested. Thank me later. 👍

If you think it’s hard to leave a relationship, but you are experiencing any sign of infidelity you need to say to yourself, “I can do better,” and just leave. I had no choice but to contact a professional tech guy who I got introduced to by my friend, he helped me hack my partners phone and I found out he was cheating , I even got to see his deleted messages, pictures and videos. I had no choice but to confront him and leave the relationship Because it became too toxic for me. I know someday I would find the right man for me. Incase you need the same service from the professional tech guy , you can contact him through Gmail : cyberhackanswers @ gmail. com or Text/WhatsApp: +1 626 578 5544, or send him a dm on instagram @blonde_hacker_ infidelity hurts.
stating what you want him to do, he’s affordable. No one deserves to be cheated on. i confronted him . At first it hurt so much, but then suddenly, I felt free and good. Trust me, it’ll feel a lot better once you accept that the relationship is over.
