Q: THE IDEAOF A

MENTOR IS
ASSOCIATEDWITH
THE INITIAL
STAGES OF ONES
CAREER. WHAT
ARETHE BENEFITS
OF GETTINGAMENTOR LATER
INLIFE?
A mentorship programme in
the organisation focuses on
both short- and long-term
professional development
goals. Most often, a mentor is a
person at least one level
higher than the mentee in the
organisation. A mentor plays
an important role in shaping
the mentees future in the
organisation. During the
mentorship programme, the
mentor guides his/her mentee
towards self- development and
career growth. This also
creates a safe learning
environment, where the
mentee feels free to discuss
issues openly.
Q: WHAT ARETHE KEY
FEATURES OF AGOOD
MENTORSHIP PROGRAMME?
It is important to plan a
mentoring programme that
aligns with the culture of the
organisation as well as
development needs of the
employees. The mentor has to
be chosen carefully based on
the development plan and
need. The mentor and mentee
need to be explained the pros
and cons of the mentoring
programme. While selecting
mentors, it is important to
select employees who possess
the required knowledge, skills
and experience that would
benefit the mentees and act as
positive role models with a
genuine interest in developing
others. These would be
employees with strong
interpersonal skills, who are
committed and willing to set
aside the time to work with
a mentee.
Q: DOMENTORS ANDMENTEES
REQUIRE ANYTRAININGIN
ORDERTOMAKETHE MOST OF
AMENTORSHIP PROGRAMME?
WHAT SORT OFTRAINING
WOULDTHEY NEED?
The entire mentorship
programme should be
designed in a way that almost
negates the need for a separate
training. A well-designed
programme leads to the
gaining of knowledge and
expertise within a trusting
and supportive mentoring
relationship.
Q: IS MENTORSHIP ALIFE-LONG
JOURNEY OR DOAFEW
MONTHS SUFFICE?
Yes, mentorship is a lifelong
journey. We seek guidance at
all stages of life. While in an
organisation, based on the
capabilities of the employee
and the business need, a
programme is devised in a
structured manner for a
fruitful outcome.
Q: THEY SAYTHATTHERE IS
SOMETHINGTOLEARNFROM
EVERYONE. INVIEWOFTHIS
STATEMENT, DOESN'T IT MAKE
SENSETOHAVE MULTIPLE
MENTORS RATHERTHANFOCUS
ONONE PERSON?
We learn from different people
around us in all walks of life.
But in a formal structure,
depending on the identified
key development areas, every
mentee has the best chosen
mentors. Ultimately, the
mentee does learn from their
colleagues and other
managers at
all levels.
Q: FROMYOUR EXPERIENCE, DO
MENTORS ANDMENTEES
CONNECT BETTERWHENTHEY
SHARE SIMILAR BACKGROUNDS
OR HAVE SOMETHINGIN
COMMON, OR ISTHAT NOT A
CONTRIBUTINGFACTOR?
It is evident that people from
similar backgrounds are
compatible and show better
productivity. But at the same
time, diversity is equally
important when choosing
mentors within organisation.

WHILE GEN Z AS PER
the popular definition is
still a generation in the making,
a large section of it is under the
age group from 12 to 18. They are
forming their opinions and
perceptions of careers and are
mostly known as the connected
generation as well.
The research takes the
grounded theory approach. The
key is to obtain categories with
data and interpret the
interlinkages and develop broad
theoretical linkages. The
substantial use of this method is
when much of the research or
theory is not available in the field
of study or when the study is of
unique/not repeated incidents. 36
youngsters in the age group 14 to
18 were interviewed for the
research. The approach was to
understand their career
aspiration as it is perceived by
them.
The data analysis of interviews
using the major key words and
word clouds, gave a few clear
themes:
0
Freedom: Most of the
respondents felt that they
would like to do a job that offered
a lot of freedom. They had heard
of companies that do not bother
about work hours, leaves,
permissions, and wanted to work
for some company like that. They
felt that they are responsible and
did not want somebody else to
tell them what to do every time.
They wanted to seek feedback,
though, from time to time. They
would require a friend at work
rather than a boss. Many of them
believed that at one point of time,
they aspired to become someone
like Steve Jobs or Zuckerberg.
The other heroes for them were
Anna Hazare and Sachin
Tendulkar. However, many of
them could not relate to Indian
business leaders.
O
The unconventional way:
Around ten of the
participants mentioned about
doing something different. The
key for them was that they would
like to spend their professional
life beyond one organisation.
They also mentioned about
setting up on their own, doing
something different like
becoming a National Geographic
photographer, a hair dresser for
celebrities, bring rural arts to
the forefront, being a image
consultant, etc. Interestingly,
they are able to share things that
were generally not heard of from
the previous generation. Five of
the participants also gave very
conventional prospects like being
a doctor, engineer, IAS
officer, etc.
O
All things nice: While
many of the participants
are still idealistic, it was
interesting to note that more
than 50 per cent of the
participants saw a good life and
good money as drivers for
choosing a career. While
supporting parents, and helping
family might be some of the
values of the previous
generation, especially among the
middle classes, the new middle
class Gen Z, saw career as an
opportunity to create their own
life. Another aspect of this facet
was that they wanted to be
associated with all things nice
as well, which are the symbols of
a good life owning an Audi, or
going for vacation to Europe,
and having a bash. Interestingly,
they were also against people
showing-off.
OThe global edge: Another
interesting aspect that we saw in
the respondents is that many
view their career canvas as
global. They wanted to have a
stint of education abroad, imbibe
global values, and wanted to be
seen as somebody who can
influence at a global level. They
did not bother much about
boundaries that exist between
global job markets and this might
be a reflection of what India
might be tomorrow.
O
Professional commitment:
Many of the Gen Z
participants did not speak about
the value of being in an
organisation for long and they
never got that as a prerequisite
for professional commitment.
Many felt that it is important to
utilise their talent wherever they
are and what matters most is that
they deliver on the commitment
made for that period of time,
irrespective of the tenure.
O
Risk-taking: The other
significant aspect that came
into the picture was that they did
not want to be perceived as laid-
back or unidimensional in
approach. Many wanted to
experiment with a couple of
fields and choose what they
wanted to pursue the most. It
was mostly coming from a fear
that if they choose something
based on others interest, will
they be able to sustain
themselves in those fields? Many,
especially, female respondents
expressed that they were keen to
work with NGOs.
6
Beyond technology: It is a
known fact that most of the
Gen Z is well-versed with
technology in mobile, computing
and the information space.
Interestingly, many did not show
much interest towards
technology. Many felt that since
everyone seems inclined towards
it, it didnt have a novelty factor.
They mentioned about pursuing
interesting avenues like
journalism, photography,
working for the UN, teaching
in Africa, etc.
- The author is associate
director, People Business
Zinnov, announced the findings of their
latest report,Global Roles Benchmarking
Study. The report provides an assessment
of global roles across MNC Global In-house
Centres (GICs) in India, with regards to
depth and variety of global roles across
major functions and industry verticals. The
study was based on an assessment of 20+
GICs in India across key industry verticals
covering a total of 115 global roles.
KEY FINDINGS:
7 The study indicates that most GICs have
primarily been able to achieve either depth
or variety in terms of global roles creation,
but not both, with only ten per cent of GICs
currently falling in the
leadership zone;
7 The internet/software industry continues
to drive a majority of global roles from
India with 59 per cent of all the global
roles considered belonging to this vertical,
followed by telecom/networking/storage
(19 per cent) and healthcare verticals (18
per cent);
7 Global roles are primarily limited to the
top management (VP/SVP) for GICs with
low depth and variety in terms of global
roles creation, but increasingly spread
across senior leadership (sr directors/
directors) and mid-to-senior leadership
levels (engineering/ programme/project
managers etc) for GICs in the leadership
zone;
7 Companies in the leadership zone also
tend to have higher center-level maturity
(i.e. a high level of engineering ownership)
as compared to GICs in other zones.
