Episode description

In Homer’s poem ”The Odyssey ” Odysseus had a tough time finding his way home after the Trojan War what with all those monsters threatening to derail his journey. But Odysseus at least had left a wise and trusted fellow named Mentor to be the guardian and teacher of his son Telemachus. Modern employees need mentors as much as Telemachus especially in these times of upheaval. In fact mentoring is just as important as ever for younger workers -- and for organizations themselves -- according to experts at Wharton and elsewhere.
