Shortening the road for someone else.
A good mentor does not carry people. They share maps: what the road looks like, where it is steep, and which turns are worth taking.
Mentorship is one of the four areas of interest behind this platform's community work. No formal mentoring programme is running yet. For now, this page gathers the resources that exist and invites people who want to mentor, or be mentored, to say so.

Mentorship and the shortened road
A good mentor does not carry you. They hand you a better map. And those of us with experience owe that map to people who have never had one.
