1: mentor<strong>in</strong>g: the evolvement of a network of mentors 23<br />
their lives and also work with multiple preceptors, coaches, and role<br />
models. If someone is fortunate enough to have a long-term mentor<strong>in</strong>g<br />
relationship, then this is a classic mentor–mentee relationship. It is<br />
<strong>in</strong> this case that the two <strong>in</strong>dividuals will<strong>in</strong>gly spend time together as<br />
they share experiences and learn from each other.<br />
Sheehy (2006) calls this partnership that develops over time the<br />
mentor connection and refers to it as a successful l<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>g. F<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>gs that<br />
support positive outcomes from the preceptor, coach, and role model<br />
relationships also support success. There is general consensus that<br />
<strong>in</strong>dividuals who have or have had good mentor<strong>in</strong>g relationships tend<br />
to be well balanced with personal and work issues as well as successful<br />
<strong>in</strong> their professional careers. More research identify<strong>in</strong>g best practices<br />
<strong>in</strong> mentor<strong>in</strong>g will serve to accentuate the need for a mentor<strong>in</strong>g<br />
culture with<strong>in</strong> and between discipl<strong>in</strong>es.<br />
