Mentor Leadership Training Course

You chose:

answer b "Brenda, you should definitely go to New York. It’s an incredible city. You can go to the theater and go to the museums. Hang out in Central Park. You’ll love it."



 

This is NOT the correct answer.

Here the mentor does not remember to use the LAF, don’t CRY strategy.

In this example, the mentor does not use positive communication skills. The mentor:

  • does not ask questions to find out more about what Brenda is wanting to do
  • reacts quickly and suggests one plan without considering other ideas
  • does not allow Brenda to try to set goals and make plans herself
