CheeseheadNRWlion asked a great question. I prefer to leave the theoretical background to the trainers. Feedback will tell us what's effective.00:47
CheeseheadFor example, I signed up to facilitate 'better mentoring.' I plan to make it a workshop - bring stories and questions to the table. Much of the theoretcial background is adapted from mentoring.org; adapted because the theory is sound (used it) but the situations are dissimilar.00:54
