[quote=Anonymous]Maybe meet with the person once or twice, then let it fizzle. What is their motivation for offering to mentor you? Do you work for the same company - maybe they have been directed by someone higher up to work with you on a specific skill set. My supervisor has asked me to mentor people on a specific task that I excel at. Similarly, it has been suggested that I go speak to Person Y about mentoring because they do something well that I need to improve. It doesn't have to be a forever-relationship. If they're just offering general mentoring with no specific objective in mind, maybe they are trying to fulfill some sort of development action? If it's someone who's in your field but not at your company, I think it would be easier to just say, "Thanks, I'll seek you out if I have questions," or something like that.[/quote]
