The concept of mentoring dates back to ancient Greece, where the character Mentor from Homer's Odyssey served as a wise and trusted advisor to Odysseus' son, Telemachus. The term 'mentor' has since become synonymous with a trusted counselor or guide. In modern times, mentoring has evolved into a structured professional development practice aimed at fostering learning and growth.
