In this episode of Tech Pathways, we’re delving into the sensitive yet empowering process of ending a mentorship. Inspired by National Mentoring Day, we’ll discuss why and when mentorships naturally come to a close, and how to navigate this transition with mutual respect and optimism. For mentees, a well-handled conclusion can lead to newfound confidence and independence, while mentors have the chance to guide a mentee toward new paths, including the potential benefits of coaching.

Listen in as we explore key indicators that it’s time to move on, ways to frame the mentorship's conclusion positively, and actionable steps mentors can offer for continued growth, like networking opportunities and professional groups. We’ll also talk about how a mentorship can sometimes evolve into a coaching relationship, offering mentees targeted support as they aim higher in their careers. By approaching the end of a mentorship with care, mentors can ensure their guidance leaves a lasting, positive impact.
