What to Expect in Your First Mentoring Session

Nervous about your first mentoring session? Don't be. The first meeting is about getting to know each other and setting direction. Here's exactly what to expect and how to make it count.

Digby R. Kerr
By Digby R. Kerr — Wharton MBA, author of 12 books, founder of Kerr University™. 35+ years leading global business.

Getting to know each other

The first session is largely about context — your background, your goals, your challenges. A good mentor asks a lot of questions to understand where you are before offering guidance. Come ready to share openly.

Setting direction

Together you'll shape what you want from the relationship: the goals, the focus areas, the rhythm. Leaving the first session with a clear direction sets everything that follows up for success.

How to prepare

Bring your goals, your biggest current challenge, and your questions. The more honest and specific you are, the more useful the session. At Kerr University the first 30-minute session is free — a no-pressure way to see if it's a fit.
