Abstract
As a generation nears retirement age, a new generation of leaders prepares to fill the previous generation's place in organizations across the globe. Organizations, both for-profit and not, face the challenge of raising up leaders that possess both the skills and loyalty needed to move forward while maintaining the organization's core values. Contemporaneously, leaders in the twilights of their careers face new questions regarding their lives and legacies. This article begins by providing a brief history of organizational mentoring from both a formal and an informal standpoint. It will then move to thoughts on servant-leadership, creating the foundation for the core of the text, in which a servant-leadership-based mentoring model is proposed. The paper concludes with an acknowledgment of the need for further research into the intersection of servant-leadership and mentoring, including real world testing of a servant-mentorship model.
