Workplace mentoring is a “learning partnership between employees for purposes of sharing technical information, institutional knowledge and insight with respect to a particular occupation, profession, organization or endeavor”.[1] If this process is done correctly, the organization may reduce turnover and increase productivity.[2] It can be done in both ways, namely [1] Formal mentoring and [2] Informal mentoring. Informal mentoring, the term itself extrapolates the meaning of being occurred informally, for instance a new employee is taken cared by a ‘seasoned’ employee voluntarily (i.e. providing career guidance). On the other hand, formal mentoring are being done formally as in the predecessors (staffs who are about to leave the organization soon) are required to transfer their knowledge to the selected employees to minimize the loss of Knowledge Management that is resided along with the predecessors. The following sections will elucidate the relationship between Workplace mentoring and Knowledge Management.
