Have you thought about some kind of incentive to the Refuge Staff for mentoring. They are already short-handed and I am afraid this will just seem like one more item to add to the t-do list. I am not sure what is allowed, but some kind of bonus or gift for participation. Also, will they be able to charge their time to the other Refuge? This…[Read more]

Thank you very much Ann for your review and comments. For clarification purposes, are you referring to refuge staff who apply to be formal mentors for the national mentoring program?
-
Yes. I am talking about refuge staff members and not friends.
-
For the second comment: I am referring to the mentoring Refuge Staff not the mentored. For instance, if our Refuge Staff helped another refuge develop a friends group, we would be taking time away from what they can accomplish at our refuge. While it is for the good of the entire system to establish a friends program everywhere, each unit has…[Read more]

Ah, I see where you are going with this Ann. We may need to be more clear in the Action Plan. We aren’t suggesting that refuge staff from one refuge mentor Friends from another refuge. While that can certainly happen organically, that would not be part of the formal mentoring program.
The mentors (both individual refuge staff and Friends)…[Read more]

I’m confused by this comment. If the refuge staff has requested a mentoring visit, why would they need extra incentives to participate? If a station has identified a need for mentoring, the Project Leader needs to communicate the importance to her/his staff.
