Having someone to help and guide us can be hugely valuable. This award can be for a formally appointed mentor, or someone who has been a mentor to you more informally. The qualities in nominees for this category might include providing excellent support and advice, being able to listen actively and offer guidance constructively and effectively, providing challenges and encouraging you to think and act differently. Above all, they will have helped you to deliver and achieve your goals.
Give us some examples of how your mentor helped you, and what you achieved as a result of being mentored.
