Abstract:
Individuals learn from their interactions with others, especially those with
expertise and seniority in their workplace. Mentoring is a relationship between
a senior employee and junior employee which promotes such interactions for
facilitating learning and support in the workplace. This study investigated
whether formal mentoring received is related to learning i.e., job related
learning and personal skill development among the employees of new
generation private sector banks in Kerala. The results indicated that mentoring
has a strong positive correlation with personal skill development and there is
no significant correlation with job related learning. This paper is an account of
quantitative research study based on primary data derived from select
commercial bank employees. The data derived through pretested structured
questionnaire.
