Jane Crowe, National Programme Manager, Data Science Campus in the Office for National Statistics (ONS) explores how becoming a mentor can help to boost your own learning, as well as that of your 바카라 사이트榤entee바카라 사이트�:
바카라 사이트淲hile we teach, we learn바카라 사이트� is a quote attributed to the Roman philosopher Seneca and this age-old truth is echoed by colleagues who mentor on government data science mentoring programmes.
Data science mentors provide advice and guidance to help colleagues develop technical skills while working on an analytical project. From a knotty technical question or new insight from their mentees바카라 사이트� data to a different approach to project management or simply a new way of using GitHub, mentors report that they gain new skills and knowledge through mentoring others. It could also provide opportunities your current role may not, such as demonstrating and developing skills like coaching, communication and leadership. Mike Hudgell of the UK Hydrographic Office says 바카라 사이트淪imple questions can also sometimes test the depth of your own knowledge and understanding, there is always something new to learn!바카라 사이트�
Data science mentors also value the sense of reward that comes with helping someone grow, develop and achieve their goals. And let바카라 사이트檚 not forget the bigger picture, that they바카라 사이트檝e contributed to increasing the skills available to ensure government and the public sector can make better decisions and deliver better services for citizens.
And why else do people choose to mentor? Well, simply because they enjoy it! They make new friends, become part of a community of esteemed experts, gain fresh perspectives and grow their professional network. Mentor Sonia Williams of the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs said: 바카라 사이트淚 enjoy getting to know someone from another organisation and learning more about their work. The variety it adds to my job - you can end up mentoring a project completely different to your day job.바카라 사이트�
