For many years, mentoring has been
used as the influential career development tool in organizations. From a wider perspective, mentoring is
perceived as a way of people development by helping individuals to achieve something
meaningful in their lives. However, due to proliferation of entrepreneurial
initiatives, now it is not only scrutinized from an intra-organizational
perspective, but also it is considered a tool for self-employed development.
Therefore, new area for cultivation in the garden of mentoring has emerged: Entrepreneurial Mentoring. Although, its
multi-faceted development effect for new ventures is accepted, mentoring is not
highly discussed topic in entrepreneurship literature to the best of our
knowledge (St-Jean and Mathieu, 2015, St-Jean and Audet,2009). Hence, this
conceptual study mainly deals with definitional issues, roots of mentoring and
how mentoring evolves from career development towards entrepreneurial
development perspective. The concern is offering some insights about multiple roles
of mentoring, especially for new-start ventures as a supportive mechanism in
their entrepreneurial journey.
