In the past, mentoring has been a one-to-one process, most often informal and unstructured. Contemporary mentoring takes many forms and though informal mentoring often occurs naturally and spontaneously, more structured approaches are emerging. Ways of mentoring include:
* Informal – conversations that happen by chance or by arrangement
* Formal – relationships in a structured program
* Peer mentoring - two colleagues mentor each other
* Reverse-mentoring - executives mentored by non-executives
* Cascading mentoring – each level of an organization mentor those below
* Group mentoring - one mentor meets with several mentorees
* Mentoring round-tables - peers interact in a group mentoring conversation
* Mentoring circles - facilitated group, each person mentors one person and is mentored by another
* Mastermind mentoring and business coaching - experts coach a novices
