SPELLBINDER® APPRENTICE
PRACTICE GUIDE

This is useful for mutual understanding and guidance in the Spellbinder mentoring relationship. Completing this will enable your mentor understand how to coach and guide your path toward competence as a Spellbinder. This form is designed to smooth your learning curve as well as help your mentor fit his or her coaching to your own pace and need, both for shadowing and mentoring. Research show that change is enhanced when goals are made specific, in writing and shared with another. This form allows great respect for the learner and helps the mentor to focus more specifically on what the learner is ready for and needs.
