Project: Mentoring-a case study

In these days of corporate downsizing and re-engineering, development work is still being preformed. These development efforts very often do not have the advice and console of experienced project leaders. Project Mentoring is a technique to reinstate the advice and console given by more experienced peers who themselves were not directly related to a project. This guidance very often allows the development team to avoid pitfalls that more experienced developers have run into on other projects. In the software business this translates into significantly reduced project life cycle costs
