Mentorship within the Framework of Normative Regulation and Law Enforcement

The authors examine the phenomenon of mentorship in normative and law enforcement aspects. The study identifies two key directions of normative-legal regulation, namely: the regulation of mentorship in public service and the establishment of mechanisms for stimulating and encouraging the activities of mentors. The authors conclude that detailed regulation of mentor-mentee relationships is unnecessary in areas beyond public service. The lack of uniformity in mentorship acts of federal executive bodies is not treated by the authors as problematic, as it reflects departmental specificity. Thus, it stimulates initiative and creativity, promoting the dissemination of best practices. Similarly, the diversity in types, forms, and methods of mentorship for newly appointed judges in various jurisdictions of the Russian Federation is positively evaluated. Mentorship is considered as an integral element of organizational personnel policy, a promising direction for professional development, and an effective HR technology. The authors analyzed the need for the adoption of a professional standard for «Mentor». The authors highlight that local law-making serves the goals and objectives of mentorship better than broader legal regulation. It is revealed that universities, alongside specific local acts on mentorship, have various normative documents governing mentor standards, rewards, and incentives. It is concluded that the development of mentorship is facilitated by establishing systems of material and non-material incentives for mentors. The authors also focus on the important social function of reverse mentorship that can bridge generational gaps.
