Effective mentoring requires a set of core skills that are not exclusive to mentors but are equally relevant for mentees. The present study aimed to develop and validate a self-made Mentoring Skills Tool applicable to both mentors and mentees. The tool was developed with Reference to Dr. Philip Jones\u2019 publication on mentoring skills, from which only the core skills common to both roles were identified and adapted. The final tool consists of 37 statements covering four core mentoring skill dimensions: Listening Skills, Building Trust, Encouraging, and Identifying Goals and Current Reality. Content validity was established through expert judgment by eight subject experts, yielding a validity coefficient of 0.729. Reliability analysis conducted using Jamovi software resulted in a Cronbach\u2019s Alpha value of 0.809, indicating good internal consistency. The findings suggest that the tool is reliable and valid for administration on a large population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong>  Mentoring skills, Tool development, Reliability, Validity, Jamovi, Mentors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-ast-global-color-1-color has-text-color\"><strong>Page No: 74-79<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-ast-global-color-6-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/bijmrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/74-79.pdf\">download journal<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: Mrs. Manisha Sonavane DOI Link: https:\/\/doi.org\/10.70798\/Bijmrd\/04011014 Abstract: Mentoring is a reciprocal developmental process that plays a vital role in educational, professional, and personal growth.
