Explain the difference between a mentor and a coach. Describe at least one situation that is best situated for each style. |
The difference between a mentor and a coach is a mentor provides their knowledge, skills, and experience to help develop a person’s growth long term. As for a coach, they provide guidance for a goal to help you reach it. So in a situation for mentoring I would find someone I can go to long term for advice, help with any troubles, or decisions I have to hear if they have experienced it or having knowledge that can help. Coaching I would you use someone short term to help me focus and pass a test or the board or condition me to help with fitness. Like for a example I was supposed to go to the board back in September but I just wasn’t feeling it, I hate studying and interviews but my peers took the initiative to take the time to get with me to study with me to accomplish this one goal. |

Airmen project the military image and make an impression on those around them in large part on how they wear their uniforms, the Air Force emphasize a need, clean and professional image, if you see the opposite sex, and in your chain of command, and they appear to be out of regs, whether it be hair, nails, facial hair, ribbons, or uniforms. How would you address the situation? |
I would Definitely make sure I know the update version of dress and appearance which is 36–2903 and to for sure 100% correct on what I am going to correct the person about. I will pull the members aside so they wouldn’t feel embarrassed or offended, and let them know what exactly is wrong, and why and explain to them how it is out of regulations and if they could correct it at their earliest convenience because I know some things can be corrected right away, but if so, I will give solution so if the members nails would ask if they could go to the store and buy the appropriate color and paint over it. Or if it’s a male who forgot to shave and is not on a shaving waiver suggest that maybe he should buy a razor and do a quick clean up in the bathroom. |

Do you think that the Air Force’s core values “excellent in all we do” , demands perfection? How would you define the core value? How do you implement these core value in your organization? |
No, I do not believe it’s a demand for Perfection, but to strive to be the best that you can be and to perfect your craft. This core value to me is a good one to live by, because with anything I touch, I do want to make sure it is a good product. I know I am human and human make mistakes but I want to try and make the effort to prevent them as much as possible. Your product is a reflection of you and I want to give out the best with little to no mistakes and that’s how I see the core value of “excellence in all we do”. To just give your best. |
