A project manager should mentor the team member who is asking for directions and actions on many tasks, as this indicates a lack of confidence, competence, or clarity in the team member's role and responsibilities. Mentoring is the process of providing personal support and guidance to a less experienced team member by a seasoned project manager. A mentor can help the team member develop their skills, knowledge, and abilities, as well as provide feedback, advice, and encouragement. A mentor can also help the team member understand the project objectives, scope, deliverables, processes, and standards, and how to align their work with them. By mentoring the team member on a regular basis, the project manager can help the team member improve their performance, productivity, and quality of work, as well as increase their motivation, engagement, and satisfaction.
