Evidence of Excellence: To enable us to decide which nominees warrant further study, we will be asking each mentor to send us a one-page articulation of her/his mentoring philosophy, and we will be asking nominators and mentors to provide evidence that he or she is an extraordinarily effective mentor.  We are open to considering any evidence you submit; we offer the following list, therefore, as a set of suggested possibilities and not as an exhaustive list, 

• workplace evaluations,
• success of nominees’ mentees in their careers and/or workplaces,
•  specific examples of mentee success,
• mentee or other colleague testimonials,
• methods of providing mentoring, including feedback and client or professional development opportunities,
• any survey results, if applicable,
• any awards the nominee has received relevant to mentoring,
• anything else you and the nominee believe supports the nomination.
