Answer to Question 1

Answer: FALSE

Answer to Question 2

Sara Martinez Tucker suggests one approach to mentoring is to consider learning from those who are poor, rather than good, role models. Even though there is no direct mentoring relationship, there can be considerable learning from observing other leaders inside and outside your organization who behave badly. One business writer suggests that even antimentors are reliable and consistent and therefore can be excellent sources of development.
The downsides of antimentors may be the inability of the protg to separate good behavior from bad behavior. Also, it may be seen as a waste of resources to spend time and energy learning what not to do.
