Our Mentors

In Greek Methodology, Mentor was the son of Heracles and a friend of Odysseus (the famous warrior of the Trojan War and the central character of Homer's epic odyssey.) Athena, the goddess of wisdom, courage, and inspiration once took the form of Mentor and encouraged and came up with practical plans of dealing with personal dilemmas. Hence, the term 'mentor' in today's world is a person who imparts wisdom and shares knowledge.
