Re-assigning mentorship to another mentor

There are some cases when the mentor assigned to a rep is no longer the best candidate for the role. This can be due to many factors, including:

  • mentor has moved to another time zone making communication difficult
  • a new mentor has been approved who is a better fit
  • mentor no longer has time or motivation to be a mentor
  • the rep doesn't feel supported and/or attempts to improve the situation have failed

Assigning a new mentor

If the rep, the current mentor and the prospective mentor all agree to a reassignment then it can go forward without council approval. Make sure the change is reflected in the following ways:

  • email council to notify of the change and confirm that all parties agree to it
  • reassign the application bug in bugzilla to the new mentor
  • change the mentor listed on the reps profile at reps.mozilla.org

If a rep doesn't feel comfortable approaching the mentor or has tried and the situation hasn't improved, the rep can send an email to any of the council members to request a new mentor. The rep needs to explain the reasons for the request.
