Recognize that mentorship transfers sensemaking
Recognize that mentorship transfers sensemaking capacity—ways of interpreting experience and relating to uncertainty—more than it transfers specific knowledge or techniques.
Why This Is a Principle
Schemas organize knowledge (Schemas as Knowledge Organization Structures), tacit knowledge exists (Tacit Knowledge Exceeds Linguistic Expression), and understanding gaps become visible through articulation (Illusion of Explanatory Depth). Together these identify what mentorship truly transmits.
