Mentorship takes time. To do it really well you have to implement ways of doing it and to formalize it. That takes time. The forces wrote a beautiful book on mentoring—a thick policy book—and they never implemented it. It's ad hoc, a little bit everywhere, and it's left up to the units to do any mentoring they can. Ask any military person, and probably 80% of them will tell you they've never had a mentor or mentored others in a formal way. Why? Corporations do this all the time, and it works.
