Who Makes A Great Mentor?

Man shaking hands with his mentorChoose your mentors wisely. Mentoring is not counseling. It is guidance in the form of teaching and support provided by someone you trust, usually a teacher, a parent or relative, a supervisor, coach or a counselor.

We've been fortunate to have a number of valuable mentors in our life of sports and business, people who have helped us professionally and personally in important ways. Each of our mentors were unique, but all possessed traits we believe common among effective mentors.

Fair- Make sure your chosen mentor is fair in their judgements with others and they will be with you. You want a mentor that will challenge you daily, but also be fair in their assessments and expectations of you.

Enthusiastic- You want a mentor that is excited about helping you pursue your goals. Look for a mentor that is willing to share that excitement with you and help you stay on path...continued here
