As I moved up in my corporate career, I sought out mentors. It is amazing what I learned that helped me grow, improve and maneuver sticky situations. As a business owner I enjoy mentoring young business men and women and seeing them grow in their career with me, above and beyond what I can offer them.
I had a call today where another business owner told me she spoke with a woman who worked for me. My former employee and she said I had helped her build her confidence enough to apply and interview for a job she had really wanted. Guess what, she got the job.
Being a mentee and being mentored is all well and good, but what do you do when you are at the top of the business? You can't look to someone up-the-ladder for guidance. This is when your enlist a coach.
