Who can you turn to for advice?

 

As a leader, your employees expect you to have the answers. But often you'll be confronted by a situation where the answer isn't there. You need someone with whom you can talk it through, gain a different perspective, get advice and perhaps even hold you to account for taking action.

 

That's where a good mentor is invaluable.

 

Whether you just need someone to offload frustrations on to, or a springboard for ideas, your mentor provides you with unemotional guidance by understanding your situation and bringing their experience to how you view the situation.

 

Your mentor isn't there to run the business for you, but they are there to help you make better business decisions.
