Do you have the right mentor for your career and business? 

A great mentor can accelerate your success and save you a lot of frustration; yet, most leaders I talk to aren’t really satisfied with the mentors they have in their life. Regardless if you’ve outgrown the mentors you have or you don’t have one at all, you can benefit from my interview with Chairperson of three companies and host of the Thirty Minute Mentors Podcast, Adam Mendler.

Adam shares a powerful strategy to find the right mentor and also how you can be a great mentor to others.

Adam Mendler is the CEO of The Veloz Group, where he co-founded and oversees ventures across a wide variety of industries: Beverly Hills Chairs, the leading seller of refurbished Herman Miller Aeron chairs in the country; Custom Tobacco, a one-of-a-kind e-commerce platform where customers can create fully customized, private-label cigars in real-time; and Veloz Solutions, a technology consulting and software development practice. 

Adam is also a nationally acclaimed thought leader, writer and speaker on topics including leadership, entrepreneurship and management. Adam is the creator and host of the podcast Thirty Minute Mentors, where each week he goes one on one with one of the most successful people in the country on how they got to the top and how listeners can too.
