  • KL145: Leading By Mentoring

    “Leading by Mentoring” is an excellent way to cultivate future leaders. Research consistently shows a multitude of benefits related to mentoring. Nevertheless, many individuals remain unaware of its advantages, and the percentage of people actively participating in mentoring relationships remains low.

    In her new book, “The Financial Times Guide to Mentoring,” Dr. Ruth Gotian and her co-author seek to bridge this gap by providing readers with practical tools and strategies to understand, establish, and sustain effective mentoring relationships.


    Listen to my interview with Dr. Ruth Gotian as we discuss this vital aspect of leadership on Keep Leading!® Live.


    Bio

    Dr. Ruth Gotian, Chief Learning Officer and Associate Professor of Education in Anesthesiology at Weill Cornell Medicine, is a globally recognized expert in mentorship and leadership development. Hailed by Nature, Wall Street Journal, and Columbia University, she was named a top 20 mentor worldwide. Thinkers50 ranked her as the #1 emerging management thinker in 2021, and LinkedIn recognized her as a top voice in mentoring in 2023. A semi-finalist for Forbes 50 Over 50, Dr. Gotian is a prolific contributor to Harvard Business Review, Forbes, and Psychology Today, where she shares insights on 'optimizing success.' With a focus on the mindset and skill set of peak performers, including Nobel Prize winners, astronauts, Olympic and NBA champions, she's also an award-winning author of The Success Factor and The Financial Times Guide to Mentoring.
