So you hire a coach, a mentor, a teacher, how can you trust what they're teaching you? 
Tali and Cody discuss some key elements and strategies for getting the most out of your mentor relationships. 

00:43 Intro

01:53 Nuno Bettencourt

09:36 How to judge your mentors, teachers, leaders, and coaches. Having a guide is good. Blind obedience is not!

11:28 How can you know something? Francis Bacon and the scientific method: According to Bacon, learning and knowledge all derive from the basis of inductive reasoning.

15:32 What are your values and incentives? What are your mentor's values and incentives? Screen your mentors - that discernment requires self-knowledge.

22:59 Even though we live in an "information age", it still holds true that you often get what you pay for!

26:46 The Final Attempt: Mentors can be more effective if they acknowledge where their students are at. Collaboration need not be off the table. And a great mentor will instill agency in their students.

33:10 Two things to gain trust in a mentor: 1) Are they collaborative and customizing info? Or is it top-down and generic? 2) Can they provide a justification for why they're teaching what they're teaching?

36:55 It's reassuring when you find a mentor who can admit when they don't know something. It becomes easier to trust what they say they do know. In addition, we can more readily trust a mentor who expects us to outgrow them rather than having a life-long or open-ended reliance on them. 

53:19 You are the only person responsible for your own decisions. So, speak up when you need to and take ownership of all of your own actions!

54:39 Separate ideas from personalities. Create a habit of considering ideas on their own merit, regardless of the source.
