How and why they became your mentor?

What are you struggling with and need a mentor for?

Finding the “right” person IE finding compatible mentors that align with your personality and style

Make sure you maintain clear communication with you mentor so that neither of you get frustrated with the process

Have your mentor challenge you to work through the process of whatever your issue is, so that it’s not a hand holding process but an educational process

Make sure you are giving back to your mentor as much or more than they give to you

Thinking of becoming a mentor?

Make clear intentions of time and effort you are giving to your mentee so you don’t waste your or their time

Know what your skill set and put those skills forward so that you can help the person that needs it the most
