The Invisible Mentor

Are you looking for a mentor? How about you mentor someone instead? You may be thinking that you are not mentor material, but you will do just fine. We all know things that others don’t.  To get the mentoring process started, think about the following questions.

1. What kind of people would you like to mentor?
2. What advice would you give to someone just starting out in the field?
3. What’s a typical day like for you?
4. What are some challenges that you face daily, and how do you resolve them?
5. What lessons did you learn from resolving the challenges?
6. What are five life lessons that you have learned so far that you can pass on to others?
7. What burning issues or ideas drive your life?
8. What legacy would you like to leave behind?
9. In what ways could you enhance the lives of future generation?
10. What value could you add to a mentoring relationship?

This is a great start for you to get going on a mentoring relationship, and keep in mind the traits of great mentors in yesterday’s post Great Ideas from the Mentor’s Spirit.
