Summary
How did you get to where you are now in your business?
I'm sure you could list a lot of factors. But every successful business leader will always point to specific people in their lives who mentored them along the way.
Books and classes are powerful, but nothing can replace actual people stepping into your life to guide you.
In this episode of the Building a StoryBrand podcast, Ken Blanchard and Claire Diaz-Ortiz join Donald Miller to talk about mentorship. They share a process for mentoring that will help you begin a strong mentoring relationship, whether you need a mentor or want to become one.
The six elements they outline in their process (forming the acronym MENTOR) will show you how to begin a mentoring relationship that could make all the difference in another person's life -- and in your own.
