Mentoring is motivated by love.
Mentoring is an indispensable requirement for an artist’s growth. Not only are skills and experience shared, but there is value in the essential re-examination of one’s own work and techniques.
I think the greatest thing we give each other is encouragement…knowing that I’m talking to someone in this mentoring relationship who’s interested in the big idea here is very, very important to me. I think if it were just about helping me get to the next step, it would be a heck of a lot less interesting.
If you are ‘too busy’ most of the time, or locked behind closed doors, no mentoring relationship can work.
Listening sounds like a ridiculous characteristic for mentoring, but genuinely being invested and interested in people, meeting them for cups of coffee and spending time with people, and using the network I’ve been very lucky to build up to help others are all things I do to help others.
In a battery, I strive to maximize electrical potential. When mentoring, I strive to maximize human potential.
Mentoring is the cultivation of young adults, the tender caring for and nurturing of them so that they will grow, flourish, and be fruitful.
Don’t ever underestimate the power of mentoring someone, or helping some young actor, doing a favor for them, or introducing – everyone needs somebody to help them along when they’re first starting out.
With a growth mindset, kids don’t necessarily think that there’s no such thing as talent or that everyone is the same, but they believe everyone can develop their abilities through hard work, strategies, and lots of help and mentoring from others.
Shareholder value is the result of you doing a great job, watching your share price go up, your shareholders win, and dividends increasing. What happens when you have increasing shareholder value? You’re delivering better employees to their communities and they can give back. Communities are winning because employees are involved in mentoring and all these other things. Customers are winning because you’re providing them new products.
Mentoring isn’t just about what you can give to a protege. It’s about how you can help them accomplish what they want to accomplish. And once you know what the goal is, the path to getting there is just as important.
Unless the mentee is real, the mentor ends up mentoring an imposter and it’s a waste of time for both.
Mentoring is a two-way street. You get out what you put in.
Mentoring is a mutuality that requires more than meeting the right teacher: the teacher must meet the right student.
A student was given a mentoring opportunity, in the hope that when you had somebody to lean on you, you would begin to stand a little steadier yourself, and get manliness and thoughtfulness.
I have always been a huge believer in the inestimable value good mentoring can contribute to any nascent business.
The move from scarcity thinking to abundance thinking, from zero-sum competition to one-hundred-sum collaboration, is not just a “nice” or “moral” idea. In the twenty-first century, it’s plain good sense. Scarcity says, “I’m going to keep all my ideas to myself and sell more than anyone else.” Abundance says, “By mentoring, coaching, and sharing all our best ideas, we’re going to create a powerful tide that raises all our ships-and we’ll all sell more as a result”.
What the great mentor is always looking for is a person who is willing to tap his genius, to put it through the refiner’s fire, to do the hard work to develop it. Indeed, mentoring is the medieval art of alchemy-turning plain old human steel into hearts and minds of gold.
Sometimes someone coming in doesn’t have the natural passion for it, but they find it through the coaching or mentoring I give them. I’m sort of opening curtains or blinds and all of a sudden they see it, they get it.
In her book ‘Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead,’ Sheryl Sandberg talks about the mentor/mentee relationship – and how it needs to be organic. She goes on to explain how important it is for men and women to step into mentoring roles. I would argue that not only is it important – but it’s important far earlier than we think.
