It is common in the sports world to see top tier athletes seek out coaches that help improve and elevate their performance. In the business world, it’s a bit of a mixed bag. In many circles, seeking out coaching and feedback is perceived as a sign of weakness. You need to project that you know everything. In other circles, there is talk of actively seeking out a mentor for help.
What does it mean to have a mentor in your career? How important is it and value does that provide? How do you go about seeking and finding a mentor? What resources are available?
On this week’s episode of the 33 Tangents podcast, Jim and Jason welcome Evan LaPointe back for a discussion around being mentored. Evan is the Founder and CEO of CORE Consulting. He is also the creator of Satellite which was acquired by Adobe in 2013 and became DTM.
