126 mentoring to fast track your career

When it comes to career management, one of the best things you can do for yourself is to identify a mentor who demonstrates the key experience, aptitude, and success that you aspire to. Someone who has travelled the journey, experienced the challenges and has overcome the difficulties. One who knows what it takes to be successful.

You don’t need to limit yourself to one mentor, you may identify certain qualities and experiences that different potential mentors possess – one may be a great communicator and negotiator, another may be a subject matter expert in your area of interest, another may be a successful entrepreneurial and another may demonstrate highly effective leadership skills. Each mentor will have something to offer you.

I discuss this on Radio 2UE Talking Lifestyle – Second Career with Matthew Tukaki and David Prior. Listen to two of the interviews where we discuss the difference between mentoring and coaching and how both can help to fast track your CAREER.
