leaders need Mentors who Guide and Support

Leadership development blog








Our level of leadership success is partly measured by our capacity to positively influence the direction and the outcomes of our respective groups. Each of us has multiple opportunities to formally and informally accept a leadership role -- on the job, in our communities, in our extended families, and in our homes. Even parenting is a form of leadership.
 
It certainly helps when we are prepared to take on the responsibilities that come with leading. When we are new to leadership, we’ll likely have greater success with those responsibilities when we have the support of a great mentor. In the absence of the guidance of a mentor, we may exert an unnecessary show of coercion or we may be overly diplomatic and not “rock the boat”.
 
To help us through the growing pains that come with the leadership role, my opinion is that every leader needs at least one mentor. Association for Talent Development (ATD) research (2019) found that 75% of successful CEOs had strong mentors. More than just guide, a mentor will challenge you, support you, and teach.
 
A strong mentor will help shape your leadership Brand. Of course, your Brand is what you’re known for, your reputation. And your Brand determines your legacy – what you will forever represent. Make your mentor an important tool in your toolkit.
