Personal Leadership Development #4

Practical steps to take to have mentors who are great leaders

1) Know clearly where you want to go and what your personal mission and vision is

2) Think who are your role models and who could mentor you to accomplish your personal vision

3) Network and get connected to the people who could be your mentors

4) Think of ways you can help them accomplish their goals

5) Build a relationship and seek counsel when you need help

6) Do not call your mentors too often for every small issue but call only when there is a real need and respect their time

Sometimes some of your prospective mentors will not agree to be your mentor if you ask them. But the key is to build a relationshiop and be able to approach them for advise. We should have some mentors who have agreed to be our mentors and some whom we can approach just based on a relationship. These are valuable relationships and their advise and direction can be key to catapult you to accomplish your vision.
