I’m glad it resonated with you Rivak. At Mentorloop we are strong advocates that the mentee is responsible for driving the mentorship. Feel free to share the article with your networks. Do you have a mentor or mentee? Are you part of a formal mentorship program?

I think respect for this relationship and what is aimed at coupled to the mentee’s personal responsibility for his career are key. Also, the note on avoiding gossip – I liked this point – one does need to keep to the facts and ensure that one moves to a productive resolve with the appropriate role-player. Consideration of problems before approaching the mentor as a sound board is also important. Thanks again for a useful post.
