Why Having Multiple Mentors Can Provide A Valuable Breadth Of Perspectives

One of the first things I tell new mentees is that they should ensure they’re gaining a breadth of perspectives. It sounds obvious, but it’s incredibly important that when you’re chewing something over, trying to make a good decision or simply seeking personal growth that you have more than one person’s input. <img alt="Empty board room focusing on the chair at the top of the table (namely, you)." src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:684/1*oJHkF9Wm9IPfcfyA65M_Eg.jpeg" style="height:297px; width:684px" /> Think of yourself as a company for a moment. You’re the CEO… picture it. Now, do you unilaterally decide everything that’s going to happen to ensure the ultimate success of this business, or do you have advisors, a CFO, a Legal Council and a Director of Marketing? Who are you surrounding yourself with to ensure your best chance of success? I find it helpful to see your mentor relationships in a similar way, a breadth of people invested in working with you, for the betterment of you. <a href="https://medium.com/@rico.surridge/why-having-multiple-mentors-can-provide-a-valuable-breadth-of-perspectives-59f8de50e903">Learn More</a>
