Are you coachable, teachable, open to new ways of thinking or looking at your world? The basis of mentoring begins with your ability to be mentored. The need to grow and develop should foster an attitude in which you don’t know all the answers and thus need to find new ones, or perhaps at least new approaches that can supplant or provide alternatives to old ones. Where you get your mentoring can be just as varied - coaches, newsletters, books, seminars, even these podcasts can provide teachable moments if you are open!
