Tip of the Quarter
What the best mentors do
. Mentorship comes in many flavors. It doesn't always work unless leaders bear in mind a few common principles. As part of research for a forthcoming book, Anthony K. Tjan has been researching how leaders can better judge and develop their talent in light of a changing, more purpose-driven, more tech-enabled work environment. He interviewed close to 100 leaders among various industries, and one characteristic stands out: They do everything they can to imprint their "goodness" onto others in ways that make others feel like fuller versions of themselves. In this article, discover four additional things that the best mentors do.
