However the majority of people I know are not great at seeking out and developing these relationships. What I have learned in the past few months is it’s easier than you think! Here are three things I have done that have helped me develop very rewarding relationships with mentors.
Finding a true mentor can take a long time, but almost everyone will offer advice and guidance if asked politely. Corporations creating cultures that encourage collaboration between young and old are absolutely necessary, but the responsibility of developing these relationships is in the hands of young workers. Reach out to someone. Take a chance. The details will work themselves out.
