Accelerate your professional growth: Find a mentor
Do you find yourself stuck in your professional growth after a certain milestone, unable to strive ahead? Chances are your roadblock is the absence of a mentor. The right mentor can guide and support you through all challenges accelerating your professional growth. But the question is where to find the right mentor?
Industry Networking Events
More often than not you would be attending some conference or an event with relevant stakeholders, at least once a month. Instead of seeing such events as passes to free lunch, see them as opportunities to network with the right people and seek mentors. Connect with them later and propose a mentoring relationship
Online Platforms
The blessing of the internet allows everyone to connect online and recent years have seen a growth in professional groups on social media platforms. Become a member and interact in these groups. Engage with people who inspire you and seek mentors in them.
Informal Platforms
Finding a mentor is a blessing that can happen at any place. Keep your eyes and ears open. Be it at a volunteering opportunity or at your next fitness class, you never know when you come across the right mentor for you
Just remember, the right mentor is your gateway to growth and success. Don't be hesitant to ask a question as long as you’re polite and asking something specific the onus is on the other person to react or respond. Happy Searching!
