CONSIDERATIONS WHEN CHOOSING A CAREER MENTOR.

In Homer's Odyssey, the young Telemachus had an adviser called Mentor.

Before you choose your mentor reflect on the following.

If your child has a friend who is glued to their tablet whilst demanding junk food all day long, guess what your child will be asking for and doing next week.

We become like the people with whom we associate, so be very careful when you choose a mentor.

If they are going to guide, advise, coach or counsel you, their values need to be in line with your own and they need to be able to adapt their communication style to yours, otherwise they won't be able to give you impartial and objective career advice.

I've been helping people personally for quite a few years, but if you are looking for a career mentor to inspire you let me give you a few other names as well to choose from.

You won't be disappointed if you contact any of the following: Peter RobsonDavid RodenSimon Scantlebury or Peter Wilford.
