5 Reasons Why You Should Have a Mentor


The term mentor is something that circulates the business world, but not everyone takes advantage of having one. A mentor is someone who is continually looking for ways to push you toward being better in your career but as well as your personal life. As individuals, we all face shortcomings in our lives and can use the extra boost of a mentor to help us. A great mentor will be someone that helps you achieve your goals as well helping you advance in your career.


If you have considered getting a mentor, look for someone who will help you overcome daily adversities and help you build successful habits.


Share Information and Knowledge A great mentor will be able to share additional information and knowledge about your desired field. They will be able to share things that are not common knowledge as well as things they have learned over time while in the workforce. A mentor will also be able to walk you through items related to your job and are there to offer additional support when you have questions.


Knows Where You Should Improve Mentors will always be brutally honest with you and know exactly what areas of your career you need to improve in. They will tell you exactly what you need to work on and will never downplay your weaknesses. They are there to help you grow, and one way is through constructive criticism. This will help you improve your skills and take the next step in your career.


Help Stimulate Your Professional Growth Just like knowing where you should improve in your professional life, a great mentor also knows what you need to stimulate your professional growth. By asking specific job-related questions, a mentor can gauge where you stand in your professional life based on the answers you give. Sitting down and outlining your goals with your mentor will also help them establish ways for you to reach your professional goals.


Offer Encouragement A mentor is an extra cheerleader in your corner. When you’re feeling down about something, a great mentor will be able to lift you up and encourage you. Without a mentor, it is easy to give in or even give up. They are there to guide you through your highest highs and your lowest lows and help you to become confident and successful.


Trusted Advisers In any career setting, it can be hard to know who you can and can not trust. Having a mentor on your side gives you a trusted advisor in your corner. You can trust them with proprietary information or even intellectual property, and because they are objective, they will happily share their feelings with you.
