The Mentorship Advantage
December 27th
People always ask me where they should go to work, and I always tell them to go to work for whom they admire the most.
Working for someone you respect can be an extraordinary form of mentorship. By observing and interacting with a leader whose qualities you admire, you get to absorb their wisdom, emulate their strengths, and learn from their challenges. It's an education in leadership that unfolds right before your eyes.
Admiration often stems from shared values. When you respect your superior, it's typically because their principles align with yours and you appreciate the way they operate. This alignment of values can lead to a deeper sense of purpose and fulfillment in your work.
In the face of countless career choices, it's wise to prioritize learning and personal growth over more transient perks. Seek environments that inspire you to become a better version of yourself. What you gain in knowledge and character from such experiences is often far more valuable than any paycheck.
