It turns out that we don't know the world around us as well as we'd like to believe. Modern psychological research continues to unveil the workings, capacities, and limits of our cognition. The findings bear important ramifications and consequences that we can benefit from. In today's episode, we examine the nature of our memory and perception and what that means in our attitude toward ourselves and others.

If you ask anybody who has achieved a high level of success what was behind them, there is a common #1 answer. They had a great mentor. We all know the importance of mentors. But how common are great ones? How many great mentors, and by that I mean people who consistently produce other great mentors, are in your organization? Organizations that have numerous such contributors do well indeed. Nearly all thriving organizations have an ample supply of such people. Today, we'll look at what makes a great mentor and what you can do to produce them.
