    How do you find a mentor? Finding a mentor is a lot like developing a friendship. Before beginning the search, you need to know what type of relationship you are seeking and the type of person who would be a good fit as your mentor. That is why it is important to participate in different professional and community organizations, as it greatly increases your chance of meeting the perfect mentor. But you also need to know that you might have to make the first move in initiating a partnership. Once you have a mentor, how do you become a better mentee? To begin, you should clarify the expectations of the relationship, listen to your mentor and take their advice, and most importantly, express appreciation by honoring their value and the time they give you. Join Larry Sternberg and Kim Turnage for “Managing to Make a Difference” as they explore the important world of mentorships and answer these key questions.

    Hire Your Own Replacement
    2018/02/15
    Investing time and energy in your own development will most certainly help accelerate your personal career growth. And as you grow and move up within your organization, there will be new people who take your place. It is much easier to move on and up within your career if you have someone on your team who can make a smooth transition into your previous role. That is why it is so important to select people to your team who have the potential to be in your current role someday. There is nothing wrong with selecting someone who does not necessarily have the desire or potential to one day be promoted, but it is important that you hire and invest in a few individuals who truly have potential for management.

  • Spending More Time on Your 20 Percent

    Spending More Time on Your 20 Percent
    2018/01/04
    In this week’s episode of Managing to Make a Difference, Larry Sternberg and Dr. Kim Turnage discuss why you should spend more time on your 20%. This idea comes from the 80/20 rule, which essentially states that 20% of your efforts account for 80% of your results. Time management is not necessarily about doing several things at once, but rather spending your time on the things that make the biggest impact. As discussed before, playing to one’s strengths will provide you the biggest return on your investment. Therefore, if you spend 20% of your effort doing things you are good at and enjoy, you will have the biggest potential for growth. This can be applied not only to yourself, but to your team members. Make sure to tune in to learn more!
