🤷‍♀️ Mentorship: Do we really need one to succeed?

Question

I believe I've accelerated several steps in my career, thanks to my mentors.

Interestingly, most of them are on LinkedIn and often younger than I expected 🤔.

What do you think?

Accepted Answer

Mentorship is a great way to accelerate your career, but it's not essential. The most important thing is to find a mentor who's a good fit for you.

@bukhari817 @jovana_djekovic First thank you Jovana for your active participation :) I think mentor could be any kind of specialist who's not have to be more experienced than you in all cases. Co-mentoring is the best way I think 😍😇

I definitely don’t see anything harmful in mentorship. We also have a mentor at our startup who gives a lot of good advice and we are very pleased with him. So if you have an appropriate mentor just use his knowledge and network.

Answer

Yes, we definitely do. Having a mentor helped us a lot at the very beginning. They saved us from making early mistakes and guided us on how to effectively validate our idea.

Answer

@bukhari817 Totally agree, mentor should be the right match
