What Makes For A Successful Mentor-Mentee Relationship? It’s All About Asking The Right Questions!

Mentorship can truly turn the tables in your professional journey, but it's not a one-way street.

In my recent conversation with Amy Salcido, the U.S. President of Kyndryl, we delved deep into the importance of a fruitful mentor-mentee relationship.

Amy emphasized the power of being self-aware, passionate, and adaptable in these relationships. And as a mentee, you have a super important role to play!

You're not just there to receive; you're there to engage, ask, and drive the relationship forward.

So don't just wait for advice to come your way. Take control of your mentorship journey, ask impactful questions, and set yourself on the path to success!
