What we suffer from to-day is humility in the wrong place. Modesty has moved from the organ of ambition. Modesty has settled upon the organ of conviction; where it was never meant to be. A man was meant to be doubtful about himself, but undoubting about the truth; this has been exactly reversed. Nowadays the part of a man that a man does assert is exactly the part he ought not to assert—himself. The part he doubts is exactly the part he ought not to doubt—the Divine Reason. Huxley preached a humility content to learn from Nature. But the new sceptic is so humble that he doubts if he can even learn. Thus we should be wrong if we had said hastily that there is no humility typical of our time. The truth is that there is a real humility typical of our time; but it so happens that it is (...)

Want to turn a role model into a mentor? Just be cool

Want to turn a role model into a mentor? Just be cool.This is the second part of my series on #mentorship, which I started a few months ago here with the post, “Want a mentor? Stop asking for one.”A few months ago, I wrote about how the kiss of death when it comes to seeking out adult mentorship in your life is often the very act of asking for a mentor. Furthermore, I pointed out (and still really believe) that this misconception around mentorship is all a bit over-played. At the end of the day, most of us don’t need someone to meet with us every couple of weeks and guide our every action in our #careers. Chances are, you’re just looking for some good advice now — and maybe again in a few months.There are a lot of tactics I shared about how you can go about securing an initial coffee meeting or (...)

The Most Powerful Gift, According To Science? An Authentic “Thank You” -Here’s WhyImage credit: rawpixel, via pixabayResearcher Robert Cialdini has studied the elements that comprise a powerful gift. From a scientific standpoint, the “power” of a gift is measured by the extent it triggers the reciprocity principle of persuasion. The greater the desire of the recipient to “repay” the gift, the greater its power. However, #gifts have another source of power, the impact they have on the giver.If your goal is to give a memorable business gift to your boss, customers, employees and other valued stakeholders, be prepared to put in some effort. Mr. Cialdini has concluded that the most effective gifts are: significant, unexpected, personalized and unconditional.Much ObligedModern and ancient societies (...)

Help! My mentee isn’t listening to me!

Quick article while I wait for Game 2 of Warriors Cavs. Last week I had a fantastic conversation with a top employee on my team. He’s an up and coming Senior Engineer who recently started mentoring newer recruits. He asked me:“As a mentor, should I be a sounding board or should I take on a more active role and give advice? I’m uncomfortable telling people what to do.”This is a great question because there are many approaches to mentoring and #leadership styles. Sometimes it makes sense to apply what is referred to as a “coaching” style, where you ask leading questions in an effort to try and get the mentee to figure out answers on their own.More typically, mentees have some expectation that they will learn from a mentor’s past experiences and get tangible advice. If they wanted a sounding board (...)

The Line Between #mentorship And Partnership

One of the first pieces of advice most people will give you when you set out to become an entrepreneur is to “get yourself a few good mentors”. While I wholeheartedly agree with this advice and it can create a ton of good, very few people talk about the bad that can come from it if the proper lines are not drawn. While it has been several months since my experience which I will share some lessons from, I admit that I still harbor some negative emotions as I write about it. I will try my best to remain objective and unbiased, as one of the greatest lessons this particular mentor taught me is that “there are two sides to every story”.I’ll skip to the end of the story since the journey itself (while probably somewhat entertaining) is less important than the lessons that can be taken from it. (...)
