They give you an external perspective. Your mentor can look at a situation and help you to decide whether you are making the right choices. They’ll be the person you need to see the big picture and help you to see it and you can use a spoon of that from time to time.
They help your growth. A mentor holds your hand and walks you through the scary situations in the business and helps you to grow personally as well as professionally. They’ll be the cheerleader to push you and the Sherpa to guide your way.
They will manage you. Your time, your diary and your ability to remain organized depends on your mentor and you should think about how you can use their help. Think of them like a behind the scenes planner that you didn't know you needed.
