Qualities and Behaviors That Make Someone a Great Mentor
From: Studer ,Q. (2020). The busy leader's handbook: how to lead people and places that thrive. Hoboken, NJ: Wiley and Sons.

*     "Great mentors have done it and/or are doing it.
*     Great mentors are willing to share their knowledge, expertise, and skills.
*     They just don't give answers. Instead, they help the mentee arrive at the answers.
*     They focus on character at least as much as skill.
*     Great mentors aren't afraid to get personal. They know there is no sharp divide between work life and personal life.
*     Great mentors walk the walk.
*     They are honest about their shortcomings.
*     Great mentors know they are not finished products.
*     Great mentors care.
*     They are positive by nature.
*     They help the mentee hold up the mirror.
*     Great mentors teach from experience.
*     They demand accountability.
*     They also help the mentee find other mentors.
*     Great mentors tell the hard truths (but they do it with caring) (p.269-272)."
