Vodcast Mentor Minds #1 – “Being a director is just incredibly lonely”

In this very first episode, we meet Karen and her mentor Stephanie.

Karen is the managing director of a non-profit organisation with 350 employees. Her challenges were twofold: having difficult conversations (a very recognisable challenge for many leaders), and asserting herself as a newcomer within the executive team and in relation to the board of directors.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why Karen chose Stephanie as her mentor
• How they approached the mentoring journey, including concrete tips on how to handle difficult conversations, useful for many leaders
• How mentoring helped Karen grow as a leader, a transformation also recognised by those around her
• Why vulnerability is so important in a mentoring relationship
• Why Stephanie is able to make an impact as a mentor
