Check out this great article on one of the most important things needed for an entrepreneur to succeed...a mentor!
A mentor will be someone to support, encourage, and give advice to the entrepreneur. A good mentor will be someone who has experience that they can share from starting their own business or working with entrepreneurs. As a part of the Women's Entrepreneurship Project that I coordinated in Guyana, we matched every entrepreneur with a mentor which was critical for the success of the project. Everyone should have a good mentor that they can go to for advice. All of the women I worked with felt that it was necessary to have a mentor and many of them needed a strong, confident, and successful mentor with experience and business education to give them encouragement and advice to take their business one step further.
Working with entrepreneurs? Be sure to incorporate a mentorship program!
