Key Topics:

  • Everyone needs a mentor. What's the greatest gift a mentor can provide to their student? What's the primary goal of mentoring? Is mentoring a one-way street or do the best avenues of communication have traffic going both ways?
  • One's greatest moments of creativity and conviction can can from their "gut." How important is getting out of your own way?
  • The handshake for many was rendered moot by the pandemic. What did it originally convey? What might stand in its place?
  • Why is dealing with the public a good experience for young people?
  • Words of advice typically reveal their wisdom over long periods of time. Why don't we heed its wisdom sooner?
  • Whatever it is we're doing now job wise or vocationally, we'll likely not do it forever! When that day arrives, we'll be confronted with "so what now?" Everybody needs a project. What will yours be?
