The Power of Mentors
Wow! I just got off the phone with another mentor (from the New Venture Mentor Program). I called him for the first time only knowing that he had experience with:
- Business Idea Refinement
- Food/Grocery/Packaged Goods
- Retailing
After getting off the phone, I now know that he started and sold a $100 million grocery chain, is a former Stern professor, and is now focusing on charity. He will be helping to refine our business plan!
So much of what I have accomplished, am accomplishing, and will accomplish is due to individuals and organizations helping me! As such, I think it goes without saying that I owe it to my mentors, to return the same service to others. More on scalable, win-win ways of doing this later!
