Be the Mentor Who Mattered
We’re in the middle of the perfect storm, where multiple “non-weather “events are creating the urgency and need for mentorship.
With the introduction of planes, trains and automobiles, community bonds are fraying. Mentorships that often happened naturally in office break rooms, family gatherings or church, have started to fade.
In our desire to be more connected, technology has made us more disconnected. There is a rise in mental health issues and anxiety because of the comparison game and the increased self-absorption brought about by social media. We need guides to help us navigate through the
unintended consequences of technology.
And then there is the relentless pace of change. It's easy to feel like you live in "Whack-A-Mole-Ville." Just when you master one set of skills another one pops up. People simply can’t go it alone.
That’s why we wrote this book.
Be The Mentor Who Mattered.
You don’t need a fancy title or decades of wisdom. You do need the courage to say yes, I’m here to help.
This isn’t a how to book---it’s a why-to book. We share our philosophy around mentorship and more than forty real stories of mentorship that remind you that mentorship can happen over the long term, and in a moment or one conversation.
We’re starting a Mentor Movement. Won’t you join us?

“This book offers a path to improve our ability to listen, learn and offer freely”
“Having worked with Colleen for many years, I can attest to her drive, commitment, expertise, and authenticity in the world of sales and sales management. So, it's really no surprise that when Colleen turned her attention to her heart's work - mentorship- that she would knock it out of the park again. Centered in her work is the power of one-to-one relationships, regardless of their context (boss, coach, friend, etc). The message from Colleen and co-author LeAnn Thieman is simple: Share what you have to share, ask for what you need. It's the doing that is hard. This book offers a path to improve our ability to listen, learn and offer freely. Take the path...”
