How to Be a Mentor Leader

Mentor leaders are different than other leaders. Why? Because they walk alongside the people they lead…every step of the way.

So check out how to best walk alongside the people you lead:

1. Encourage them. Always be ready and willing to encourage the people you lead. That means offering kind words as often as you can–complimenting their character, their actions, and their successes.
2. Support them. Next, it’s of the utmost important to support the people you lead. Support their choices and decisions, knowing that they have learned from your leadership. Your support will mean more to them than anything else.
3. Challenge them. And finally, never stop challenging the people you lead. Constantly challenge them to go the extra mile or pursue what they think is impossible. Because that is when the best work and the biggest dreams are accomplished.
