♟️ Mentors that made an impact on Mike:

Shoutout to  Rishad Tobaccowala, who taught Mike to play the long game and steer clear of short-term politics. Christian Kugel showed him how to have fun while pushing for excellence

😌 Confidence and Optimism Breed Results

Mentorship should spark your team’s confidence. Confident people take bigger bets, and that’s where real growth happens

🌊 Embrace Failure

If your failures aren’t getting bigger over time, you’re likely not innovating enough (inspired by Jeff Bezos). Encourage your team to try, fail, learn, and repeat.

👂Active Listening

Instead of planning your response, really lean in and ask “why?” multiple times to uncover valuable insights.

This was a great convo; thank you, Mike. The best employers are the ones that invest in their people. Ready. Set. Grow.
