What are you looking to gain from your mentor relationship? Are you looking for accountability or a handout? Are you even a good mentee? If so, what makes you one? Rarely is the mentee role discussed outside of the strategies to secure mentors and the surface level tactics to keep them. On this episode of the BYLU Campaign podcast, Daniel and Nathan discuss “The Mentee Chronicles: Finding Myself,” the January article, where Nate explores the in’s and out’s of the mentee-mentor relationship. Tune in as we discuss the prerequisites to being mentored, and Nate shares his shortcomings as a mentee.
