A good mentor is like a guiding light, illuminating the path ahead with knowledge and experience. They help their mentees grow, develop and reach their full potential.
On the other hand, a bad mentor usually lacks the proper education and knowledge, which can skew their personal experiences, rendering their advice useless. This leaves the mentee feeling frustrated and lost.
When we compare the two mentors, one tends to provide conflicting advice, which can confuse or even undermine their mentees’ confidence. While the other is based on science and common sense. Every step forward should be a validation that they are on the right path.
