New Way of thinking
As a parent, you hope there are positive and significant people around to interact with your child, no matter their age, to help them navigate life.
Leigh Powell is a Business Strategist and Mentor within Kerryn's business, Your Time Matters, and has been a welcome addition to the team. Throughout his career in the banking and finance industry and also as a volunteer he has mentored a range of people, both men and women.
One of his business mentees, a member of YTM says of Leigh ….
“Leigh has great insights into how business works and uses this to guide and mentor his clients into thinking about their businesses in new ways. When I first became small business owner Leigh was instrumental in challenging my thinking, helping me to understand how to work on my business and keep me accountable.”
However, today the conversation is not solely about business mentoring but his experience from volunteering in various capacities and how conversations have played a major part.
Earlier in this series of podcasts Kerryn spoke with the CEO of Fitted for Work, Donna de Zwart ** and it is through Leigh’s VOLUNTEERING as a mentor for Fitted for Work that we have become strong advocates of that organisation.
During this episode, you will be prompted by the conversation to :-
reflect on the role of a mentor versus a coach,
how vulnerability is a two way process,
and, the importance of building rapport.
PLUS- you might be surprised by who Leigh would like to have dinner with and how a new way of thinking might just be what we need.
