Is a Mentee who upon succeeding has forgotten his Mentor, a worth Mentor to be remembered by his Mentees upon their succeeding ?
Deep and unseen are the influences and contributions of a Mentor to the success of his mentees. But surely without those , success would not have been possible, in the same measures.
If upon reaching the pinnacle of success the Mentee consigns to oblivion the role and contributions of his Mentor, he reflects to his Mentees in return, the real shades of his true character which will certainly not make his Mentees proud of him.
Rightly, philosophers say that attitude of gratitude is the habitude of greatness and the fortitude of his character as a great leader.
I have generally started my senior level interviews by conversing about the Mentors , their role and contributions to the interviewees success. The narrative that follows will reveal a great deal.
Try it.
