Great advice about cultivating and maintaining relationships with mentors!

[Jonah Perlin @JonahPerlin]

I had coffee with a stellar former student yesterday who asked a great question:

"I know it’s important to keep in touch with mentors & former supervisors but how do you recommend doing that?"

Here was my answer:

As school starts, here's some advice I've given over the years to first-gen students and related others doubting whether they have the same foundations for success as their peers due to upbringing. Many will soon wonder, “Am I out of my depth?”

Some things you should know. 1/

'Decades of studies have shown that the people most satisfied with their work are those who find a fundamental match between their employer’s values and their own.' Wise words from @arthurbrooks and echoed by OPIA. https://t.co/RJ9XbYqtei

"You won’t necessarily be able to plot each step from day one, but as you move along, new directions and possibilities will become clearer."

I’m rejecting the career ladder metaphor in favor of the career river. Here’s why:

1. The ultimate goal of the career ladder is: reach the top.

The ultimate goal of the career river is: reach your ocean - a thriving, wide-open ecosystem fed by other rivers to explore. /
