Episode description
A funny thing happened during a Curveball production meeting recently. Our junior producer Liam mentioned that his Mum thinks he needs a mentor. Liam explained that he had some in Rachel and Kellie, who work together to oversee the team that brings you Curveball.
But Kellie wasn’t sure she was a mentor to Liam. Sure, he’s given feedback. Sometimes even a pep talk. But is that the same as mentoring?
Mentors, coaches, champions. They are all people you might cultivate in your career. But what’s the difference between them, when do you need them, and how can you get one if you do!?
We decided to let you eavesdrop on our chat about mentors and champions and which leaders on Curveball swear by them.
