Mentorship

I have been thinking about work today.  What are the factors that make someone successful at work?  Skill?  Yes.   Knowledge?  Yes.  Passion for the work?  Yes.   One thing that has helped me succeed is informal mentorship.  Supervisors who know how to give feedback.  People who model good behaviours.  People who stand by you when you make honest mkstakes.  People who explain how your work fits in the bigger picture.   So as this weekend starts I want to say thank-you to Barrie, Dave, Deborah, and Ronna.   All masterful mentors.
