Be ‘Mr. Miyagi’ or find one! A talk about the power of mentoring
summary
Chronicles show mentorship produces measurable gains: an apprenticeship model with one hour a week of mentor time accelerates learning and reduces costly delays, linked to outcomes like winning a difficult discrimination case, moving from tester to software engineer, and national sports championships. Cited numbers include 75% skills shortage and an estimated $1.775 trillion 2022 financial hit from missing skills, so structured mentoring (matchmaking, trust, agenda, feedback) is presented as a concrete, scalable remedy.
