The combination of empathy, listening and knowledge

Business mentors use their careers so far to add hard earned experience to the discussion and to ensure that old mistakes are not repeated.

Axios business mentors are all highly experienced individuals, we have all been directors of small and/or large companies and we are all able to draw upon our valuable personal experiences. We know that mistakes are actually valuable lessons and we like to give those lessons to our clients without the need to revisit the pain.

Equally critically, as a Axios business mentor it is essential that you are and remain impartial in the advice and support you give. Often entrepreneurs use friends and family as their business mentor, that never works. The mentor is not truly impartial and the advice given will be tainted by a personal relationship and a need to remain friends rather than give the feedback which is best for the business.

One recent client who needed to remove her life partner from mentoring her said:

...thank you for supporting me through that very difficult decision.

...you give me the confidence and strength to be able to run my own business.

Our experience is that mentors and those being mentored must work as equals, after all each brings something special to the meeting and it is that combination of strengths which achieves real results.

By working as equals our business mentors are able to give totally impartial and professional advice. We know it works when we get feedback such as:

“I am very happy that you were willing to give some quite plain advice”
