I've said it, and many others have too: Having a mentor is a vital part of professional growth. In fact, they're not just the key to your business; they're the key to your personal success. 

Here's my suggestion: Think of your group of mentors as a personal advisory board, packed with a diverse set of perspectives.

For me, for example, having a mentor from every generation is an incredible way to gain insights and learnings. 

I believe personal growth is fundamental to becoming a better leader. That means surrounding yourself with people who are willing to tell you what you're good at, what you're bad at, and when you have blind spots.
