More mentoring tips for insurance agents

Monday, August 31st, 2009

I didn’t realize mentoring was a hot topic. :) Shortly after I’d written last week’s blog post about mentoring, I picked up my copy of this month’s Agent’s Sales Journal again and realized they also featured an article about mentoring.

ASJ staff writer Jenny Israel’s special feature titled “Mentoring 101: How to Foster Professional Relationships that Work” offers great tips and guidelines for any insurance agent looking for a mentor or mentee.

Some of Israel’s tips:

  • Mentors should demonstrate integrity.
  • Mentees should be willing to take initiative.
  • Mentors should have vision.
  • Mentors and mentees should have similar interests.
