Having a new employee is an exciting time. There’s a new person to introduce to your team, someone to show around the company, and the learning curve of finding how this person’s experience and talents can translate to your team and company's value-add. As you go through life and your career, there will come times when you need a little advice. Everyone needs some help or some perspective from time to time, and knowing you’ve got someone in your corner to help steer you in the right direction can make all the difference. It’s important to find a good mentor, someone who knows where you’ve been and where you want to go and can help you achieve all your goals. But how do you find a mentor -- more importantly, how can you find the right mentor for you? This might sound like the set-up to a joke, but it’s not: What’s the difference between a boss and a leader? Much like squares and rectangles, bosses can be leaders, and leaders can be bosses, but they’re not always the same thing at the same time.
