Mentorship is a craft that blends empathy, insight, and intentional support. In this Forbes Coaches Council Expert Panel, 14 leadership coaches shared the key habits and behaviors that set great mentors apart. I'm inspired by fellow leaders who understand listening without judgment to empowering growth through critical questioning.

"Great mentors look out for you. I am all about being proactive—100%! Everyone should find a mentor if they can. I also believe the right thing to do when someone has not had the same privileges in life as others is for leaders to take a step back with compassion. A good mentor will feel compelled to act. They will find you. They notice who is not asking for help, but needs it, and they give it kindly."
