Ever confused a mentor with a manatee? You're not alone! Our latest episode of Auto Care ON AIR starts with this lighthearted mix-up before diving into the impactful topic of mentorship. Joining host, Jacki Lutz, are auto care industry professionals Lisa Kellett, Business Development Manager at AutoZone, and Mike Mohler, EVP and CPO of APSG, who share personal stories of how mentors have played pivotal roles in their careers. We promise you'll gain fresh perspectives on how these relationships can shape personal and professional growth, moving beyond typical narratives to explore deeper emotional impacts.
We explore the nuances of mentorship, emphasizing how these connections often form organically, without the need for formal arrangements. Through real-life anecdotes, we highlight how mentors can empower by genuinely caring and encouraging resilience and critical thinking. The discussions also touch on the universal human experience shared across all levels of the industry, from CEOs to janitors, focusing on the importance of trust and emotional support within mentor-mentee relationships. Whether it's through direct approaches or recognizing unspoken needs, the proactive role of a mentor can be transformative.
From tackling why mentees might hesitate to seek help to celebrating the joys of mutual learning, this episode is packed with insights. We also discuss how mentorship can be a remedy for the isolation that often comes with today's remote work environments. Our conversation underscores the fun and camaraderie that make mentorship not only beneficial but enjoyable. Encouraging gratitude and engagement, we aim to inspire listeners to embrace mentorship opportunities and foster a more connected, thriving auto care industry.
