Glenn Furuya - Mentorship Moments (TRUST - NEW VIDEO)

We've had so many great comments that have come in on the topic of TRUST within Mentorship Relationships.

It was a special treat for us to meet with Glenn Furuya, President & CEO at Leadership Works, LLC a number of months ago in Honolulu, Hawaii. Glenn is an expert in leadership and employee development - serving a wide variety of clients and industries throughout the world since 1982. 

Here's a portion of the discussion where Glenn talks about TRUST within a Mentorship relationship. It was most insightful as he clarified an interesting dynamic that he calls, "The 3 - RITY". The presence of Charity, Clarity and Integrity within the relationship will definitely be critical to the success that is experienced by both the Mentor and the Mentee.

Here is a short video containing this portion of our interview with Glenn. 

Our full interview with Glenn Furuya can also be found on our YouTube Channel and a direct link to Glenn's full interview is provided by clicking HERE.

Here are a few of the key thoughts from the video: 

     Glenn Furuya - Mentorship Moments (TRUST)

Glenn highlights that mentorship is grounded in Trust.

The "3 - RITY" are made up of:

Charity - the Mentee needs to know that the Mentor is coming from the right place, and that they have a genuine care for the well-being of the Mentee.

Clarity - The Mentee needs to know and appreciate that the Mentor can help them find clarity of direction, thought, and navigate their way through difficult times.

Integrity - The Mentee needs to see that the Mentor 'walks the talk' and that their values match their behaviours and actions.

The bottom line: Can the Mentee TRUST the Mentor in these critical aspects of their relationship?

We look forward to hearing your thoughts on Mentorship, or on developing a mentorship program for your organization.
