The People PrincipleBook by Ron Willingham
People have unlimited potential that has been largely unrecognized and untapped. When discovered and accessed, this potential can lead them to far greater levels of productivity than they ever imagined, causing them to feel better about themselves and enjoy life more.
![Page 10: YF Nat School Based Mentoring](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a8df491a28ab0d0d8b4820/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
When have you been mentored?
Identify a person in your life
whose belief in you
influenced you
to be where
you are
today

How to influence people?
Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them become what they are capable of being.
Effective mentoring begins by seeing greatness in people who don’t see it in themselves and then helping them discover it. It’s treating people as if they were what they can become.

TRUST
Few things help an individual more than to
place responsibility upon him and let him know that
you trust him.Booker T. Washington

What can you do “add value” to the job?

Mentoring
People will just naturally get more done when you regularly
and systematically mentor them into new levels of self-discovery
and personal effectiveness.

Managing versus Mentoring
You Manage Things
You Mentor People
Managing is something you do “TO” people
Mentoring is something you do “WITH” people
Mentoring is a privilege & an awesome responsibility
