Mentoring
Starting a business can be quite a challenge. Talking with an experienced person can really help clarify your main priorities. Mentors bring expertise in project planning, leadership, strategic planning, financial management and all other aspects of business development. Once matched, people are advised to meet their mentor at least once a month over an initial period of six months
