I'm honored to host this guest blog by Elizabeth Weber about her summer interning at a financial firm in Hong Kong. The lessons she shares at age 20 are ones many of us don't even learn in our 40's, 50's or our lives. She's bringing these lessons home, as Co-President of the Entrepreneur Program at Brown. Please learn from her, share and impact others.

Why Mentoring Matters

Mills Scofield

I'm posting these comments for you to see how fabulous our Gen-Y'ers are ( not to be boastful or bragging, I'm just honored to be able to meet these kids). Their ability to listen, distill, discern, learn, apply and share are way beyond what ours were at their age, let alone 10, 20, 30 years older. We need to listen, distill, discern, learn, apply and share their wisdom with the rest of the world.
