Mentors

Recently I attended the Arizona Music Educators Association Conference. It is always a boost to go and spend the weekend with like minded individuals and share ideas.

I was planning on attending a session on breathing techniques but the clinician was a no show. So I just decided to go to the session next door. Who would have thought it would turn into one of my favorite sessions of the weekend.

The session was on Mentors and the presenter was Tim Sharp.

It really made me think about the importance of being a mentor and to reflect on who were/are my unofficial mentors? Also, how to be a better mentor.

He listed some of the top polled characteristics of a mentor and from that list here were my favorites:

  • Enthusiastic
  • Confident
  • An authority in the field
  • Career and life balance
  • Intellectual diplomacy and humility
  • Spiritual integrity
  • Encouraging
  • Friendly
  • Intense

Some of my favorite lines from the session were:
