- Sylvia Garner: What I learned as a mentor by Sylvia Garner via Florida Today “I walked away from every mentoring session feeling that I’d learned just as much as the mentees.”
In addition to bringing you to the best articles on mentoring each week, MentorCloud's Web Worthy series will be sharing two articles featuring key business insights from some of the top publications. This week's insights address constructing a marketing plan. The Takeaway:
- How to Create a Marketing Plan via Entrepreneur “Developing the plan is the "heavy lifting" of marketing. While executing the plan has its challenges, deciding what to do and how to do it is marketing's greatest challenge.”
- 5 Lessons B2B Marketers Can Learn From B2C by Marc Jadoul via Business 2 Community “The most attentive listeners (or the most active question askers) in the room are often not always the ones who own the budget. Try to identify upfront who has the real decision power and draw a power-map of your audience.”
