Mentor Made Millionaire

De: Chad Shannon

Narrado por: Ken Whitehead

Mentor Made Millionaire is an insightful, thought-provoking dissection of what it takes to be a success in today’s money-centric society. It is designed to appeal to individuals on the path to success, managers, and business owners.

These days, we see the well-worn phrase "self-made millionaire" practically everywhere. While Dr. Chad Shannon does not set out in Mentor Made Millionaire to diminish the hard work put in by those remarkable individuals who achieve this accolade, his aim is to make the listener realize that not one of them could possibly have accomplished that aspirational status all by themselves.

This is where Dr. Shannon presents his unique concept of mentor-made success. He details the important steps in the process of seeking out and nurturing strong mentor relationships, and he stresses the importance of the "pay it forward" philosophy in mentoring others. He also covers the major pitfalls experienced by so many people aiming for success today: relying too much upon the top 20% of their staff, giving away too much information to "friends", attempting to mentor those who are unwilling to be mentored, and facing people who lack commitment.

Overall, Mentor Made Millionaire is an invaluable tool for all leaders, and it provides a simple - yet incredibly powerful - message to its listeners: No one can become a success all by themselves.

Local listener

Great to hear insight from a local community leader. Full of advice that everyone can benefit from. I appreciated the bits of local history that only someone that's lived in the area would know and understand.

Excellent book for both new and seasoned professionals!

Dr. Shannon’s experiences throughout his military and subsequent professional career provide valuable insight for any up and coming leader. His deeply personal anecdotes about his struggles to balance his family life and his professional life help underscore our need for both personal and professional mentors. Reading Mentor Made Millionaire has me reflecting on the mentors I have been so fortunate to have in my career and personal life; and it has certainly opened my eyes to how I can help mentor those around me to help them achieve their full potential. I am purchasing this book for several of my colleagues and my entire management team! I Highly Recommend!

New Perspective On Life

Well written book by Dr. Shannon. This book gave me a whole new perspective on relationships and on being "rich". Society puts importance on material possessions and Dr. Shannon shows us the value of pouring ourselves and our time into relationships. After reading this book, I can look back and value the mentors in my life. I may not have much money, but I am truly "rich" in friendships. I wouldn't be the person I am today, without the lessons and relationships that I have built throughout my life.
Although I am too old to be starting a career now, Dr. Shannon gives amazing advice for career oriented people and those in leadership positions. I highly recommend this book and hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
