The Invisible Tax Of Mentorship Advice
We talk about the hidden costs of mentorship, but what if the advice itself is the problem? In this episode, we explore how well-meaning guidance can create dependency and stifle independent decision-making. Using a specific case from a mid-level manager in the tech sector, we examine why receiving too much direction can be more harmful than not having a mentor at all. We discuss the difference between coaching and directing, and how to set boundaries that protect your autonomy while still gaining valuable insights.
