Leaders of Impact Honors Great Mentors And Leaders
Entrepreneurs of Success sought nominations for great mentors for special recognition.
According to the U.S. Small Business Administration, mentors help small businesses to improve their chances of success and longevity.
They report that 70% of small businesses that received mentoring were still open five years later, which is a typical benchmark. Additionally, they report that in the same survey, 88% of business owners say that having a mentor was invaluable. Those who have excellent mentors can now nominate them to be recognized for their great leadership in Entrepreneurs of Success program, Leaders of Impact.
“There are so many excellent mentors out there who help lead entrepreneurs toward success,” explains Sara Khoudary, founder of Entrepreneurs of Success and the Mentor Momentum Community. “It’s time that they get the recognition they deserve, and we are going to help them do just that. We look forward to the nominations, selecting the winners, and sharing their words of advice with the world.”
A mentor is someone who guides you, helps you move past challenges, and provides you with the listening and feedback that is so often needed in the entrepreneurial field. Mentorship is often considered to be the missing link that businesses need. Those who have had a great mentor can nominate them for the “Leaders of Impact” recognition program, sharing how they have helped make an impact and leave a legacy.
Entrepreneurs who have had a great mentor can share how the person encouraged them, helped their business, and what that type of support has done for overall impact. Winners will be recognized in a virtual event in June 2021, they will be featured in their Mentor Momentum Community, and they will get to participate in a live event, have the option to become an honorary contributor to the community, be added to the website as a “Leader of Impact,” and become eligible to be nominated for the annual “Marion Award.”
“Think about who it was that helped you, guided you, and supported you along the way,” added Khoudary. “Now is the time to give back to them with this nomination so they are recognized for their selfless contributions. It’s an honor to be nominated for such an award, and an even bigger honor to be selected as a winner.”
Entrepreneurs of Success offers memberships to entrepreneurs, providing them with tools that will help them be more successful.
