Spring 2021: Session 175 (Why Every First-Gen Entrepreneur Needs a Business Mentor with Traniece Bruce)
from The First-Gen Lounge
It's a well-known fact that only 10% of new startups succeed. It's hard out there; everyone is doing their best to stay relevant, and so the competition is fierce. However, knowing what to do and when to take risks requires a high degree of expertise that's not readily available to the average newbie. For first-gen college graduates, the easiest way to maneuver the first few days of entrepreneurship is by welcoming guidance and mentorship. Unfortunately, most first-gen college graduates don’t have access to top-tier executives. Plus, people don’t just go out and recruit mentors; the relationship has to develop over time. But remember, some experts argue that a good mentor can be the difference between success and failure for most entrepreneurs. And while failure can be a good teacher, it's more beneficial to learn from someone that's already been there.
