Whether in sports, business, entertainment, personal relationships, or any other human endeavor where humans strive to achieve excellence, the highest performers have always had great coaches, guides and mentors. In this highly mobile world, the role traditionally performed by mentors has been consciously and systematically replaced by coaches. No longer is it the norm for an individual to stay within the typical family or business. No longer do we have as great an access to those who in the past may have served as teachers and mentors. The role of personal, business, and/or relationship coaches has dynamically shifted to account for those changes in our mobility. Even if one is fortunate to have a mentor, a coach’s role can be invaluable. In the mentoring process, the relationship tends to be informal and serendipitous in nature, limited to the skill set and experience of the mentor. Top and high-potential performers use personal coaches and amateurs, for the most part, do not.
