Mentors are important. Mentors are role models and they coach you to be successful. Mentors help you to be successful in what you want to do; whether it’s your business or job or hobbies or education. Mentors will lead you and guide you and give you advice.

Today I learned every business or organization needs to have a goal exit strategy, or a plan for how it could come to a successful, desirable conclusion. The most popular exit plan involves being acquired by a bigger business. Because in most cases, acquisitions result in the larger firm buying the smaller one, swallowing it, and running it internally, making the workers of the acquired company parent company employees. Though less frequently, buyers will occasionally permit the purchased business to carry on as usual and focus only on its revenues. Moreover, When a larger company buys a smaller competitor, it's typical for them to dissolve the smaller business and switch the consumers over to the acquiring company's product; in these situations, the acquisition was solely done to gain customers and lessen competition. In these situations the employees of the smaller company are sometimes given positions in the purchasing corporation. Another exit plan for a business is going public and starting to trade its stock on a stock exchange.

Work skills may be divided into two categories: hard skills and soft skills. Although they differ significantly from one another, both are essential for success in the workplace. Let's see how they differ from one another. Hard skills are practical abilities that are necessary for you to perform your profession and are particular to it. For instance, learning to cook would be difficult if you were a chef, and learning to code would be difficult if you were a computer programmer. On the other hand, soft skills are interpersonal or people abilities that are applicable to all jobs. These include adaptation, cooperation, and communication. Hard skills are generally learned through school training or previous work experience; they're more objective meaning that once you've learned the information or task you would then possess that soft skills are more difficult to develop. you'll need to practice them over time. In the real world with others they come naturally to some people while others may not have such an easy time with them hard skills are easy to measure. Employers can get a good idea of your hard skills by looking at your education, previous experience and certifications. Soft skills are harder to evaluate they can't really be communicated well through your cover letter or resume instead employers usually have to wait until an interview or your first few weeks on the job to get a good idea of your soft skills despite their differences you'll need both hard and soft skills if you want to become more successful in your current job.

Hi my name is Zhunhua and today I learned about mentorship. Mentors are role models that will coach you to succeed. Whether if it’s for your business or job it’s great to have a mentor to guide you. However, you should work hard and go for it yourself. Instead of waiting for a mentor to push you to do your work. Mentos are usually professional and you should respect their time by always being on time. Also don’t be afraid to ask questions. Your mentor is there to guide you and support you. And Every time you ask your mentor for a favor you should ask nicely and don’t forget to always say thank you.
