The mentors who open doors

The year I spent doing my MBA at INSEAD has been one of the most memorable and exciting years of my life. It didn't change the course of my career drastically but it did change me as a person in fundamental ways. There is something to be said about being surrounded by super smart people from across the globe with different professional and cultural backgrounds. It's a life-altering experience hard to put in words.

I went to INSEAD solely because of a chance conversation with a mentor who nudged me to explore this option.

This is just one example of how leaders shape lives for the better. Their influence extends far beyond work.

Three ways good leaders shape you and your life:

1. Open eyes: make you see and notice things you can't see for yourself.

2. Open minds: inspire you to do things that you didn't think you were capable of doing.

3. Open doors: connect you to people and opportunities that you won't have access to on your own.
