20 Lessons That Build a Leader: A Conversational Mentoring Guide

Mentorship is something many of us seek—but many of us feel unqualified to be a mentor to others.

You may think becoming a mentor is too time demanding and too challenging, and because of this, you disqualify yourself from mentoring before you have ever given it a try.

But mentorship begins with taking a risk. Risking a little bit of your time and sharing a little bit of your wisdom with someone else, while fighting the urge to disqualify yourself.

In this book, Vince Miller highlights 20 simple lessons that not only teach fundamental leadership lessons but empower a mentor with some great conversations that take the guesswork out of mentoring others. Discover character-based leadership principles and simultaneously develop your skill in mentoring others and become a leader for positive change—be a mentor.

This book is a great tool that can be used for one-on-one mentorship, in small groups, or with leadership teams. There are amazing insights within each lesson and discussion questions which will help you become a great leader and mentor.

Vince Miller inspires men to lead, mentor, and disciple others with an intelligent argument for faith, inspiring presentation of the gospel, and stories of choices he made as a man, husband, and father.

After serving in notable ministry organizations for over 28 years (including Young Life, InterVarsity, TCU Football, and Eagle Brook Church), Vince founded Resolute, a non-profit organization focused on providing men with tools for discipleship and mentorship. He’s written 16 books and handbooks, along with small group videos that are resources for mentorship.
