From the Back Cover
Were it not for ____________, I wouldn’t be who I am today
Men have a way of rubbing off on one another—for better or worse. You will be influenced and you will influence, especially when you have regular one-on-one interactions with another man. Be intentional and become the man God made you to be, while learning to change other men’s lives for the better.
Men of Influence teaches you the importance of mentoring, how to find a good mentor, and what you can offer others as a mentor (even if you don’t feel qualified). Learn:
- how to approach a mentor without scaring him off
- what to expect at the beginning, middle, and end of a mentoring relationship
- what you have to offer to another man
People change one person at a time. Realize your full potential and help others do the same through the simple practice of mentoring.
