Have you found yourself saying: “It can’t be nearly July already – are we really halfway through the year?” Time flies, not just when you’re not having fun, but merely embroiled in your day-to-day work. Managing time at work is a perennial challenge.

Jan Bowen-Nielsen is the Co-founder and Managing Director of Quiver Management. Renowned for excellence in executive and business coaching, the company’s 15 coaches, trainers and consultants work with corporates and professional firms across the UK and internationally.

Mentoring is just giving good advice, isn't it? Not quite. Being a mentor is a really rewarding experience. You are able to share your wisdom and experience. You are "giving something back" and making a difference. However, the very fact that you as the mentor are more experienced and probably older can lead to one of the biggest pitfalls: that you start to give advice.
