Great post. I’m curious how you differentiate “coaching” from “mentorship”? Some of the examples here seem to pertain to both.
And they might not be mutually exclusive. Mick feels like both a coach to Rocky (day to day in the ring) and a mentor (dropping the Yoda-level nuggets of wisdom from lived experience)
That’s a good point. Maybe Apollo Creed was more of the mentor than Mick. I do think there is quite an overlap but would say a coach is more active in developing a specific area where mentorship is a different altitude of activeness.
