Mentor Roles

[Zebra_Fact_Man]

Something not mentioned yet in this thread is that because every team has a unique team culture, not every mentor will fit comfortably in every team. My former teams and my current team follow distinctly different season philosophies and that's ok.

If you feel like you have something to offer and you are not being listened to, talk to team leadership about how you feel. The worst thing you can do is not tell other people on the team how you feel. If they are not receptive to your feeling, this offseason might be the time to look for a new team that more closely fits you build philosophies.

There are dozens of teams in your state that could use your help. Don't feel pigeon-holed into one team.
