In the simplest terms, a mentor is anyone who possesses more experience and knowledge than you in a given industry. They have skills you want to master in order to thrive. And you’d rather lean on their experience and expertise and learn from their mistakes, rather than having to go and make those same mistakes on your own.

Entrepreneurs need mentors especially, and perhaps more than other professionals, simply because it is nearly impossible to formally teach entrepreneurship in any controlled setting. There are just too many variables that will inevitably change from entrepreneur to entrepreneur and business to business.

In this episode, Malcolm Ethridge speaks with Ron Bauer, a venture capitalist and the founder of Theseus Capital, about the role mentorship plays in the success of a startup founder. Ron shares his roadmap to success for entrepreneurs, talks about mentoring entrepreneurs, and how founders can find the right mentor for the right moment.

Ron discusses:

  • How he applies a hands-on, academic methodology to the way he invests, and his hands-on approach to mentoring his entrepreneurs
  • His roadmap to success for startup founders
  • How to be proactive in the current market and how long he anticipates it lasting
  • How to find the right mentor for what you need at the moment
  • Why you should do something you enjoy and not focus solely on doing something to make money
