This fits in with one of my favorite quotes...
"Whatever quality or skill you want to develop, you "get it" by hanging out with people who have it...You achieve success and happiness by starting with the right teacher"
I have been interested in building a mentor program for some time. I agree that shadowing has big advantages. If you can add quality coaching to shadowing, man you have something there that is a powerful development tool.
One of the biggest obstacles to mentoring is the competitive environment of the automobile sales profession. A quality mentor would have to be established in their career and "above the fray." He or she too would have to be recognized by the dealership for their efforts.
The secret to success of a mentoring program then comes down to the right person with the right compensation and recognition.
