When asked about the challenges that Manjunath faced in mentoring people, this is what he said.
“I am so happy to have got this question at this time of my life. Though I was happy about making a positive difference to people, I did not enjoy the process of achieving it. On introspection, I understood that by guiding people in overcoming their challenges, I was operating at the level of – I KNOW BUT YOU DO NOT KNOW. Though I delivered the results for my Clients, I did not empower them.
I realized that the quality of my service would automatically enhance if I were to empower individuals to overcome their challenges, instead of guiding them. After all, Empowerment is all about transferring the full power of one’s intellect and experience to another, while guiding is about holding those powers in oneself and using them to help others.
I thus went on a transformational journey in my Mentoring Profession, and have designed an Empowering Program that would help my esteemed clients in leading the life of a Powerhouse.”
To help people and guide them for better future, Mr. Manjunath is starting DynaMinds- an empowering and experiential self-paced learning course platform. This platform will enable the learners to identify their strengths and challenges from 52 dimensions of one’s persona. Mr. Manjunath says- “In my stint as a Mentor, while guiding several thousand individuals in acquiring new skills, building their competencies, and marching on a journey of continuous improvement, I have observed that a significantly large percentage of challenges faced by individuals fall under two main categories. The first category involves a lack of clarity in their goals and objectives. Many individuals struggle to define what they truly want to achieve, which leads to unfocused efforts and scattered results. Without a clear vision, it becomes challenging to chart a path forward, causing unnecessary frustration and wasted resources.
The second category pertains to insufficient support systems. Even the most motivated individuals can falter if they lack a robust network of mentors, peers, and resources to guide and assist them. This support is crucial for providing feedback, encouragement, and a sense of community. It also includes access to proper tools and knowledge that are essential for skill development and competency building.
By addressing these two fundamental issues—clarifying goals and strengthening support systems—individuals can overcome many of the obstacles that hinder their progress. As a mentor, my focus has been on helping individuals navigate these challenges, thereby enabling them to achieve their full potential and embark on a continuous journey of self-improvement.”
