Sylvia Barrera explains that when mentoring coaches and administrators, it is essential to be a good listener and to share your own knowledge and experience. Be honest and acknowledge that you are not the best but that you will always give your best. Perfection is what many people are striving for, but it is unactable as the stick is always being moved. Focus on being your best in your role and everything just flows.
