Sooner or later, you are going to change jobs. A better offer will come your way, and it’ll be the perfect next step for your career. Or someone who works for you is going to move on to the next big thing for them. So, whether you’re leaving or someone else is leaving, how do you handle that transition well?

When I was in college, I went to an information session at the law school. This moment sticks in my mind because I unexpectedly saw a family friend there. He ended up going to law school. I did not. In fact, I didn’t do anything in the world of laws and courtrooms after that session—other than the occasional jury duty. Why? Because it didn’t feel right.

A few years ago, my friend’s triplets were looking for a way to earn some money. They settled on a lemonade stand—with a twist. Instead of setting up business in front of their home, on the corner, or near the grocery store, the kids opted to operate on the sidelines of a nearby high school football field—just as practice was concluding. They weren’t sure their lemonade would sell; no one had ever tried the football field.

When I ask people to name someone who has been a meaningful mentor in their lives, the most common response sounds something like this: “There are so many. I don’t know where to start.” Some of the most influential mentoring we will receive in our lifetime occurred when we were much younger.
