Business Mentoring 101
Quote from Ndubuisi Ekekwe on March 30, 2018, 5:10 PM
In business, do not aspire to replicate the business model of your mentor. He/she had probably locked up the best opportunity under first-mover advantage. Besides, when you create a separation in a new sector, you would get the best support from him/her. Look for an uncontested sector [for both of you] and plot a way he/she can assist.

Same is applicable in mentorship, you have to come up with something different or do the same thing differently, in order to guarantee your survival.
