Mr. G,,,,
Laudible characteristics.
Several of the characteristics lacking are:
Honesty,
Vulerability, and
guilessness in the case of transmitting knowledge and technique.
Lacking the above the mentor-prote'ge' relationship in this business will
sour rather quickly, when the
master say's, "Put another dime in the record machine. "
When the Mentor is partially motivated by being needy upon the student for
his/her livlihood, the
relationship is poisonous..
Best Regards.
Don
