My mentor just left the company and now I feel totally adrift. They were the only one who really advocated for me, helped me prep for reviews, and gave honest feedback. I’m trying not to panic, but I already feel less visible. How do you stay motivated and on track when your biggest supporter is suddenly gone?

Keep going. Seasons change to grow and develop you further. Take the opportunity to advance and improve on your own. Then mentor someone who is where you were before.

That is tough, but this is an opportunity for you to kind of strike out on your own. Rarely will your whole career be with one mentor, manager, etc. Take everything you learned and use it to keep accomplishing goals. Plus, try to keep that connection even if they aren’t at the same company.

Stay in touch with them whether they are at the same company as you or not. They are still a great resource for information and future opportunities. You can take what they taught you and apply it. Make yourself visible, build a rapport with other leaders.

How do you handle a subordinate that goes around your decision making and goes higher up in the food chain? My boss (and their boss) made it clear I’m supposed to review and provide feedback and yet now they are fully saying no and going around me. I tried talking to them and it didn’t go well and they raised their voice and got rude with me when I was only inquiring. it’s at the point where I need To have a convo with my boss and I feel like the boss needs to set the precedent here
