National Mentoring Month in January is a time to recognize the impact of mentors and the benefits of mentoring. This past summer, the Detroit Pistons partnered with Cranbrook Horizons-Upward Bound (HUB) through our Beyond the Baseline program to expose students to career opportunities in sports. Students participated in weekly sessions at the Henry Ford Pistons Performance Center, as well as one-on-one mentoring with participating Pistons employees.

Re-Entry is a failed experiment. The work that we do with second-chance individuals in our Re-Planting program is changing lives and communities. We teach personal power, leadership and career development to equip job-ready, productive citizens.

Gen Z, we're early in our careers, which means we have a world of opportunities. But we're only as good as our last success. The last big project that was a big win. The last presentation where you killed it. The last time you solved a huge problem saving everyone time. We shouldn't let ourselves lose motivation. Instead we should use our wins to move forward. I've been complacent. Patting myself on the back for a win that's months old. Not using that momentum. That's what you shouldn't do. Take what you've done and compound it. You can always do better. While still appreciating your wins and accomplishments. This means taking time to celebrate. And still looking towards the future. What was your last big win?

“Side-hustle,” “side-gig,” “moonlighting.” These phrases often carry a negative connotation in white-collar work environments. Many view maintaining a second job with suspicion, often seeing it as something done out of necessity. In today’s competitive job market, it’s time to rethink second jobs as opportunities to learn leadership skills, gain knowledge of other industries, and add depth to an individual. Modern college students are required to do this through interdisciplinary classes, but why stop learning at graduation? Hands-on experience outside of 9-5 enriches both skills and capabilities. I've gained hands-on leadership experience through my time race directing for the largest karting series in the country. Starting locally in 2021, I worked my way up to Head Race Director for the United States Pro Kart Series, leading a team of up to 15 individuals. Racing’s high-stress environment demands balancing diverse personalities and delivering well-received events. It’s a challenging but rewarding experience. As an associate banker, daily leadership opportunities are rare, making my “side-gig” experience invaluable. Let’s promote personal development and build all-star teams.

This week on "A Quick Walk with Brent Williams," I was joined by Jim Hudson, Secretary of the Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration.

We also touched on the exciting opportunities available for young professionals at DFA, both for long-term careers and shorter-term rotations.

SPARTANS AMONG US This last weekend we had 4 of our #Bedminster #team members unite for a Spartan Race! John Paciga and Roger Barlow are no stranger to these events as they always seem to be #training for the next one. Joining our seasoned #veterans in running up the mountain were Maggie Rogers and Kyle O'Neil. John always tells me that his favorite aspect of the race is that you get to #achieve something as a team. There is a #pride he takes in ensuring the #success of others, be it their first race or their fifth race. This #mindset is evident throughout our office. The #willingness to #help lift someone up, to #achieve their #potential and push past what they thought #possible. The view from the top is made even better with the right #company! There is always room on our team for those who feel the same way. Bedminster Leadership Team: Managing Director - John Kozakis, CFP Growth & Development Director - Jonathan V.
