“Has anyone ever asked you to mentor them? It is a humbling experience: it makes you re-evaluate your own assumptions and prejudices. Imagine being asked to mentor someone in a foreign country with different customers and pressures? Just before you dismiss this out of hand the experience will be life changing. I have just returned from Jordan where I had the most amazing time. My mentee is a Palestinian named Amjad, who is setting up a business to sell language courses on mobile phones. He believes the Mowgli programme to be incredibly important in helping him achieve his objectives.”
