2. Mentor:
The Questioner & Listener
• Mentor Do Thu Giang, CEO of Green Generation
• “The founders withdrew the causes and lessons by
themselves and for their own. We just went through the
process together.”
• “So far it is truly an exciting experience.. and we all do
not know the destination of the journey.”

3. Mentor:
Problem-solving & Leadership
Capacity Builder
• Mentor Phan Dinh Tuan Anh, Founder &
CEO of Angel4Us
• Nguyen An Lanh, Founder BonPas Bakery
• “After six months, I realize there is a logic
of thinking and a methodology of
problem solving from my mentor’s
guidance. And, most important, the
‘thinking habit’ that my mentor trained
me throughout mentoring sessions does
help me to automatically identify
problems and how I should approach it
by myself later on.”
