????利用新一代技術和用戶反饋對傳統模式進行補充，各種機構可以借此合作實現導師制的個性化，并對指導效果進行衡量。如果理想的話，可以更快地帶來積極的影響。我們在為學員與導師牽線搭橋的時候，針對性越強（例如，一名在零售業創業的三十歲左右的非洲裔美國女性，希望擴大規模，在西雅圖開設第二家分店，我們就可以直接針對她的需求，提供更加精確的指導），導師制的效果就會越好。

????5. 盡早開始

????隨著學生背負的助學貸款債務越來越多，而畢業之后的就業前景又持續低迷，因此千禧一代和他們的弟弟妹妹們痛苦地發現，他們父母那種一條直線的成功之路已經不復存在。目前，約63%的千禧一代都在從事低技能的零售工作，年收入不到30,000美元。

????這也正是盡早接觸創業思維至關重要的原因，甚至可以從幼兒園抓起。當然，并不是說我們期望美國五歲大的孩子們都能建立一家大公司，但如果今天的孩子們能夠了解未來的情況，那么在十年之后，他們踏入職場時就能應付自如。

????我們越早為胸懷壯志的創業者、學生和未來的CEO們提供創業指導，就越有可能終結就業不足、失業和低薪的惡性循環。要知道，這個問題正困擾著許多美國人。

????By supplementing traditional models with next-generation technology and user feedback, organizations can work together to personalize mentorship, measure outcomes, and, ideally, make a positive impact faster. The more targeted we can be when we connect mentees to mentors (e.g., offering precise mentoring that directly fits the needs of an African-American female 30-something retail entrepreneur expanding to a second location in Seattle), the more effective mentorship programs will become.

????5. Start early

????As student loan debt mounts and post-college employment outcomes remain dismal -- 63 percent of Millennials are working low-skill retail jobs, pocketing under $30,000 annually -- Gen Y and their younger siblings are painfully aware that their parent's linear path to success is disappearing.

????This is why exposure to entrepreneurial thinking -- even as early as kindergarten – is critical. Not because we expect our nation's five-year olds to go out and build the next big business, but because that same student a decade later will be better equipped to handle the future workplace if he or she has a sense of what's coming.

????The earlier we provide mentorship to aspiring entrepreneurs, students, and future CEOs, the better chance we have at putting an end to the chronic cycle of underemployment, joblessness, and low-wage work dogging many Americans today.
