In finding the right people to provide feedback on your work, seek out those whose opinions you respect and who are entirely on your side. Ask yourself, Who are my trusted advisors? When you’ve come up with a handful of candidates, “create your own advisory board,” Kelley says. The earlier you can get work to your “advisory board,” the better; their early input may help you avoid wasting time polishing and tweaking something that actually needs reworking.
This is your mentoring circle.
