Rick Woolworth on Whole-Life Mentorship

Rick Woolworth was the Co-Founder and President of the Telemachus Network, an organization dedicated to building a national community of leaders who form intergenerational friendships lasting for years and, in many cases, decades. After spending three decades on Wall Street, Rick and his wife, Jill, co-founded Telemachus in 2010.

Rick joined Matt and Ben for this episode for a conversation focused on the value of mentorship for leaders at any stage of life.

This interview was recorded earlier in the fall and was scheduled for future release. But Rick's sudden death this past week made it seem all the more important to share it now. We hope it's a small testimony to Rick's legacy.
