In this episode of Conversations Ignite, we welcome Doug Lawrence, an experienced mentor, international bestselling author, and founder of TalentC – People Services Inc. With over 35 years of mentoring and leadership experience, Doug dives into the powerful role mentorship plays in personal growth, mental health, and professional development.
Doug shares his journey from coaching university students to co-founding the International Mentoring Community and developing certified mentorship programs that support both individuals and organizations. He discusses how mentorship can be a critical support system—especially for those dealing with grief, mental health struggles, or reintegration after military service.
A strong advocate for active listening, empathy, and humility, Doug emphasizes that true mentorship is never one-size-fits-all. Instead, it’s about building trust, meeting people where they are, and empowering them to discover their own solutions.
