What makes a good mentor? And what should you do to be a good mentee? In our final episode of Level Up, we'll answer these questions and talk about how to get started with your own mentorship relationship.
We're joined by Lucy Lloyd, Co-founder of Mentorloop, which is an online matchmaking site for mentoring relationships. She shares the lessons she's learned from observing hundreds of mentorship relationships in action.
In an interesting twist, however, we learn that Lucy's own relationship with her mentor isn't the formal relationship you might expect from someone who runs a business focused on mentoring. Sure, Lucy and her mentor Aaron Wallis guide each other through some tricky business challenges, but they also like to enjoy a few cheeky wines along the way.

Today's episode captures one of the more unique styles of mentoring relationships — 'co-mentoring'.
Mark and Marty are, independently, two very successful entrepreneurs. And they've joined forces to leverage the power of co-mentoring one another.
But … their relationship began under some pretty unique circumstances as well. It all started when Mark turned up to a job interview at Marty's company wearing a neck brace. As it turns out, he'd broken his neck.

Australian radio legend, Jules Lund, had a great business idea and the determination, confidence and contacts to pull it off. However, he quickly realised that although he had the enthusiasm, he didn't quite have the business acumen to make TRIBE successful …

In today's episode of Level Up, Jules and Ant teach us what they've learnt about open communication, how to learn from each other's strengths, and the value of confronting conflict head-on.

You've never heard of a company profit share like this.
Wanting to take a more systematic approach to how the company shares its profit the team at the top gets a small team in HR together to keep a secret and get busy.
What they do will only ever and can only ever happen once at Envato.

Being a huge website makes you a big target for people with bad intentions.
And when they decide to act it can often come in the form of a distributed denial of service attack - a DDOS attack.
What happens when Envato's targeted and how do they respond?

In a Friday meeting Collis Ta'eed's phone starts buzzing. Someone appears at the window.
Then half the executive team are waiting outside.
Something's going on.
It's one thing to have values, it's another to stand by them even if it negatively affects the business.
When push came to shove Envato's made those choices.
Almost more than any other, "Values" is the word people at Envato used when describing the company.

Envato has never taken outside investment. For a tech company if this size that’s a very rare feat.
While many start ups chase venture capital to aid growth, validation and scale, Envato has been building over a decade uninfluenced by investors looking for an exit.

This season we look into a Victorian company that's best described as a spaceship.
Experiencing Envato from within makes the world outside that's not on either side of the marketplace almost irrelevant.
Though it's in Envato's powerful and human focused values that keep it familiar, give it a conscience and inspire those who work for or with the incredibly successful digital marketplace.
Actually it's many marketplaces. And more.
Over 50 interviews with employees of all levels, past and present, reveal what a lightning strike this company is and how it'll have a hand in so much of what we see, hear, watch and experience online.
