The Value of Mentorship

Research shows that having a mentor can significantly improve career advancement and satisfaction. Although similar to coaching, which Locations offers to all agents at no cost, mentorship is a deeper, long-lasting relationship that supports professional and personal growth.

In this week’s episode, hosts Kiki King and Bryan Balisacan sit down with two Hawaii real estate legends, Rod Mukai, Partner and Realtor® at Locations, and Chad Takesue, Chief Operating Officer at Locations, to learn how their mentor-mentee relationship has benefitted them both over the years.

For Rod, an agent with Locations since 1972, taking Chad under his wing 15 years ago came naturally—Locations has enjoyed a culture of shared learning since its founding. In that time, Chad has distinguished himself as an exceptional salesperson and risen to the ranks of Partner, COO and 2022 President of the Honolulu Board of Realtors®, and he’s sought Rod’s guidance along the way.

Whether you’re a mentor, mentee or looking to become one, you won’t want to miss this episode highlighting the value of this priceless relationship—for both parties.
