Want to grow faster than 99% of the people you meet? Learn from everyone. In this episode of 10-Minute Masterclass, Trey Sheneman shares a game-changing mindset he picked up while working with leadership coach Brendon Burchard: be a "maverick with mentors." Trey breaks down how adopting a posture of humble curiosity and intentional generosity accelerates your growth, expands your influence, and keeps you grounded in any leadership season.

Key Takeaways

• Most people chase the perfect mentor—instead, become someone who learns from everyone.
• Trey’s leadership framework: Mavericks with Mentors.
  • Humble Curiosity – Ask more questions than you give answers.
  • Intentional Generosity – Mentor others, share what you’ve learned.
• Three ways to apply this mindset:
  • Value curiosity over certainty—junior team members have powerful insights.
  • Turn your ego off and your ears on—growth starts with listening.
  • Give to grow—teach what you’ve learned to reinforce your own mastery.
• The three types of mentorship: direct, indirect, and situational.
