2. Steve Jobs secret for eliciting questions, overheard at a cafe - Article revolves around a conversation between a mentor and a mentee (both being CEO's of their companies) and how to get real feedback from a bunch of people, if you are giving a presentation or leading a team.

This article re-emphasizes the need for mentors and how others have benefited from having mentors.
