He’ll ask permission to challenge you to see things differently, to diagnose your areas of strength and weakness, to assign you challenges and readings and experiences. Once you’ve set your goals, Will will help you monitor your progress and stay true to your hopes and aspirations. If you want, he’ll look at your work products and give feedback, he’ll analyze your designs, he’ll read your writing. Every step of the way, Will will support you in your efforts to develop yourself.
