Your boss can be one member of your mentoring team, but shouldn't be your only member. I’m not advocating that a boss should not be your mentor. As I’ve previously covered for Forbes there are strategic ways to approach people you don’t know. Ask your boss who else they think should be on your mentoring team. Your boss could and should be one person on your mentoring team, but nobody should have a mentoring team of one.
