How should young coaches effectively reach out to established coaches to find mentors?

Young coaches should reach out to successful people, build a relationship with them, and eventually ask them to be a mentor. They must be willing to listen and take feedback and criticism in order to succeed.
 
Transcript: "I think young coaches should just reach out to the people that they think or believe have been successful, and try to ask them questions, and try to develop a relationship with them. And then eventually, ask that person to be your mentor, and see what they say. But keep in mind, you have to be willing to listen. You have to be willing to take positive feedback and criticism. And you can go a long way. I think a mentor is absolutely necessary if you want to reach the top of your career or the top of your profession in your sport."
