In order to intentionally grow X.C.C.L. participants,  a mentor team has been put into place. The mentor team is made up of two distinct members of the Executive Leadership Team. Together the participant and mentor will work on both professional and personal growth in three key ways. A candidate can expect to have weekly one-on-one meetings with mentors to study and gain a greater understanding of each respective area within the business. Both the X.C.C.L. mentors are well-rounded leaders and mentors as professional businessmen and leaders in their community.
