The 29-year-old Deloitte senior consultant for strategy and operations was pitching a plan that might help Bunker secure funding for a program enabling veterans to become entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n<p>Ravinder developed the pitch, under Deloitte\u2019s pro bono program, with his mentor, Jonathan Copulsky, the company\u2019s chief marketing and chief content officer. The two meet regularly as part of a push to have senior managers train junior employees. Copulsky, who will retire in June 2017 when he reaches the company\u2019s mandatory retirement age of 62, has mentored several younger Deloitte executives. \u201cI was able to put this guy in a position, give him enough \u2018got your back,\u2019 but also give him the freedom that he could be successful and coach him as opposed to directing him,\u201d Copulsky says. <a href=\"http:\/\/mashable.com\/2016\/01\/22\/boomers-millennials-managers\/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&amp;utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial\">Read more&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>More about <a href=\"http:\/\/mashable.com\/category\/management\/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&amp;utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial\">Management<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/mashable.com\/category\/baby-boomers\/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&amp;utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial\">Baby Boomers<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/mashable.com\/category\/executives\/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&amp;utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial\">Executives<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/mashable.com\/category\/millennials\/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&amp;utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial\">Millennials<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/mashable.com\/business\/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&amp;utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial\">Business<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/Mashable\/~4\/ref3es67lBE\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vikram Ravinder was a little nervous as he faced the board members of Chicago nonprofit Bunker Labs in a conference room in early December.
