Help: Being molded into an All Star General Manager!!!

Greetings I'm Akil and I'm going into my second year as a Real Estate Investor. I've truly been through the gambit in terms of the various challenges I've found ways to overcome, from stepping on old and rotted water lines during our initial demo process, leading to wasting an entire day managing a flood, all the way to having inspectors completely screw up deals by effing up the appraisal values! The point is this year has been a true roller coaster. 

Also I've found that I am most skilled off the court supervising as opposed to actually swinging the hammer, it's something I can do, it's just not the best use of my time. My question is how can I best add value to my mentor's business serving as general manager? What types of things should I be looking to take off his plate so that he has more time to focus on getting more deals in our pipeline?

Thanks in advance.
