The Mentoring Pocketbook
- now in its third edition
- shows how to design & manage a mentoring scheme how to prepare to be a mentor how to conduct mentoring sessions how to maintain the relationship through the different stages & how to evaluate mentoring. Before looking at the actual mentoring process the authors deal with the uses of mentoring within organisations (particularly in the context of managing change & mission/value statements) & explain how mentoring differs from coaching training & appraisals. The process of mentoring is explained with the aid of a 3-stage model. This can be used to assess yourself as a mentor as a map to guide you through the process as a review tool & as a means to develop the mentee's ability to use the model independently. Subsequent chapters explore the mentor-mentee relationship & address key issues & questions. Although primarily aimed at the mentor The Mentoring Pocketbook is also helpful to mentees. A consistently best-selling title within the Management Pocketbooks Series!
