The Elements Of Mentoring

Patterned after Strunk and White's classic "The Elements of Style," this reference concisely summarizes the substantial existing research on the art and science of mentoring. "The Elements of Mentoring" reduces this wealth of published material on the topic to the fifty most important and pithy truths for supervisors in all fields. These explore what excellent mentors do, what makes an excellent mentor, how to set up a successful mentor-protege relationship, how to work through problems that develop between mentor and protege, what it means to mentor with integrity, and how to end the relationship when it has run its course. Succinct and comprehensive, this is a must-have for any mentor or mentor-to-be.
