A Year of Mentoring Minutes

In A Year of Mentoring Minutes, Kip Brailey does what most management books fail to do: give practical advice based on real-world examples he has garnered after forty years of managing people in one of the most stressful environments possible. Managers, new and old, will hugely profit from this often witty and always profound collection of lessons learned in the management trenches.

Kip Brailey worked at the Central Intelligence Agency, The State Department, The Office of the Director of National Intelligence, and the Department of the Treasury. Over half of his 32-year career was spent as a manager and senior manager. His units were instrumental in combatting terror finance, analyzing global energy and economics, and identifying money launderers. Brailey won numerous awards including a meritorious unit citation for his leadership during the global financial crisis. He views his most lasting contribution, however, to be the mentoring he did over his career.
