' Personnel Today 'This book is a welcome addition to the literature on mentoring...a good read with plenty of challenging ideas' Business Adviser 'Mentoring is a complex skill and this book increases understanding of its complexity through many valuable diverse perspectives. Definitely one for your bookshelf.' Institute of Training and Occupational Learning 'The book's stated aim is to recognise that mentoring skills are situational - that mentors need to adjust their skills depending on the person with whom they are working and the stage they have reached in the reletionship - and to therefore provide a mix of the theoretcial and practical to ensure that programmes and relationships reach their potential. The book certainly achieves this aim and represents a rich resource for mentors, scheme managers and students of mentoring alike.'

Packed with good ideas and challenging concepts, those looking for a more comprehensive understanding of mentoring, and especially successful mentoring, will find it in these pages. ... I would encourage anyone considering being involved in any way with mentoring, no matter the situation, to pick up this book and read it cover to cover. It is, in my opinion, the best preparation they could possibly undertake.' Training ZONE 'Recommended as essential for BHJ &IM readers whether they see themselves as potential mentors or proteges in developing or sustaining their careers.
