Reviews / Votes
Thorough and well-reasoned, this book presents a clear concept of mentoring from cover to cover. Anyone who reads this work will walk away knowing why mentoring should occur, what it can do for them, and how it can help address complicated contemporary problems. A must-read by all standards! -- Nora Dominguez This seminal guide to contemporary coaching and mentoring practice goes from strength to strength with this important update, where the authors bring all of their collective wit and wisdom to bear on the delights, dramas and dilemmas that the growth of C&M professional practice brings. This volume demands a re-read for those who immersed themselves in its insights first time around: and would be recommended without reservation to those new to the field. -- Dr Daniel Doherty This book is essential for mentoring practitioners and scholars. New chapters on ethics and power along with interactive case studies and activities make this a must-have book. A pleasure to read with valuable resources I will use right away. -- Laura Gail Lunsford My dear friends' obsession with coaching and mentoring infuses this great updated version of a book that is fast becoming a classic in coaching and mentoring literature. The new structure maintains a pragmatic undertone and pulls together the threads of research, theory and practice in a user-friendly way. In a complex and confusing world, this really is a book to expand the minds and hearts of all students, practitioners or fellow academics to the compelling delights of coaching and mentoring. -- Lis MerrickMore details
