Review

"An excellent resource for managers, human resource specialists, or anyone who is interested in pursuing a mentoring relationship for career growth."

"If Socrates had read this book he might still be with us today! He did just fine picking his proteageas, but his overall design did not meet `the perceived needs of the organization.' This book tells you how to do both (and a whole lot more)."

``Literally `soup to nuts' roadmaps of the facilitated mentoring process.''

From the Inside Flap

Shows how to develop and retain talented employees through the effective use of facilitated mentoring programs. Provides step-by-step guidelines for putting together a cost-effective program that fosters employee learning and growth, is personally rewarding for mentors, and contributes measurably to organizational performance.

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Beyond the Myths and Magic of Mentoring: How to Facilitate an Effective Mentoring Program (Jossey-Bass Management) (Hardcover)
While this book does not cover the intricacies of mentoring itself, it is a perfect reference for establishing and maintaining a mentoring program. The book walks through the essential elements of a program, repleat with tools and tips for acheiving success. I used this book as a blueprint for a well-received program.
