Review
"Lindley offers a 'portable mentor' that fills the perennial need for tools that can bridge the gap between theory and practice." (Research Roundup, Winter 2003-2004 )
"The Portable Mentor contains a practical application of the Interstate School Leaders Licensure Consortium Standards, coaching information and instruction for the mentor, as well as the on-the-job realities of being a new school leader. We are using it as the training text for mentors in the Missouri Administrator Mentoring Program and as a guide for our new school leaders." (The Missouri Partnership for Mentoring School Leaders, the collaborative of representatives of higher education, the state department, professional organizations )
