The Art of Mentoring: Lead, Follow and Get Out of the Way book by Shirley Peddy

The Art of Mentoring is a universal guide to developing the talents of others. It teaches how to create learning partnerships in today's challenging work environments. This book covers some of the most contentious mentoring issues: helping the new employee learn the unspoken rules, improving interpersonal skills, dealing with job dissatisfaction, workaholism, cynicism, and lack of motivation which often comes at the end of a career. It also gives advice to the "mentee" on how to make the process work and avoid the pitfalls. As the New York Metropolitan News put it: "Anyone looking for advice or looking to advise another will find it an indispensible reference." The Art of Mentoring has found its way into corporations, government agencies, hospitals, and colleges, but individuals looking for success will also find it a "must have."
