Successful Coaching and Mentoring

Ken Lawson M.A., Ed.M.

This title explores the practices and values of these two different, but complementary, business strategies.  Coaching can be informal, but in many business settings, it is a formal part of a manager's training, either as an on-going, regular series of sessions, or as ad-hoc bought-in, specialist days.  Mentoring is likely more informal, as a way of senior managers giving of their time and expertise.  With case-study examples, this books shows the value to individuals and organizations of these two key relationships.
