Thousands of people have become better mentors using the four-step formula for leading mentoring conversations in this book. The process is not complicated, completely flexible and versatile in any type of mentoring situation. You’ll never have to worry about what to say or do again.
This book is for you if you are in a mentoring program or a person who mentors others informally. Perhaps you are a manager or leader and recognise that mentoring is now part of your role. Maybe people come to you for guidance or advice at work or in the community. You know mentoring is vital and feel a responsibility to do it well.
Drawn from thirty-plus years’ experience training mentors and mentees Advance Mentoring Skills complements the information in my previous books: Mentoring Mindset, Skills and Tools and The Mentor’s Toolkit for Career Conversations.
In this book, I’ll share what only previously available in my Mentor Master Classes - techniques and tips that even seasoned mentors benefit from. Attendees came from fields as diverse as education and engineering, health and hospitality, construction, and communication. They have been professionals, managers, executives, and front-line staff.
Although I frame this book for workplace mentoring, you’ll be able to apply it to your mentoring in the community and perhaps even your family and friends!
