Perfect for you if...

  • You're a manager who knows your people have potential but aren't sure how to unlock it beyond annual reviews and task delegation.
  • You've had a great mentor yourself and want to pay that forward but don't know where to start with the practical mechanics.
  • You're leading remote or hybrid teams and need to build real relationships and growth opportunities without being in the same room.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You're looking for a quick productivity hack or a way to squeeze more work out of your team without investing in them.
  • You prefer theory and research papers to real-world examples and actionable frameworks you can use Monday morning.
  • You believe mentoring is something HR should handle, not something that sits at the heart of what a good manager does.

About this book

This third edition of Managers as Mentors guides leaders in helping their associates develop within modern organizations. Thoroughly revised with twelve new chapters, the book emphasizes the mentor's role as a learning catalyst who works alongside the protégé rather than simply transferring knowledge. The book includes a fictional case study of a mentor-protégé relationship that runs throughout, now supplemented with interviews from six top US CE Os. New chapters address mentoring's role in driving innovation and mentoring a diverse, geographically dispersed workforce that relies on digital interaction. The edition also introduces the Mentor's Toolkit, a set of six resources designed to support the development of mentor-protégé relationships. This practical guide teaches leaders to become confident coaches who support learning organizations.
