Selected Aspects of Mentoring: Advice, Challenges, and Approaches

The publication captures the concept and application of mentoring as an age-old method of training and learning that has existed in all societies throughout recorded history and continues to impact virtually everyone across their life span. Moreover, it illuminates how mentoring has been indelibly institutionalized, embedded, wrapped and weaved, and advanced throughout our past and contemporary history and culture.
Selected Aspects of Mentoring: Advice, Challenges, and Approaches:

• As experience best measures knowledge, not necessarily by years, the authors contend that time alone does not make individuals more knowledgeable, but learning does. Therefore, mentoring is a learning vehicle for personal development for the mentor, mentee, as well as their respective organization's development.
• The book examines the mentoring relationship and experience across a spectrum of organizations. It may provide a type of ""stimulus package"" for engaging in the mentoring process on a higher level, improving the mentoring processes across the organization or discipline, and facilitate progressive, positive outcomes.
• The authors offer a timely, diverse, and thought-provoking book to assist mentors and mentees in the world of work or any organization administration, education, training, research, non-profit, corporation, youth programs, military, sports to understand the dynamics, application, and benefits of mentoring. The authors also advocate for the transformational benefits attributable to the dyadic relationship between mentors and those being mentored.
• It offers provocative paradigms about the utility of mentoring and mentoring programs as well as timeless, inspiring quotes and insightful anecdotes and experience of the dynamic process.
• The book encourages sharing the advantages of mentoring tools and methods that effect trajectories toward more positive outcomes across diverse groups.
