商品簡介
Mentoring was once a rather informal operation, with mentors and their charges happening upon each other more or less by accident. Now it has become a formal part of modern management development, with human resources largely running formal programs. In this edition, which has been updated to reflect current practice, the editors (all of whom hail from the human resource development or mentoring and coaching departments of Sheffield Hallam U.) and their contributors present information on the development of a mentoring framework and culture, including how mentoring relationships evolve and the ethics of mentoring, along with 18 organization cases (including e-mentoring and mentoring support for survivors of domestic abuse) and nine case studies (including very long term mentoring, mentoring start-up entrepreneurs, and male-female mentoring. The collection closes with lessons learned and the possibilities for the future of mentoring. Distributed in the US by Ingram Publisher Services.
