Mentoring with a Coaching Attitude: International Corporate Mentorship that Works - Sylviane Cannio - Bog

Mentoring is today where coaching was fifteen years ago. Increasingly companies have understood its usefulness, with the transfer of knowledge between generations of managers and the impact of leadership on a company's values. Yet very few people really know what modern mentoring is, as a learning alliance between an experienced leader and a less-experienced leader where each participant benefits from an open approach to learning. To create a successful environment for mentoring it is essential to improve the core competencies involved; active listening, impactful questioning, providing feedback and leading to experimentation and action.The book is intended to be both practical and theoretical so that it can be used in both academic and corporate settings. It is the result of a collaboration between mentors from four continents. Three editors - Sylviane Cannio (Belgium), Cicero Carvalho (Brazil/Canada) and Fisher Yu (China), together with fifteen leading mentoring professionals from across the globe make the book particularly interesting and unique.
