Recommendation

Mentoring and leadership expert Lois J. Zachary presents a sensible approach to turning your mentoring relationship into career-enhancement gold. Zachary, writing with Lory A. Fischler, provides broad coverage, including preparing to be mentored, recruiting the right mentor, establishing the processes and goals of the mentoring relationship, setting a steady schedule, and wrapping up productively. Zachary describes how a mentee eventually can become a mentor and pass along the benefits of having career support from a senior executive.
