Recommendation

Mentoring and coaching expert Julie Starr calls her book a manual, and that’s exactly what you get: a guidebook chock-full of tables, charts, diagrams, exercises and steps. She also offers a slew of accompanying resources and tools on her website. Thorough and prescriptive, Starr leaves no prospective mentor with any doubt about what to do to build a good mentor–mentee relationship. Much of Starr’s advice might seem intuitive: listen carefully, build trust and don’t try to solve mentees’ problems for them, but it will surely get any new mentor off to a solid start.

Take-Aways

  • Mentors should guide mentees but shouldn’t take responsibility for their growth.
  • In practice, the mentor, coach and trainer roles sometimes blend, but they remain distinct.
  • For a strong mentor–mentee relationship, build equality, respect, accountability and collaboration.
