The author of our bestselling Mentoring book has created a companion book for the individual being mentored. The mentor in the modern organizational setting is not the source of all knowledge. The mentee (person being mentored) is often a part of the information-age society we live in and is skilled and often well-educated and highlytrained. Shea sees this as an opportunity for both people to gain and an organization to build a group of people who believe strongly in a system of mentoring. Rich in detail on how to develop such a partnership, this book will be a unique source for the people seeking information on the best way to gain from being mentored. Tested in workshops and training programs this book comes with thousands of uses behind many of the checklists and worksheets it employs.
