Are you getting the best from talent within your organization? Have you fully realized the potential of your workforce at every level? Have you attempted a mentoring scheme in the past only to see it fall before it got off the ground?

In this age where people are the most important asset to any organization, fostering talent in the workplace has become critical. A well-planned and managed mentoring scheme can provide the support and opportunity needed for any person to learn, develop and ultimately work to his or her full potential.

David Clutterbuck, the leading authority on mentoring, provides detailed and practical advice on every stage of the process from matching mentors and mentees through to identifying when the mentoring relationship should come to an end. He addresses fundamental questions, including:

  • who benefits from mentoring?
  • how formal should the mentoring scheme be?
  • how are mentoring schemes developed and managed?
  • what are the key phases of the mentoring relationship?
  • what problems may be encountered in mentoring programs and relationships?
