The "Must Have" Book On Mentoring

If you can afford just one book on mentoring this is the one to buy. Kathleen Barton shows her readers how to build a powerful and lasting mentoring network to move their careers forward. I particularly appreciate the practical aspects of "Connecting With Success." For example, the section on Finding Mentors & Networking Contacts shows what to look for in a potential mentor, via a mentor assessment worksheet. In addition it provides some suggested organizations one can get involved in to connect with potential mentors, clients, or employers. Other chapters provide similar helpful tools to greatly assist the reader in the networking process. As a lifelong networker and mentor I enthusiastically supportthe principles shared in this outstanding book. I highly recommend "Connecting With Success" to anyone desiring to make mentoring and networking an integral part of their lives!
