As an author on mentoring

Kathy Lacey's book is a practical guide that should be read by any organization considering a mentoring initiative. I highly recommend it to any organization considering a mentoring initiative. The orientation program she presents is user-friendly and right on the mark. There are no vague concepts in this book. Lacey provides practical checklists and worksheets that can be adopted with few changes. From one author to another--bravo!

Who hasn't had a mentor in life - Why not in business too?

Mentoring relationships in the adult business world makes good "business" sense! Not to mention the benefits that are derived by the employee through the mentoring relationship. Mentoring is not a new concept when adults look at the need for youth to have adult role models, so this next step in mentoring makes adults in business sit-up and take notice. Recently I became aware of adult business mentors charging enormous fees as life mentors for other adults. Giving other adults "permission" so to speak to take those risks in life that lead to life changes and increased satisfaction. As an author myself in the area of mentoring young adults, I find this a great read and one that offers a private or public agency a new road to travel. Why spend those enormous amounts of money on consultants when the information and talent is right there in your own pool of employees! This book shows you how to set up your own In-house mentoring program. Use your dollars wisely folks and get this book! Start making use of your in-house talents.

Mentor to Teach, Equip and Impart

An excellent book that describes distinctly the importance of effective mentoring. This book teaches expressly how to be the transformational mentor, who understand the inner needs of the person and teaches how to reach out to that person and build their lives effectively.
