Coaching and Mentoring For Dummies (For Dummies Series)

I am currently teaching a mentoring course and I have found this book invaluable. Its easy to read format has given me many ideas, and has helped me to improve my performance at the same time. It is broken down into easy to read sections, and like all the dummies books is clearly laid out. It contains a wealth of information, but does not have to be read from start to finish, allowing you to start to learn more about coaching and mentoring at your point of need. I find myself dipping in and out of it, and I never fail to find another useful nugget to help me along the way. I am a fan of the dummies series and this one more than met my expectations

Purchased 2nd hand. Books looks used but in great condition otherwise. Came quickly, and like other for dummies books, its a good and informative book. I look forward to putting what I read and learn into action

Although I've not finished reading it yet...it's a great "go to" book! I've recently changed role and am now training to be a coach/mentor...this easy to read book is great for tips on what makes a good coach!!!!

The title of this book is technically correct, but unfortunately a bit misleading. I bought this book in search of guidelines and tips for mentoring a person I am not directly connected to. As it turns out, however, this is a book about applying mentoring and coaching techniques as a managerial skill, i.e. towards your own staff, quite a different scope from what I was in need of. Not being what I needed I have not studied the book in detail. It does, however, appear to deliver what it wants to, i.e. basic, sound and pretty well described advice on how to manage staff in a "modern" way to achieve sustainable performance. Being a "for dummies" book it may be a bit tedious at times, but it should be OK as a primer and basic reference.

recently did a coachiing award and used this along with other books. This is good for someone who wants basic common sense approach. as a manager made me think ofhow i and other managers can come across to staff ! only negative is paper quality on book flimsy - could easy tear,

Nice compact book, reading through and it's going to be helpful for my studies

I haven't finished the book yet, but I'm finding it quite clear and useful. Of course, I have no background in coaching so maybe this book is better aimed at newcomers.

Delivered really quick even with the current situation. Came exactly as described very pleased with this

Great ideas for employee motivation

Thank you

Très bon ouvrage, tout y est. Pas besoin d'acheter un autre livre de management, appliquez tout ce qu'il y a dans ce bouquin et vous serez au top !

It is a practical guide and mentoring approach to a newcomer in this field regardless you are at a management role or a new group leader

Books ok
