Description: Beyond Mentoring considers many aspects of mentoring, various programs, their successes, and failures. This book goes beyond the usual types of mentoring to look at newer models. What makes mentoring successful and coveted is having a one-on-one connection with someone in the institution, association, or field. There is more than the one way to do so, and newer research on learning models, and on how professionals learn opens those models up. Some models explored include peer coaching, informal models, and connecting professionally via social media. -- from back cover.
