Coaching and mentoring help staff to learn through the use of guidance and example. It is a quite different approach to "standard" managerial/supervisory approaches and requires a different set of skills in the coach/mentor. Suitable for use in all types of organisation, this book is very practical and accessible and will help any manager to develop those appropriate skills. The book builds confidence with the help of simple checklists and examples but does not forget the underlying and underpinning theory. A useful device is that each chapter concludes with a "how-to" section to help readers to check their progress.
