This revised edition will be a great addition to your professional library."--Roger M. Addison, director, human performance technology, International Society for Performance Improvement "The phenomenon of the use of mentoring in today's society is definitely at a juncture where it needs to be developed as a comprehensive discipline. Ms. Murray's Facilitated Mentoring Model provides the critical link for private and public sector mentoring."--Martin A. Jacks, founding president and director, The Mentoring Center, Oakland, California "A must read for the HRD practitioner interested in building a realistic approach to facilitated mentoring."--Kathy Wentworth Drahosz, president, The Training Connection, Inc.
