Praise for Mentorship Mastery

"Our society desperately needs virtuous leaders, and they don't just happen by accident. They are shaped and molded, both through experience and by deliberate mentorship. This powerful leadership book contains the thoughtful writings of proven virtuous leaders who have both been mentored and who provide mentorship. It is a must-read for leaders who strive for lasting impact, one relationship at a time."— John "Dragon" Teichert, USAF brigadier general (ret.)

"In your hands is the blueprint for how mentoring can transform the world. Whether you're a manager, a colleague, a parent, or a friend, Mentorship Mastery shows you how to holistically help the people and organizations that are under your care. Best, these insights come from the women and men who've learned to walk the talk of virtuous leaders, who understand what works and why." — Thomas LeBien, founding partner, Moon & Company

"A fantastic resource for both new and experienced mentors. This is a well-conceived combination of powerful vignettes and recipes for successful mentorships. A wide range of contributing authors reflect the breadth and depth of the current workforce, and their input highlights flexibility and improvisation in mentoring styles. A must-read for both those contemplating mentorship as well as those with experience in this symbiotic field." — Bret Pasiuk, MD, FASN, chief of the medical staff, St. Agnes Hospital
