| Customer Reviews: Coach your employees to success January 10, 2008 Rolf Dobelli (Switzerland) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Everyone would agree that organizations are only as good as their employees. Still, many companies have not established a formal coaching and mentoring system to develop their most promising talent. Moreover, these companies do not capitalize on the vast knowledge and experience that veteran employees can pass down. Like the other useful books in the Harvard Business Essentials series, this volume is clearly written, easy to understand and brimming with practical advice. If your company already understands the value of coaching and mentoring, then you'll be covering familiar territory here. But if you're interested in learning the basics of a terrific business tool, we recommend this book as an excellent starting point.
Good Overview January 9, 2007 J. payne (Chicago, IL) 5 out of 8 found this review helpful
Overall, I enjoyed this book. It is well-organized so it makes for an easy read. Gives you some helpful information and a good overview of what is involved in mentoring and coaching. However, you will need other books for more detailed skill building.
