  Effective mentoring is no longer a teacher-learner relationship but has become a collaborative learning experience based on connection and mutual influence. By transforming themselves into learning leaders, managerial mentors can serve as stabilizing forces in times of chaotic change, offering a fresh sense of shared purpose and direction for the organization and an unparalleled learning opportunity for the individual. Stories from such diverse industries as insurance, banking, health care, and manufacturing illustrate how learning leaders are helping their organizations develop workplace environments that are rooted in diversity and opportunity, and positioned for growth and prosperity. With state-of-the-art assessment tools, case studies, and practical examples of mentoring in action, The New Managerial Mentor shows how to master the twelve key competencies of the new learning leader and balance the conflicting roles of Collaborator, Innovator, Producer, and Integrator to achieve success as a managerial mentor. For anyone committed to lifelong learning and self renewal, The New Managerial Mentor charts a course between leading and learning that focuses on both the lessons of the past and the limitless possibilities of the future.
