Who does not love to share information and expertise? Who does not feel pleased to see someone develop on the job as a result of their encouragement? What manager does not get excited about improved productivity? Workplace mentoring is an explicit one-to-one learning relationship between a person who wants to improve job or career skills and a person who can help him or her do that. When executives, managers and employees consistently share knowledge and skills, they create a high performance organization. This book is about building competitive advantage, one person at a time. Common Sense Workplace Mentoring draws together Susan's firsthand research and experiences with organizations that use mentoring as a key strategy. Some readers have said: "After reading Susan's recipe for successful mentoring, why wouldn't you incorporate it into your workplace?" "I'll never separate 'mentor' and 'boss' again." "This book will stay on my desk and I will use it continuously."

Book excerpt: “He may have an MBA, but he’s got no common sense.” Assessments like that by a boss can stop a career dead in its tracks. Unfortunately, many believe that common sense is a trait you are either born with or you are not. This book dispels that myth. Through the pages of Common Sense: Get It, Use It, and Teach It in the Workplace readers will learn not only what common sense is, but how to acquire it and use it to enhance their careers, increase their confidence, and take better advantage of business opportunities. Common Sense explores the use—and non-use—of common sense in the workplace and the world around us. It shows how you can become a person of great wisdom and good judgment by simply learning about all the ways people stumble in the thought process. Author Ken Tanner, a seasoned manager, consultant, and former regional vice president for two major U.S. restaurant chains, shows readers how to make better decisions, how to spot and avoid fallacious thinking, how to better assess ambiguous situations, and how to become a mature thinker with a knack for making the right move at just the right time. Best of all, Common Sense shows how to teach this trait to others, especially subordinates and co-workers who can and will do nonsensical things unless you help them learn to reason through their decisions and actions quickly and confidently. The payoff? Your staff will make you look good, greasing the way for greater responsibility and opportunity. This book: Takes you through an understanding of the term "common sense"—what it means and what it doesn’t mean. Shows how fallacies create barriers to using common sense. Provides dozens of examples of the application (as well as rejection) of common sense in the business world and elsewhere. Shows how to teach common sense to others.

Book excerpt: “Such a timely and forward-looking book, especially in the era of twin transition… I genuinely hope this book will serve as a resource for inspiration for all practitioners in every aspect of modern life.” Dr Riza Kadilar, EMCC Global President, Netherlands “This is an important book that provides clear, unambiguous guidance in a 'how to' structure which can assist any company that is committed to unlocking the hidden potential of its people.” Frank Nigriello, Director of Corporate Affairs, Unipart Group, UK Mentoring with a Coaching Attitude explores the intersection of mentoring and coaching to offer a new toolbox that team leaders, consultants and coaches can use in their own practice. Drawing on the long history of mentoring across the world, the experienced contributors highlight the foundations of mentoring within the importance of relationships and the transmission of knowledge between humans for success.

Including work from Belgium, France, Morocco, China, UK, the Middle East, Brazil and Poland and in a diversity of organisations from NGOs like Médecins sans Frontières to universities and multinational companies. The case studies clearly outline how the core potential of a client or mentee can be harnessed with: •active listening •impactful questioning •creating awareness and leading to experimentation and action The book is ideal for leaders and business owners who would like to organize mentoring programmes that work and be confident that knowledge and experience is being shared between senior leaders and more junior colleagues.

Book excerpt: Mentorship is a catalyst capable of unleashing one's potential for discovery, curiosity, and participation in STEMM and subsequently improving the training environment in which that STEMM potential is fostered. Mentoring relationships provide developmental spaces in which students' STEMM skills are honed and pathways into STEMM fields can be discovered. Because mentorship can be so influential in shaping the future STEMM workforce, its occurrence should not be left to chance or idiosyncratic implementation. There is a gap between what we know about effective mentoring and how it is practiced in higher education. The Science of Effective Mentorship in STEMM studies mentoring programs and practices at the undergraduate and graduate levels. It explores the importance of mentorship, the science of mentoring relationships, mentorship of underrepresented students in STEMM, mentorship structures and behaviors, and institutional cultures that support mentorship. This report and its complementary interactive guide present insights on effective programs and practices that can be adopted and adapted by institutions, departments, and individual faculty members.

Book excerpt: THE STORY OF THE LITTLE WHITE BOOKAs a young business owner responsible for a growing team of employees serving some of the world's most successful companies, Bill Arnold saw the need to provide life training for his employees to grow his company's already sizable profits. Long before the likes of Google and Microsoft, the innovative Bill Arnold recognized a sure way to business success was to invest in his own employees. Bill hired a team including a licensed psychologist to work with him to develop life-training skills to compliment his human resources training models for his business. In one year's time Bill saw his business profits soar and he and his team condensed their in-house training seminars into a booklet for company use. This booklet became the little white book, Common Sense Success. WHAT IT'S ABOUTBasketball legend Michael Jordan said it best: "You have to monitor your fundamentals constantly because the only thing that changes will be your attention to them. The fundamentals will never change." That's what Common Sense Success is about, maintaining attention to the fundamentals. Bill condenses more than 30 years of corporate and personal mentoring into five easy to read sections guiding you in the development of fundamental habits necessary for your success. From the need for personal dedication to the problems of bad belief, and from the power of self-control and people skills to the need for visionary courage, Common Sense Success is good for business on Wall Street and life on Main Street .

Book excerpt: This book explores teacher workplace learning from four different perspectives: social policy, international comparators, multi-professional stances/perspectives and socio-cultural theory. First, it considers the policy and practice context of professional learning in teacher education in England, and the rest of the UK, with particular reference to professional masters level provision. The importance of teachers’ and schools’ perceptions of improvement, development and learning, and the inherent tensions between individual, school and government priorities is explored. Second, the book considers models of teacher workplace learning to be found in international research and practice to explore what perspective they can bring to understanding policy and practice relating to workplace learning in the UK. Third, it draws on cross-professional analysis to get an intellectual and theoretical purchase on workplace learning by examining how insights from across the professions can provide us with useful perspectives on policy and practice. The analysis draws particularly on insights from medicine and educational psychology. Fourth, the book cross-fertilises research and practice across the field of education by drawing on insights from perspectives such as socio-cultural and activity theory and situated learning/cognition to discover what they can offer in analysing the theoretical and pedagogic underpinnings of teacher workplace learning. In short, the book offers a number of contexts for exploring how best to conceptualise and theorise learning in the workplace in order to generate evidence to inform policy and practice and facilitates the development of a more theoretically informed and robust model of workplace learning and teaching.
