Chapter 4 in Mentoring, 2004, pp 26-44 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This chapter examines what is meant by the term ‘mentoring’ and leads the reader through a number of definitions and approaches that can be taken when considering setting up or participating in a mentoring scheme. Different models of mentoring are explored, as well as the reasons why mentoring may be introduced in the first place. A number of different case studies illustrate the variety of types of scheme that the Henley Mentoring Focus Group has come across.
