Hi, I’m Dr. Stephen Hobbs, a mentor and author
Today, I live in the spaces and places of agers (soloagers) 55+ years young…
I’ve written and published 18+ books about personal and workplace education approaches linked with managers and leaders, career professionals, volunteer managers, and group/team members - all seeking personal and professional tips, tools, and techniques.
Of the 12 education approaches available, my preference is facilitating and mentoring, while incorporating navigating.
[A new book about the 12 education approaches available soon.]
Let’s get personal:
Do you feel you are not making/may not make the impact you hoped for?
Are you facing obstacles in living your extraordinary life?
Do you feel challenged in creating a mentoring approach?
Are you on a quest to find your inner guide and mentor?
Mentoring NOW is an answer to these questions
The book is a way to move forward with “mentoring as legacy”
In order to organize a legacy project, olders require mentoring "
and/or hold the belief they can mentor and that mentoring itself is a legacy project.
Either way, the starting point is valuing and nurturing with mentoring.
The book–by its title–Path Way to Mentoring NOW: Mentor Within, Mentoring Without uses a “thread to strings to cord” metaphor, acknowledging a valuable way to organize a legacy project is by mentoring.
As you gain proficiency with mentoring, you develop your inner guide/mentor.
You learn about mentorship concepts, mentoring practices, and the self-concepts of being a mentor…
Then–you mentor what you love to mentor!
Why I wrote 'Pathway for Mentoring NOW:
So you could:
Learn to value and use your mentoring capabilities–whether new or seasoned, you have them
Acquire skills to mentor others effectively/relevantly in any professional or personal setting
Discover strategies and tactics for building–growing lasting relationships
Reflect on mentoring for self-discovery and awareness of being YOU, being fully human
Who have benefit from the concepts and practices in the book
Coaches - consultants - business owners have benefited from my mentoring approach.
Some have asked for presentations on concepts and practices for mentoring - covered in this book - to guide their organization of work projects and/or support their staff/volunteers.
University learners pursuing their graduate degrees have benefited from the Mentoring NOW concepts and practices.
Years later, workshop and course participants have written to thank me, sharing how the mentoring approach in the book helped//helps them.
The 3 by 3 matrix diagram that starts each chapter is a useful organizing tool for the book and serves as a visual memory reminder.
With the purchase of the PDF copy of the book, you have access to the 42 action outcome-outcome statements organized in 7 chapters with 6 statements per chapter.
Two types of checklists are available within the book to copy and use as desk reminders:
