HI!
One of our long-time members, Terri Scandura, was asked by AOM to complete
an interview for a podcast on mentoring which can be accessed at:
http://faculty.washington.edu/mdj3/unmpodcast/TerriScandura_20080318_mj.mp3
.
I think not only will you find it interesting, but it will be of interest
to your students.
To give you an idea of the podcast content, here is the list of questions
Terri addressed:
1. What is mentoring?
2. How common are mentoring relationships in organizations?
3. How is mentoring related to leadership?
4. What effects does mentoring have on employees?
5. Does mentoring benefit the mentor as well, or just the mentee?
6. How does mentoring differ across genders?
7. What happens when someone has multiple mentors?
8. What happens in bad mentoring relationships (dysfunctional mentoring)?
9. How has technology affected the mentoring relationship?
