✦ Synopsis

Definitions of the terms “coaching” and “mentoring” tend to be ambiguous and are often confusing for clients who need to assess the benefits of these activities. Facilitating Reflective Learning Through Mentoring and Coaching provides clarity by offering a theoretical framework presenting coaching and mentoring models together with examples of how they can be applied in practice. Robust theory is backed up by practical exercises, case studies, training workshop templates, learning partner handouts and tools for selecting prospective mentors. Important guidance is also given on sensitive areas such as the boundary between mentoring or coaching and therapy, and the need for codes of practice.
