WHEN MENTORING MEETS COACHING:
SHIFTING THE STANCE IN EDUCATION
Mentoring is often viewed as an effective approach to minimize the isolation that leaders experience, whether they are new to a position or dealing with new initiatives. Similarly, coaching is seen as an effective means to help people build personal and organizational capacity.

What if a formal mentoring program was enhanced by the introduction of professional coaching skills? Authors Kate Sharpe and Jeanie Nishimura have done precisely that. Training thousands of mentor-coaches, the authors begin this resource with an overview of mentoring and coaching fields of practice and how they can be combined to create a powerful approach. The authors’ mentor-coaching model guides readers on how to build capacity in others—from examining critical elements of a mentor-coaching relationship through learning to listen to (not through), asking powerful questions, and navigating sensitive conversations. A must-read for aspiring and new mentor-coaches.
A full professional service based on this book is also available through our 4-Day Interactive Mentor-Coaching Program as well as our Foundational Coaching Skills sessions.
“Through mentoring, mentees venture forth on their leadership journey, uncovering strengths, becoming true to values, embracing courage, and, with confidence, anticipating moments to unfold. As a mentor-coach, I have enjoyed authentic conversations with mentees, and have been inspired by their creativity, resourcefulness and wisdom.”
