Publisher's summary

The best-selling coauthor of the legendary The One Minute Manager® and a former Twitter executive join forces to create the ultimate guide to creating powerful mentoring relationships.

While most people agree that having a mentor is a good thing, they don't know how to find one or use one. And despite widespread approval of the idea of being a mentor, most people don't think they have the time or skills to do so.

Positive mentoring relationships can change the way we lead and help us succeed. In One Minute Mentoring, legendary management guru Ken Blanchard and Claire Diaz-Ortiz, a former Twitter executive and early employee, combine their knowledge to provide a systematic approach to intergenerational mentoring, giving listeners great insight into the power and influence of mentoring and encouraging them to pursue their own mentoring relationships.

Using his classic parable format, Blanchard explains why developing effective communication and relationships across generations can be a tremendous opportunity for companies and individuals alike. One Minute Mentoring is the go-to source for learning why mentoring is the secret ingredient to professional and personal success.

I have been a mentor and a mentee

And this is the simplest way to be efficient with the process….all without over-complicating it, and or making it too formal.

Gained several valuable insights. I will be looking to apply them both as a mentor and mentee.

Too slow, not a lot of value

As a fictitious story, there’s a lot of bluff about the two characters that doesn’t really add any value or strategy. I’m a big fan of Ken B. But this one really disappointed me 😕

Good points but very dragged out

the 5 min audio track of the MENTOR is a summary of the book. I did learn on how to improve the mentoring relationship and I'm knocking off one star from the review just because the story is very long and dragged out.
