S3E7: Power Mentoring by Ellen Ensher & Susan Murphy
Power Mentoring: How Successful Mentors and Protégés Get the Most Out of Their Relationships by Ellen Ensher and Susan Murphy (2005)
This is the book we are discussing, and the ins and outs of power mentoring. The two biggest things that distinguish power mentoring from traditional mentoring is 1) reciprocity and 2) the networking approach. In the power mentoring construct, we can have as many mentors as we have needs or opportunities to grow.
The book outlines 10 types of power mentoring. This makes room for broadening our network and our perspective on our growth paths. Think of how much we can gain by seeking out the expertise of others to help us grow, and at the same time practice presenting our abilities to help a mentor. I wish I'd known about power mentoring during the days I worked in corporate. I hope you discern the value in the power mentoring model and make use of it in your varied contexts. Let us know if you do and how it works out!
