Mentoring has become an essential ingredient in the success of diversity management in the workplace and in achieving societal change to accommodate and value difference. This unique volume provides a landscape of how organizations around the world have applied mentoring principles to integrate minorities, to improve community relations and to harness the creative potential of different perspectives. It explores what makes mentoring work in a diversity context, and what undermines it; what constitutes good practice and what to avoid. Edited by three leading authorities in the field, it brings together a wealth of guidance and examples that will be invaluable both to mentoring programme organizers and to mentors and mentees at the sharp end. Countries represented in the book: Australia, Argentina, Canada, Denmark, Great Britain, Germany, Luxembourg, Norway, South Africa, and USA.
