This book is positioned to have a major impact on the field of mentoring and is sure to enhance the mentoring experience for mentors, protégés, and organizations alike."

"For the first time, Allen and colleagues have artfully presented a comprehensive, well integrated set of evidence-based recommendations for the design, delivery and evaluation of formal mentoring programs in organizational settings. This is a must read book for practitioners, who have been heretofore relying primarily on anecdotal evidence to help them create effective mentoring programs, often times with mixed success. The book also has strong appeal to academics because it provides a roadmap for cutting-edge, timely, and important research that can further reduce the science-to-practice gap related to organizational mentoring. The authors should be commended for their ability to take empirical research on formal mentoring programs and create a set of user-friendly guidelines and diagnostic tools to assist in the development of formal mentoring programs. This book is positioned to have a major impact on the field of mentoring and is sure to enhance the mentoring experience for mentors, protégés, and organizations alike."
–Lillian T. Eby, Professor of Psychology, University of Georgia
