In Journey to Mentoring you will discover timeless principles that can serve as a foundation for building a fulfilling life. There are nuggets of truth, helpful perspectives, and expanded thinking that I believe will open your eyes to more growth opportunities. But what really brings the message to life are the personal stories and examples from Greg’s own life experience.
I especially love the thirteen guideposts to mentoring. Each reveals a set of values which can keep you on course, empowering you to navigate your own life issues, but also will serve you well as you speak into other people’s lives and help them discover what matters most to them. Whether you are a businessperson, a minister, a coach of a sports team, or a leader in any other field, the concepts found in Journey to Mentoring can make a powerful difference for you. It is a quick read, but a book that you’ll go back to over and over again as you continue becoming the person you were designed to be. Mark Cole, CEO of Maxwell Leadership |
It has been said that mentorship is wisdom without the pain. The
truth is, too many people have graduated from the school of hard knocks. The “guideposts” of truth found within this book serve as a treasure chest of practical leadership principles that will help the reader navigate the waters of mentorship for many years to come! It is not only an honor to endorse this book, it is equally an honor to have it as a valued resource in our library! Jimmy and Melissa Patillo, Patillo Leadership Group Global Men’s Director for the Pentecostal Church of God __________________________________________________ Are you a pastor? Are you a life coach . . . a mentor? Are you a Sunday school teacher or youth worker? Are you considered to be an influencer? Are you a team leader at work? Have you started a business that requires more than just you to get the job done. Are you a parent or grandparent? May I suggest leadership is far more than buildings and budgets, even though they are essential. Leadership is more than just getting the job done. It is more than taking the hill. It also involves the development and even the survival of others you are taking on the journey. I love the following quote from the book, “mentoring mentors is like compounded interest in an investment. It grows and builds momentum.” As you effectively pour your life into others you are actually touching the generations that are yet to be born. Greg White and Paul Linzey do more than write on well-known principles. The personal illustrations from their real-life situations will resonate. As I read this book I was encouraged that I was doing some things very well AND I was encouraged by the possibility of improving that which I was not doing as well.
