What Do Readers Think about Mentoring the Stars?

From the Foreword by Glenn Tecker, President and CEO, Tecker Consultants LLC
Mentoring the Stars presents an original collection of intelligence. It carefully blends the best research available about the unique character of non-profit voluntary enterprise with the proof of actual experience.
"Mentoring the Stars is a comprehensive, well-written document that encompasses a variety of leadership strategies in a most understandable format. The tool serves as a guide that can be used throughout one's entire term as a board member."
Kathleen A. Singleton
President, Academy of Medical-Surgical Nurses
"Mentoring the Stars has been invaluable in getting our new board members up to speed on key concepts. By pairing the new member with a mentor, the ground work has also been established for an excellent working relationship."
Dottie Roberts
Executive Director, Orthopaedic Nurses Certification Board
"This was life changing and is useful in everyday life and day-to-day work experiences. The information is so applicable to all kinds of life experiences. I still use it today and I am no longer on the board."
Regina Conway-Phillips
Nurse Navigator, American Cancer Society
"Mentoring the Stars played an important role in my board development. It was also a wonderful resource for my service on a local community board."
Charlene Williams
Past President, American Academy of Ambulatory Care Nursing
