Dr. Bob Acton's new book Bill's Wisdom: Gaining Leadership Value through Mentoring, written in a story format, describes some of the experiences of Bill Cunningham, a man who mentors young leaders about various aspects of leadership including managing one's own emotions, influencing others, engaging employees, conflict, and understanding employees. This very accessible book is an easy read but produces numerous insights into common workplace interactions. The book focuses on four leaders, both women and men, who struggle with some aspect of leading others in the workplace. Each of the characters in the story describes their struggle to an experienced leader who becomes their mentor. Throughout their work with Bill, their mentor, each of the leaders gains insight into how they can manage the issues facing them and turns around the situation with practical, easy steps. As a result, each person takes a dramatic leap in their professional and personal leadership behaviour and experiences success through the mentoring experience. The reader will gain an understanding of leadership behaviour and the process of mentoring.
