Mentors in Organizations
Abstract
This study examined mentoring relationships in organizations as experienced by protégés. The sample, 80 men and women in early career stages, provided data using questionnaires. Three-quarters of the group had one or more mentors. The findings were both supportive of some previous conclusions and contradictory to others. In general, the mentoring experience was a positive one for proteges. Implications for management development are offered. The presence of mentoring in organizations is also considered in relation to specific organizational outcome variables.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
