This handbook provides an overview of how to mentor union members
or staff. It draws on literature on mentoring in unions and other settings
as well as interviews with ten individuals who have mentored or been
mentored in unions. The handbook is intended primarily for union leaders
and for those who want to develop union members and staff to keep
unions strong. Much of the information the handbook contains, however,
is applicable to any not-for-profit organization.
