You give and give of yourself constantly to help others be all that they can be. But what do you do when problems arise? How do you handle it when your mentee doesn\u2019t listen? How do you learn to excel at being a mentor? Are there any mentor books that can help you along your journey?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mentor books cover a whole range of topics, from how to better yourself, to how to read your mentee, to step by step guides to getting it right. Here are the top 5 books for today that can help ensure you excel as a mentor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Mentor Like Jesus by Regi Campbell<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It may bear the name of Jesus Christ but that doesn\u2019t mean the book is religious. Jesus is known, even today, as the greatest teacher that ever lived. So, he is the greatest mentor you could ever hope to learn from. This book points out how Jesus taught 11 disciples so effectively that 2 billion people follow in those lessons today. That is effective mentoring! By examining the way, the Great Teacher taught, the book looks at how we can apply his methods in today\u2019s world of mentoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regi Campbell is behind the founding of 15 companies and hosts 19 mentoring groups helping over 150 people. It is through the way that Jesus taught that he has found his teaching methods, and it is through this book that he shares his teaching tools with us. With many reviews available from all kinds of people we can see how this book has opened eyes to a new method of teaching, one reader commented:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I have never looked at mentoring this way, and after reading this, I really don&#8217;t know why not. This book is very thought-provoking, and extremely well written.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This book of 157 pages covers mentoring topics like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The value of patience and listening.<\/li><li>Using illustrations to teach.<\/li><li>Giving meaningful investment to your mentee.<\/li><li>Teaching tools of Jesus and how we can use them in <em>next-generation mentoring.<\/em><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;More time with fewer people equals greater impact.&#8221;<\/p><p><em>Mentor Like Jesus<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"304\" src=\"https:\/\/careernavig8r.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/91UKZJah5rL-e1628779237781.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-144\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. What Every Body is Saying by Joe Navarro<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This book may not be directly teaching you mentor skills but what it is teaching is still worth a lot in the world of mentors and mentees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>What Every Body is Saying<\/em> is written by a former FBI agent. Because of this, the book is littered with real-life examples of how body language helped him catch criminals or know when a suspect was innocent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By taking an in-depth look at body language and explaining what all the little, subconscious, motions mean, Joe Is showing us how we can build relationships. How to speed-read people. How your body language can influence others. What feet positions mean. What do the little motions of the eyes or fingers mean?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The knowledge that this book gives is so thorough one reader reported:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em>&#8220;I&#8217;ve read a couple of books on this subject and I really should have just read this one!&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>How is that going to help you as a mentor?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Several ways.

That is what makes the steps covered in this book vital to excelling as a mentor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After reading this book, one mentor praised it with the following statement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em>&#8220;I\u2019ve become one of the top mentors in my company all without realizing that I was creating real value for my mentee.

She realized that no one book answered all of her questions, so she wrote the book that she needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means that <em>The Mentoring Manual <\/em>is her complete guide to mentoring. It includes all of the skills and teaching points she needs to help her mentees succeed. And it works!
