The Role of Mentoring Support and Self-Management Strategies on Reported Career Outcomes.

Murphy, Susan E.; Ensher, Ellen A.

Journal of Career Development, v27 n4 p229-46 Sum 2001

Those who used behavioral self-management strategies had greater perceived success. In some respects, self-management may offset ineffective or absent mentoring functions. (Contains 47 references.)
