NYRblog - Girls! Girls! Girls! - The New York Review of Books
This piece by Tony Judt is interesting just as memoir. But it also raises the question whether our hyper-sensitive education and work environment has made mentoring more difficult. I often feel like I keep younger colleagues at greater arms length than my mentors did. This avoids the risk of being misunderstood, but my mentors knew a lot more about me as a person than I will ever learn about the younger people I coach. Knowing more about me as a person enbale them to give better advice.
