The effects of mentoring on academic careers over time: Testing performance and political perspectives (2005, background): “In a study of business start-ups, for example, Waters et al. (2002) found mentors’ and protégés’ perceptions following mentoring to be poor indicators of actual performance.”
The role of mentoring in the learning development of the novice entrepreneur (2012, background): “Other research confirms the significance of these support elements with regards to business management (Bisk 2002; Cull 2006; Kent et al. 2003), psychological support (Nandram 2003; Waters et al. 2002 ), or both (Gravells 2006 ;M iettinen2003; Wikholm et al. 2005).”
Coaching the Entrepreneur: Features and Success Factors (2012, background): “Lastly, some researchers have suggested a link between the frequency of meetings between the coach (mentor) and protégé, and the protégé’s perception of the value of the support received (Smallbone et al., 1998; Waters et al., 2002).”
Mentor and protégé predictors and outcomes of mentoring in a formal mentoring program (2006, result): “Consistent with the few studies that have examined mentor/protege dyads, our Wndings suggest there is not a strong correlation between reports of mentoring from mentors and proteges (Armstrong, Allinson, & Hayes, 2002; Raabe & Beehr, 2003; Waters, McCabe, Kiellerup, & Kiellerup, 2002 ).”
MENTORING RESEARCH: A REVIEW AND DYNAMIC PROCESS MODEL (2003, background): “(2000), along with studies suggesting more frequent meetings are associated with more mentoring (Burke et al., 1993; Mullen, 1998; Waters et al., 2002), are supportive of setting frequency of meeting guidelines.”
Tax compliance of small business owners (2012, background): “Empirical evidence suggests that focusing on nascent entrepreneurs and supporting them at an early stage is indeed promising (Waters et al., 2002).”
Cultural Differences and Similarities in Seeking Social Support as a Response to Academic Failure: A Comparison of American and Chinese College Students (2006, background): “Indeed, individuals who are anxious about their ability to succeed show a pronounced need for psychosocial support from their mentoring relationships (Waters et al., 2002).”
