Monica Gordon Pershey, Ed.D., CCC-SLP, Associate Professor and Speech and Hearing Program Director, Cleveland State University, (September 2010): "Science of Successful Supervision and Mentorship reads as if a seasoned professional has opened up her heart to share her wisdom with others. The author's enthusiasm and empathy are palpable. Recounts of interviews with professionals in the field are beautiful in their first-person intimacy. Engaging clinical scenarios from the author's own experience personalize the writing and acknowledge cultural diversity. Dr. Carozza has consulted the literature of other relevant disciplines, such as psychology of the self, to give dimension to two unique constructs, supervision and mentoring. A summary of the varied foundational literature supports the author's description of models of supervision and mentoring. An inventory of competencies and strategies is provided. This book will be useful to professionals new to supervision or mentoring as well as to seasoned supervisors, mentors, and clinical educators looking to expand their repertoire of evidence-based strategies for success." Melanie Hudson, National Director, EBS Healthcare, (October 2010): "Dr. Linda Carozza's Science of Successful Supervision and Mentorship offers the clinician a new and updated look at supervision and mentoring. Practitioners with experience and those new to their roles as supervisors and mentors will benefit from the overview of history in supervision research and current trends in models of supervision included in this book. The author provides an in-depth discussion of the differences between mentoring and supervision, reflective practice (self supervision), multi-cultural issues, professional ethics, and the need for evidence-based practice with application to supervision. By providing case studies and reflective exercises, the reader is able to fully explore competencies and strategies for effective supervision and mentoring in any clinical setting. Throughout her book, Dr. Carozza provides the reader with excellent references, citing the works of key contributors to the area of supervision. Science of Successful Supervision and Mentorship should be a primary resource for anyone engaged in this most important aspect of the profession.

It is clear, comprehensible, and broken into easily digestible segments."
