New managers should welcome coaching – Mentors crucial to career success

Ed Linares may never be invited to speak at management conferences or be written up in Fortune magazine. But he is the boss who Dominick Miserandino says taught him how to manage himself, others and his business — in that order.

The two men worked together nine years ago at Credit Suisse in Manhattan when Miserandino was in a back-office, trader-support role. Now executive editor of TheCelebrityCafe.com, the Long Island-based online celebrity magazine he founded, Miserandino says he invokes his mentor’s philosophy so often that his staff refers to it as "The Book of Ed."

At countless junctures during a week, Miserandino, 32, says he’ll stop and ask, "What would Ed do?" And when he calls Linares for advice on such issues as employee problems, he sometimes gets a dose of reality: "They’re stupid like you were once stupid."
