问题     The role of manager is another critical component in the development of an office-systems career. One study reported that in 76 percent of the organizations surveyed supervisors were involved in career development. Because of daily contact with employees and personal contact with other managers, the manager can assist office-systems employees in their career development in many ways. Managers can delegate their subordinates’ assignments which promote growth. In addition, managers can provide realistic assessments of their subordinates’ career potential. Such feedback can take the form of coaching employees to strengthen any personal or professional weaknesses.
    Some managers might become mentors to their subordinates, thus improving their chances for career success. A mentor usually is a superior or experienced peer within the employee’s organization. The mentor assumes a professional interest in another’s career and acts in an advisory capacity to that individual. Generally a mentor arranges for the employee to meet the "right people" and to make the "right moves," thus helping the employee to acquire recognition of and acceptance by the managerial network. However, even when managers show an interest in their subordinates’ careers, problems can occur.
     Some managers might lack sufficient power within their organizations to be successful mentors or might be reluctant to become a mentor for an aspiring (有抱负的) female employee because of the possibility of office gossip. Other managers might resist the mentor role because managers may not be rewarded by their organizations for engaging in career development activities for their subordinates.
    Other dilemmas for both manager and subordinate could arise when the career development process is linked to the manager’s task of performance appraisal. The career development process is not as effective when it is tied to employee assessment for job promotions and salary increases.
    Most employees would be reluctant to risk revealing any career inadequacies or doubts to their evaluators. Therefore, employees should take charge of their own career development.
What are the possible reasons that some managers do not want to be mentors to their subordinates?
