Praise for THE MENTORSHIP EDGE
"There are angels amongst us, and in this day and age of huge challenges, massive evils and injustices left and right, our angels need much more than wings. They must be entrepreneurs who never give up, mentors who pull up generations after them, resilient leaders by example who fix our brokenness and give opportunity to young adults where there was none. None such more impactful, important and impressive than Dr. Heiser. In the end, we can best measure our lives by those we helped. Debbie has saved thousands of lives, enabling them and encouraging them to thrive. I tip my hat. She is my hero!"
-PETER SAMUELSON, Entrepreneur, Philanthropist, Executive, Author, Film Producer
"I had the good fortune to be introduced to an amazing lady four years ago who reintroduced me to the importance of mentorship, what mentorship really is, and the many layers involved. I have been truly blessed to have had some of the greatest research hierarchical mentors while learning the craft at NASA, what I did not realize was that my Friends-of-Charlie (FoC) network was a lateral mentor community that would later save my life on orbit during my Space Shuttle Mission STS-114. Dr. Deborah Heiser understands mentorship in all its aspects and realizes its importance in helping us live happy, full, and rewarding lives. Her gift at storytelling and her easy writing style make this knowledge transfer such a joyful experience. Debbie is now a trusted forever FoC."
-CHARLIE CAMARDA, Astronaut

"Psychologist Deborah Heiser will wind up persuading you that you were born to mentor-on your terms, your way-and that you'll get more out of it than you ever dreamed of. It will bring you the kind of deep satisfaction everyone yearns for. I promise."
