Answer to Question 1

Answer: The manager should provide timely performance feedback, developmental assignments and support. The manager should participate in career development discussions. The manager should support employee development plans. A coach focuses on teaching shorter-term job-related skills. A mentor helps employees navigate longer-term, hard-to-reverse issues.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Reality shock occurs when a new employee has high expectations for a new job but then finds that the job is boring and/or unchallenging. Employers can prevent this by providing realistic job previews and challenging first jobs. A realistic job preview can help prospective employees more accurately gauge whether the job is really for them and whether the job's demands are a good fit with a candidate's skills and interests.
