Mentoring Alternatives: The Role of Peer Relationships in Career Development [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Little is known about work relationships, other than mentoring relationships, that contribute to adult and career growth. A biographical interview study of 25 relationship pairs indicated that relationships with peers offer important alternatives to those with conventionally defined mentors. This study identifies types of peer relationships, highlights various enhancing functions these relationships provide, and shows the unique manner in which these relationships can support psychosocial and career development at every career stage.
