Résumé
Cette étude examine l’impact des pratiques de mentorat auprès des consultants salariés du secteur du conseil en management en France. Les analyses révèlent que l’estime de soi organisationnelle médiatise partiellement une relation positive entre le mentorat et l’engagement affectif envers l’organisation. L’engagement affectif médiatise une relation négative entre le mentorat et l’intention de départ des consultants. Toutefois, ni le mentorat ni l’estime de soi organisationnelle ne sont liés à l’engagement envers la carrière, lequel n’est pas lié à l’intention de quitter l’organisation. Nous discutons la portée de ces résultats pour la compréhension de ces pratiques auprès des travailleurs du savoir.

Abstract
This study examines the impact of mentoring practices in the management consulting industry in France. Analyses reveal that organizational-based self-esteem partially mediates a positive relationship between mentoring practices and affective commitment while affective commitment mediates a negative relationship between mentoring and consultants’ turnover intention. In contrast, mentoring practices and organizational-based self-esteem were unrelated to career commitment, which was also unrelated to turnover intention. We discuss the implications of these results for our understanding of the impact of these practices among knowledge workers.
Keywords:

Resumen
Este estudio examina el impacto de las prácticas de mentoría en el sector de la consultoría de gestión en Francia. Los análisis revelan que la autoestima en el ámbito de la organización incide parcialmente en una relación positiva entre las prácticas de mentoría y el compromiso afectivo, mientras que el compromiso afectivo incide en una relación negativa entre las prácticas de mentoría y la intención de abandonar la empresa por parte de los empleados. En cambio, las prácticas de mentoría y la autoestima en el ámbito de la organización no guardan relación alguna con el compromiso profesional, ni este a su vez con la intención de abandonar la empresa. Analizamos qué consecuencias tienen estos resultados en nuestra comprensión del impacto de estas prácticas entre los profesionales del conocimiento.
Palabras clave:
