I was in a similar position to your co-worker, an investing newbie, a couple of months ago. The following things opened up the world of DGI for me:
1) As others have suggested SBI was great for a beginner like me. It convinced me do more research on DGI, which I eventually chose as my investment approach.
2) Josh Peter's "Dividend Playbook" is good. The material in this is similar to SBI and I think SBI is better, but "Dividend Playbook" is still good. I'm not sure if there is an online PDF of this.
3) I would consider showing him some of Dividend Mantra's more inspirational/investing mindset blog entries. I think these are good for beginners and they show what is possible with DGI.
4) You and this forum.
It is great that he can ask questions and talk to knowledgeable DGIer(s).
