What Rules!?: A career podcast for women of color

84. How to Find Mentors & Sponsors (Own Your Power Series, Part 3)


Listen Later

The #1 question we get from women of color is, how do I find a mentor and sponsor? 

In Part 3 of our Own Your Power Series, we reveal why you need both. “If you’re not sure what you want to do, go to a mentor,” says co-host Alisa Manjarrez. “As soon as you know, go to a sponsor.” 

We tell you how to find a mentor who you can trust and is a good fit for you. 

We also fill you in on how a sponsor can help you get ahead and the best way to approach a possible candidate.
