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.
