Send us a textSUMMARYIn this illuminating conversation with corporate law powerhouse Heather Barnhouse, we unpack the vital roles that mentorship and networking play in advancing women's careers and leadership journeys. Mentorship and networking play crucial roles in advancing women's leadership, requiring a diverse "success circle" rather than relying on just one or two connections.HIGHLIGHTS• Understanding the concept of a success circle with nine different supporter types• Recognizing mentorship isn't one-size-fits-all but requires customization• Appreciating the distinction between mentorship (guidance) and sponsorship (advocacy)• Building connections organically rather than forcing formal mentorship relationships• Finding mentors outside your profession who bring fresh perspectives• Learning from difficult relationships what doesn't work for you• Taking a broad view of networking beyond traditional professional settings• Resisting overthinking and starting with "low-hanging fruit" networking opportunities• Asking specific questions rather than making general requests• Making relationship-building a consistent priority, not just an occasional activityThink about what room you'd like to have access to, what you'll do to gain that access, and what one question you'd ask someone in that room.Get in contact with Heather -> click hereSupport the showWoman Up!
