Countless times throughout my 40 years in business and entrepreneurship, I have observed the transformative power of mentorship. Not only can the right mentor accelerate the career of an individual, but on a broader scale, mentorship can be a powerful force for good, affecting meaningful, real-world change.

In fact, one of the reasons I launched Women Get On Board Inc. (WGOB) was to connect women with potential mentors. By building a community of serving and aspiring women corporate directors, we created an environment in which mentorship relationships could organically occur, forging connections that would help more women to get on boards.

To help others harness this power, allow me to share what I’ve learned about mentorship throughout my career. To read my full article on the power of mentorship, download the new issue of I Am Unbreakable Magazine here.
