When successful professionals talk about how they got to where they are today, they often speak about how a mentor made a difference in their career. For women to thrive in an industry like technology, it’s vital to create a community of advocates, supporters, and mentors. Mentorship can be an extremely powerful tool for individuals looking to grow within their career, but it can also make a difference in corporate culture, leadership development, succession planning, and knowledge transfer.
