Let’s Demystify Mentorship vs Sponsorship – Once and for All!
On Today’s episode – Pt. Two – we will demystify and take a deep dive into the mentor and sponsor relationship and define their importance along the leadership journey. We Set the stage and focus on Mentor and Sponsorship as it relates to Diversity.

These two episodes are dedicated in loving memory to my good friend and mentor Jim Hogan a loving husband, father and leader. Jim impacted my life in so many ways from our love of sports, leadership and developing people. But most of all his love of life and sense of humor were the true genius of his leadership and why so many people loved him. Jim Hogan, a great husband, father, leader and friend.

Episode Overview
Mentor and Sponsor Relationships are:
1. Defined relationships
2. Structured and intentional with a common goal
3. Pragmatic and sensible
Mentoring:
• can expose diverse individuals into new and insightful professional realms
• Mentorship is not limited to just the workplace. In some organizations, Diversity pipelines can be weak. It’s important that non-diverse leaders assist in mentoring outside of the organization for a greater impact.
Sponsorship:
• Is more effective than mentoring in delivering real-world results because they directly create career progress
• A sponsor can help take charge of the professional experiences and positioning for your career

In part two we will discuss it from three perspectives:
✓ Leadership second their impact on leaders
