Mentorship, Sponsorship, and Lifting Others as You Climb

In this audio-only course, host Zach Nunn speaks with Marty Rodgers of Accenture about the concept of lifting as you climb. They go over the differences between mentorship and sponsorship, as well as the importance of bi-directional value in a mentor-mentee relationship. They discuss how to find a sponsor who can help you get to where you want to be and how to increase your odds of getting the sponsor that you are trying to lock down. Zach and Marty conclude with a discussion of how to build your company to be a company of aspiration, rather than scarcity.

Zach Nunn is part of Living Corporate, a multimedia diversity, equity, and inclusion platform that centers and amplifies black and brown professionals in the workplace through narrative storytelling.
