With women making up a minor fraction of managers and C-suite executives; it can be a challenge to find a female in power who can show you the ropes. The good news is that your potential female mentor doesn’t need to be from your organisation or even in the C-suite. They just need to have the relevant skills and lived experiences that you need to learn from. The art of finding a mentor is simple, but it takes patience and persistence. For ambitious women in the workplace, finding a female mentor can be the difference between disenchantment and achievement in your career.
