The Sponsor Effect
By Sylvia Ann HewlettPublisher Description
One of the most overlooked ways to becoming a better leader and advancing your career is by sponsoring others--by aligning yourself with junior talent who can deliver for you through loyalty and performance while you advocate for their career growth and develop them as leaders. This book demystifies how to build and nurture these two-way relationships, and provides a seven-step playbook for how select the right proteges, invest in the relationship, and make it work so that you--and your proteges and the organization--benefit.
Audience:
- Leaders and managers at all levels who want to grow in their career.
- Previous buyers of Forget a Mentor, who have successfully navigated securing sponsorship and now want to become sponsors themselves.
- (Secondary audience) HR professionals starting sponsorship initiatives in their companies, so they have resources to hand off to their leaders and managers.
