The Value of a Sponsor
Insight by Ripa Rashid
Ripa Rashid, Cowen’s Head of Inclusion & Diversity, spoke with INSEAD Women in Business Global Club about the value of a sponsor in the workplace, especially for women professionals looking to getting ahead in their career. She defines a sponsor as a workplace leader that advocates for a protégé when they are not in the room and identifies the difference between mentorship and sponsorship.
“Mentors talk with you. Sponsors talk about you.”
