Key Discussion Points:
01:00 Navigating Power Structures: Mentorship, sponsorship, female allyship, and having a strong support system are all integral to navigating power structures in male-dominated workspaces.
03:48 The Value of Mentorship: Don’t underestimate how important it is to be surrounded by inspiring women who can support and help move you forward.
04:42 Mentorship vs. Sponsorship: We need to do more than just help shape other women's journeys. We need to raise our hands and pull them up in the invisible spaces they don't have access to yet.
07:26 Moving Beyond Mentorship: A formal mentor-mentee relationship is a structured process. Sponsorship moves beyond this.
In Summary: Fabia, Zanele, and Mai urge us to move beyond mentorship and into sponsorship. Don’t just guide others behind closed doors, fully support those individuals and help them access spaces they don’t have access to yet.
