		<description><![CDATA[Most of us by now have learned that using the term “seasoned executive” is a sure turnoff to many of today’s younger hiring managers, some of whom look as if they could be our kids but in fact are now our supervisors. They’re learning early how to Drive, Advance, Rule and Express their Experience and Expertise.  Make no mistake that they are running the new world, and we must run along with them, run faster than them, or run and hide from them.  For me and other women over 40 who DARE, the last choice isn’t even an option.  I say we challenge ourselves to run along with them and champion them to win – the pie is big enough for all of us.      Two phenomenal young 20-something women I met several months ago illustrate this point.  At the behest of a friend, I attended an evening networking event sponsored by New York Women in Communications, being held at an Upper West Side restaurant in a very fashionable neighborhood in New York City. Among the young women we observed scooping up guacamole, slurping mixed cocktails, and balancing their tiny frames on vertiginously high heels that evening were Micaela and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There has been much debate recently about the importance of Mentors vs. Sponsors, and the similarities between the two roles.  The critical contrast between MENTORS and SPONSORS is that the latter can be actual drivers of your career decisions and future mobility &#8211; and they put themselves on the line for you.  Your Mentor(s) may also do that, but once they do, they’ve actually become your SPONSOR.  Here are some of the benefits you can expect from SPONSOR: Championing you for an internal promotion or similar career-advancing opportunity (such as a high-visibility conference) that you would not have heard of otherwise, or for which you are one of many candidates; Sharing with you pending industry or company news that s/he has access to before it becomes public, news that could directly affect you; Putting your name forward as an ideal candidate for a prime position at a firm where you don’t have connections &#8211; and/or calling in favors with hiring managers and other powerful people who owe them favors; Making a compelling case for your hire to a fellow senior-level executive, going so far as to convince the executive to create a position just for you.   Furthermore, the guarantor/insurer benefit [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From clients as well as students I teach at NYU, I am getting a lot of questions about the importance of having a career SPONSOR, specifically: 1) The role of SPONSORS vs. Mentors2) How to find a SPONSOR3) What to expect from a SPONSOR4) What SPONSORS expect from you. Those are all questions that serve the mentee or sponsored individual much more so than the Mentor or SPONSOR.  Each role has very often different parameters, benefits and expectations.  This blog deals with the role of SPONSORS vs. Mentors; and how to find a SPONSOR.  Part 2 will address what to expect from SPONSORS and what SPONSORS expect from you. Mentors are usually informal advisors and counselors, perhaps your supervisors, teachers, colleagues or even – and most especially for professionals over 50 - former direct reports you trust.  “Mentor” comes from the Greek guide who helped Odysseus on his legendary journey; therefore there’s both an implication and an inference of altruism.  Don’t ignore or neglect to maintain good relationships with younger professionals you helped early in your career, as they may be in good positions to help you later…as Mentors or SPONSORS. Typical roles of Mentors: …provide guidance, opinion and perhaps [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here are some powerful tips from the “Access/Approach” and “Exchange” methods featured in my book, Get DARE From Here, 12 Principles and Practices for Women Over 40 to Take Stock, Take Action and Take Charge of the Rest of Their Lives: Be exceedingly nice to everyone: Some of the people you are able to ACCESS in the short run might not be decision makers or people who can readily help you achieve your Aims, but they can help you navigate ACCESS to &#38; APPROACH the decision makers you really need. Be exceedingly nice to everyone, especially those who might in fact have advice regarding the ACCESS &#38; APPROACH you should take. No crueler body of truth can damn you in a competitive job situation than a former subordinate who asserts you were the absolute most hellish boss or colleague. Mailroom attendants, secretaries, junior account execs, bank tellers, nannies – anyone who’s ever crossed your path as a colleague – could paint you as Cruella Deville or Medea. Take care what you say online: Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Google+, Pinterest and LinkedIn.  Never before in the history of womankind has it been so easy to identify, investigate and reveal your past transgressions.
