		<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 &#8211; 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.

		<description><![CDATA[    Glinda the Good Witch VERSUS Cruella de Vil           “I&#8217;ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” ― Maya Angelou     Lately I’ve seen articles with the terms “Hollywood A-listers,” “superstar women” and “bullies” in the same sentence, topped by last month’s Wall Street Journal article by Peggy Drexler, “The Tyranny of the Queen Bee: Women who reached positions of power were supposed to be mentors to those who followed—but something is amiss in the professional sisterhood.” With all the heightened talk of mentors and sponsors, it’s sad to consider that there are 40-something female bosses out there who are terrible bullies.  What’s more, they blame (sometimes rightfully) the generation of women before them – i.e., women like me who are now in their fifties and sixties who were also bullied early in their careers.  It gives new meaning to: “We have seen the enemy, and it is us.”  Don’t believe me?  Deny the obvious?  Come on! How many of us older women can honestly assert we never thought, “Oh, what a wimp!”, as we watched a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Margaret Thatcher – 1925-2013 You loved her or hated her. She saved Britain, or changed it irrevocably into a greedy, heartless, vastly divided nation.  Either way, she was charismatic, powerful, and single-minded. She was proud of her nickname, “The Iron Lady” and she was definitely DARE-ing before her time. Whatever the world thinks of Thatcher, the effects of her powerful years at the helm still ripple outward.  To say Margaret Thatcher was not warm and fuzzy would be an understatement. She wanted to be seen as the prime minister, not as a female prime minister. At her death, she leaves a powerful legacy. She was quite simply one of the most important and powerful political human beings (male or female) of the last 50 years. &#160; Annette Funicello – 1942-2013 To anyone growing up at the advent of TV when the reference to Mickey Mouse’s ears was literal and not a description of an overzealous pigtail hairstyle, Annette (her first name was how most of us referred to her) was the epitome of warm and fuzzy.   And, she was apparently as untouchable as our mothers wanted us to believe we all should be, that is, until properly and officially married.  [...]]]></description>
