Guest Editorial

Rathmell: My mentor recognized a cliff I was going to fall off before I did.
“He was there to stand with me while I fell, and then made me look up and see that I needed to lean into the experience.”

I was really excited to get to talk about the role that mentorship plays in women’s leadership development. It’s a topic that I’ve thought a lot about, and also that I’ve benefitted from, and that I think is not always applied with enough intention. There is an art to mentorship, and I want to share some of how that has helped me navigate career transitions and pivot to leadership roles.
