Our colleagues at Women of Influence+ are exploring how sponsorship from men in leadership influences women's career growth. Sponsorship occurs when senior leaders advocate for colleagues by endorsing them for high-profile projects, leadership roles, and key decision-making opportunities. While all leaders can serve as sponsors, men — given their representation at senior levels — are uniquely positioned to expand advancement opportunities. This research examines the motivations, barriers, and impact of sponsorship from men in leadership as part of a broader effort to foster equity and inclusion. We encourage everyone in our network to participate and share this survey with colleagues — especially peers and leaders who are men. The survey closes Friday, March 7th, and results will be shared on Tuesday, March 25th. Take the survey today at the link below. https://lnkd.in/gryxW_kq #womenofinfluence #roomwomensnetwork
About us
Room is a Canadian-headquartered, global network for women leaders of today and tomorrow. Room brings together a diverse collective of women leaders and high-potential pipeline women, and empowers them to grow together to innovate, lead and drive future advancement. Almost 60 million women have left the global workforce since 2020. While the number of women in senior roles is gradually starting to climb, the pipeline has essentially dried up. Without support for women leaders of the future, gender parity in leadership roles will remain out of reach. Room provides a supportive network, and the career development tools women need to get back on track to filling leadership roles.
