“Sponsorship proposes an active engagement and commitment to one’s professional advancement. The dialogue about a glass ceiling for women that prevents them from acceding to leadership positions has been persisting for too long without any meaningful progress. Leaders in a position of influence must recognize the import of embracing diversity of thought around the table at which strategic decisions are made and enable the success of high potential women by deliberately ensuring they are invited into the discussion and genuinely acknowledging the value of their contributions. Sponsorship will facilitate and ensure a strong pipeline of women capable of rich contribution for decades to come.”
