L. Gore & Associates. Natalie, Kristen, and Steve discuss sponsorship/mentorship for associates and employees and how that has helped attract and retain diverse talent.

Kristen and Natalie also give great advice to new graduates on finding a career with purpose. Join the podcast for a deep dive on what sponsorship is, best practices, lessons learned, and perhaps, most importantly, the true KPI of sponsorship - connection.
