According to the Harvard Business Review article titled, Why Men Still Get More Promotions Than Women,

"while women generally have traditional mentors, men have sponsors. These sponsors go beyond giving feedback and advice, and use their influence with senior-level executives to advocate for their mentee’s career advancement. The sponsors help open doors to the top level for their mentee rather than just pointing out where the doors are and explaining how to open them."

Please join us and your peers as we engage on this theme.  A panel discussion will share their experiences and ideas, helping you incorporate this in your career path.

Women in Media Luncheon, World Publishing Expo
30th October 2012, Frankfurt am Main, Germany

The discussion will be followed by a buffet lunch allowing you to get to know the other delegates.
