Breaking Barriers in Mentorship:
Navigating Common Hurdles
to Empower Women in Insurance
From offering guidance and support to opportunities for growth, mentorship plays a vital role in empowering women in the insurance industry. When entering mentorship, many struggle to maximize the value that these relationships offer. As a mentee or mentor, have you ever found yourself thinking:
- I’ve tried to find a mentor/mentee, but no one has been the right fit
- I’m so busy, and we can never get our schedules aligned
- I don’t know what we should talk about during our time together
- I’m not sure what my goals are or where I want to go in my career
- I wish I knew how to ask for or give feedback in a way that works for different learning styles
- Can I trust this person with my struggles?
- Am I qualified to advise on this person’s career?
Join us for the second Women in Insurance Mentorship Network Webinar to hear from a panel of senior insurance executives as they explore the most common mentorship hurdles and offer practical solutions to overcome them.
Whether you're a mentor or a mentee, this insightful webinar will provide valuable insights into the struggles and opportunities on both sides of these relationships.
