GERILYN'S TIP: "Think about where you want to be, how you're going to get there, and who you need to know to get there. Think hard about expanding your network. There's a lot of women on my team, I have regular chats now and again with everybody. I always say to people we hang up, you know, "Hey, put a coffee chat on my calendar and let's catch up." A few do, a lot don't. I would say any opportunity I have to get to know those that have some opportunity to influence your career or help your career, to get to know them, you should do that. To be really intentional about that. It could be somebody in other parts of the business. Think about who you need to know to get to where you want to get to and form relationships. Figure out how to build a relationship with them and get on their radar and eventually, hopefully work that into a sponsor or a mentorship situation."
