It only takes one message-- one simple act of reaching out-- to start a conversation and establish the start of a relationship. My mentor, Cheryl O’Donoghue, reached out to me with a simple “hello” after she had been inspired by a few of my accomplishments. She wrote in an email to me, “Let me know when we can chat!”
This little message galvanized a mentorship that has opened up tons of opportunities for both Cheryl and me throughout the past year. I am grateful for everything she has taught me and enabled me to achieve. The power of a mentor is essential in paving the way for advancing in one’s field and forming connections.
I am thrilled to share the news that Cheryl’s newest book, How to Be an Emotionally Intelligent Leader, has been released! Twenty emotionally intelligent leaders (including myself) are featured. See this press release for more information. The PDF of my chapter can be accessed here.
