Overview
Who's delivering for you? Who has your back? Who's burnishing your brand and expanding what you can get done in this world? Sponsorship is a two-way alliance where a leader partners with junior talent to build their skills and advocate for their promotion--all while receiving stellar performance and loyalty in return.

But according to author Sylvia Ann Hewlett, being a sponsor is just as important to career growth as finding one.
