The Sponsor Effect

One of the most overlooked ways to becoming a better leader and advancing your career is by sponsoring others--by aligning yourself with junior talent who can deliver for you through loyalty and performance while you advocate for their career growth and develop them as leaders. This book demystifies how to build and nurture these two-way relationships, and provides a seven-step playbook for how select the right proteges, invest in the relationship, and make it work so that you--and your proteges and the organization--benefit.
