In this episode, we explore the powerful role advocates can play in your career growth and personal development. Advocates aren’t just mentors, they’re the people who believe in your potential, challenge you to improve, and often open doors to new opportunities. Whether they’re leaders, peers, or even direct reports, strong advocates provide feedback, support, and guidance that can shape your trajectory. We dive into how to find and build relationships with advocates, what a good development plan looks like, and how to take ownership of your progress. When you invest in the right relationships, you don’t just move forward, you rise together.
