Big thanks to Colleen Deere for joining us to share how mentorship can help Military Spouses reach their full potential.
Colleen offers some great advice for Military Spouses:
-Ask for help
-When meeting with a mentor: Identify three things you want out of the relationship...network, resume, where to be in 5 years, etc..
Love her Super Power: She can spot a grammatical error immediately (my mom as a former teacher loves this one)
Heads Up: ACP is hosting a great event on 15 May: Women Leadership event with three executives from General Motors. Free to participate
If you are a mentor, military spouse looking for a mentor or company looking to make a real difference reach out to ACP: www.acp-usa.org
