Mentoring and Sponsoring

Keys to Success

By: Maria Angela Capello,Eve Sprunt

This book is a compilation of very personal approaches to mentoring and sponsoring, breaking the stereotypes of seniority, age or experience. The authors have provided a platform to understand that mentoring and especially sponsoring are in fact a win-win relation, in which both sides, mentors and mentees; and sponsors and sponsored individuals learn from each other, enhancing their career paths. How they managed to create a growth space for themselves and their teams through mentoring and sponsoring, is a story of professional leadership. They shared a privileged outlook to understand the root causes of barriers, as well as to envision plausible solutions for difficult career crossroads, in which mentorship or sponsoring was key to steer step changes. The authors propose not only their vision, but a remarkable collection of unfiltered interviews with young and renown professionals in many sectors, from photography to music, research, sports, energy, and more, completing a vision of what is key for both sides of the equation pertinent to mentoring and sponsoring: the givers and the receivers. They explain what is needed to gain the most out of the mentoring and sponsoring loops, with their own career stories. Success is supported by many factors, in which the most important are the technical competency and performance aligned with resilience. However, in the long path of a career, mentors and particularly sponsors play a foundational and frequently a changing-life role, improving our perspective or triggering reflections and actions that benefitted our journeys at work and in life. This book provides insights on what works for an effective mentoring and sponsoring process. It is useful for all professionals, especially those starting their career journeys.

A Guide for Dual-Career Couples

Rewriting the Rules

By: Eve Sprunt Ph.D.

This book discusses the major challenges facing dual-career couples—a substantial proportion of modern society—and suggests ways for both individuals to achieve career success by re-evaluating traditional styles of working and focusing on productivity, flexibility, and negotiating win-win solutions. Women are becoming increasingly influential in the workforce; the era of men being the primary or only income-earner in a partnership is all but gone. Today, people tend to meet their spouse or domestic partner at school or at work. High achievers tend to pair with other high achievers, often in similar fields. This leads to couples in which both individuals are strongly motivated to have successful careers. What happens when they become parents or when one—or both—individuals need to consider relocating for their job? Many mid-career, college-educated people, especially women as well as undergraduate and graduate students, are concerned about developing a plan to mesh their career with a partner and are seeking guidance. This book offers a gender-neutral guide for 21st-century couples that will benefit men as much as women. The author provides career-management guidance for people in dual-career relationships in which both parties are ambitiously attempting to pursue equally important, high-powered careers, presenting examples of alternative solutions and arguing that many "women's issues"—including parenting and limited geographic mobility—are more appropriately managed in a gender-neutral way as dual-career couple issues. Readers will understand how to make better decisions regarding difficult situations, such as whether to accept an opportunity that adversely impacts their personal lives, choosing to take a leave of absence or to quit, investing a large amount of one person's salary for domestic assistance and childcare, taking paternity leave, and leveraging flexible work arrangements—for example, telecommuting.

Cancel Culture

A Critical Analysis

By: Eve Ng

“Cancel culture” has become one of the most charged concepts in contemporary culture and politics, but mainstream critiques from both the left and the right provide only snapshots of responses to the phenomenon. Takinga media and cultural studies perspective, this book traces the origins of cancel practices and discourses, and discusses their subsequent evolution within celebrity and fan cultures, consumer culture, and national politics in the U.S. and China. Moving beyond popular press accounts about the latest targets of cancelling or familiar free speech debates, this analysis identifies multiple lineages for both cancelling and criticisms about cancelling, underscoring the various configurations of power associated with “cancel culture” in particular cultural and political contexts.

Dearest Audrey

An Unlikely Love Story

By: Eve Sprunt

When I untied the ribbons and started reading Audrey's letters, I was profoundly mesmerized and could think of nothing else...." So begins Eve Sprunt's enthralling journey into her Aunt Audrey's past. What she discovers and shares with readers is a story she admits she'd find "rather far-fetched" if she encountered it in a novel. Growing up, Eve had thought her schoolteacher aunt fussy and old-fashioned. This view was reinforced by her mother--Audrey's younger sister--who was fond of referring to Audrey as a "drudge." But, as Eve would discover in dozens of carefully preserved letters she'd written to her colleagues and friends, the reality was vastly more interesting. Wanting more for herself than the hermetic life of an "old-maid" college instructor, Audrey applied for and received one of the earliest Fulbright travel grants. It carried her to Pakistan--a destination that remains exotic to this day--where she experienced a fateful encounter with a divorced American photographer. Was Brix's subsequent proposal of marriage the answer to her dreams--or did it signal the end of her career, her hard-won freedom, herself? Happy endings are different for each of us. Just like Eve--who came to see aspects of herself in her Aunt Audrey--readers will race to learn of the choice Audrey made, and its consequences.
