Friendshipable
122: Mentoring emerging leaders, with Sharlee Lyons
Have you ever considered the power of mentoring in catapulting leaders to all-star status? Beyond just being a guiding hand, it can be a powerful tool in fostering authentic leadership and team development.
In this episode, we talk about the essence of female mentorship and why it is crucial in today's professional landscape. With our guest, Sharlee Lyons, we explore how mentoring goes beyond traditional roles, shifting from being the "sage on the stage" to a "guide on the side." It's not solely about age or experience; rather, mentoring is also about having someone who will advocate for you even when you're not in the room. And we know that asking someone to be your mentor can be uncomfortable, yet the value that stems from these relationships is immeasurable.
Sharlee Lyons is a dynamic leader with a background in athletics and leadership development. Her book, "Average to All-Star," reflects her passion for helping individuals reach their full potential. As a former Division 1 athlete, she understands the dedication and resilience required to excel. Currently, Sharlee focuses on developing authentic emerging leaders and leadership teams, emphasizing the transformative power of mentorship. Her insights shed light on the importance of fostering meaningful connections and supporting one another's growth journeys.

Thank you for listening.
After much reflection, we have made the difficult decision to shut down Project BFF and the podcast. Our last podcast episode aired on August 23, 2024. We are leaving the podcast live on Buzzsprout through the end of 2024.
We are proud of this podcast and honored to have hosted such amazing and engaging guests.
Our hope is that Project BFF and Friendshipable have inspired you to form new friendships, strengthen existing ones, and encourage others to do the same
Thank you for being a part of our story. The two of us have truly deepened our friendship during this time, and we look forward to new and memorable adventures together in and around New England, which serves as the adopted home for both of us.
With gratitude and friendship,
Manya and Terri
