“I have been fortunate to be mentored throughout my life, mostly by women. Most of us have been, but we probably didn't even know it. From our mothers, grandmothers and aunts to our teachers and neighbors to our scout leaders and supervisors, I'm certain all of us can find more than a few women who have been a mentor—formal or otherwise.”
