Here's this week's SMDP Mentor Moment
Build your own superfans 

A “superfan” in a professional context is someone who genuinely supports your work. They speak well of you when you are not in the room. They recommend you for opportunities. They think of you when something relevant comes up. They do this because they genuinely believe in you and they have confidence and trust in your work and in you as a person. Such a superfan never needs to be asked for their support, they just do it.

Log on to the SMDP Portal to view this "Mentor Moment" and don't forget to discuss this topic with your mentor/mentee - or share this content with someone else who can benefit from it.
