Erin Mayhood: CEO Mentor Collective - Driving career success through mentorship
The guidance of a mentor in your life can profoundly impact both, your professional and personal development. I know for me – if it wasn’t for the presence of several key people encouraging and helping me navigate the terrain during my formative years, Jack Hammer Global wouldn’t be where it is today. This is why I was so excited to talk to Erin Mayhood, CEO of Mentor Collective on the podcast today.
Erin shares her experience transitioning into her new CEO role, emphasizing the new perspectives and, no surprise here, support and mentorship she’s encountered from investors, peers, and leaders along the way. And that is exactly what Erin has been appointed to do – to enhance Mentor Collective’s mission to enhance student success through mentorship, offering personalized support and actionable insights to higher education institutions.
