Welcome to ‘Resource Rich Networks’. In this chapter you will be hearing from your expert and mentor, Lauren Maillian.

In this chapter, you’ll get to know Lauren and how she created a resource rich network by harnessing the potential of the people within it. She shares the importance of purposeful introductions, diversifying your network, and the difference between the roles of mentor and sponsor, allowing you to discern how you wish to engage with the potential of being one or of having one.
