MEN-MENTORS

Read this story and although I strive to help any talent especially female to pursue their dreams it's unfortunate to have to admit that when I started in this business not many females gave me a hand.

When USA TODAY asked female CEOs, chairs and company founders to identify the one mentor who had the most influence on their careers, 33 of the 34 who responded identified a man.
