Behind every successful woman in tech? A great mentor. Think about the people who’ve shaped your career. ??The ones who pushed you to apply for that opportunity. ??The ones who believed in you when you doubted yourself. ??The ones who gave you tough feedback because they knew you could handle it. Every successful leader I’ve interviewed for my Chief in Tech book highlighted the power of mentorship. Mentors don’t just give advice, challenge your thinking, and push you toward opportunities you might never have considered. Research confirms that mentors are crucial. ?Employees with mentors are 5x more likely to be promoted. ?Mentors & mentees are 20% more likely to receive a raise. In my book, I introduce the MOSAIC framework, with each letter representing a unique type of mentor who plays a vital role in your growth and success: - Motivators offer encouragement when challenges arise. - Openers create access to new opportunities and connections. - Strategists provide guidance for planning your next career steps. - Advocates elevate your work and ensure your voice is heard. - Inspirers encourage you to set ambitious goals and think bigger. - Challengers push you to stay accountable and reach your full potential. ?

When you walk into a room where no one looks like you, it’s easy to feel out of place. The doubt creeps in. The questions surface: Do I belong here? Will my voice matter? Here’s the truth: You’re not there by chance. You’re there to change that. Every room you enter is an opportunity—to challenge the status quo, to bring a fresh perspective, and to ensure the next time someone walks in, they’re not alone. Representation starts with being seen. But real impact? That starts with being heard. ?? Speak up. Not just for yourself, but for the voices that haven’t been invited yet. ?? Show up. Because your presence is already reshaping expectations. ?? Lead boldly. Because leadership isn’t about blending in—it’s about standing out and lighting the way for others. So, if the room wasn’t built for you, it’s time to rebuild it. ?? Repost to your network. ?? And follow Anna Radulovski and WomenTech Network for inspiration and career advice for women in tech and leadership. #womenintech #leadership #inspiration

?? Your manager has more impact on your well-being than your therapist—and that’s a big responsibility.? On this Mental Health Day, let’s recognize the power of leadership in shaping workplace wellness. ? Don’ts: ? Don’t micromanage or create unnecessary pressure—it can fuel stress and anxiety. ? Don’t ignore emotional cues or assume your team is fine without checking in. ? Don’t blur boundaries—respect your team’s time and space, especially outside of work hours. ? Dos: ? Do foster a supportive environment with regular, open communication. ? Do ask questions that go beyond tasks: "How are you really doing?" ? Do encourage a healthy work-life balance by leading with empathy and promoting breaks. ? ? Remember, small actions can have a big impact. Your leadership can either support well-being or contribute to burnout. Choose wisely. ? #WorldMentalHealthDay #SelfCare #MentalHealthMatters #MentalHealthAwareness
