Your network is an essential career accelerator.
As you continue to accelerate in your career, it can be lonely. Especially for women because there are fewer of them at the top. In my own business, entrepreneurship can be lonely. I don't have built-in co-workers to ping ideas off of, so I have to curate this network myself. It's important to curate a diverse network, too. This means I don't just find other people who do what I do, I learn the most from people who have very different businesses than me. This is also why I encourage my clients to find a network beyond their organization to keep their ideas, insights and perspectives fresh.
