Pohlad Sponsorship Program
In 2021, Pohlad Companies created a cross organization, cohort-based program aimed at helping talent to connect through career advocacy, talent visibility and professional development. Research has found that while mentoring is essential to leadership development, it is not enough, on its own, to help talent advance. Successful outcomes points to a more influential professional relationship: sponsorship.
