Über diesen Titel

Building a STEM career looks different around the world, but the benefits of mentorship, sponsorship, and community are universal. In this episode, Abosede Adewole, principal electrical engineer with Nigeria’s Federal Housing Authority, and Stella Uzochukwu, country director of the Odyssey Educational Foundation, discuss the differences between mentorship and sponsorship, as well as their personal journeys navigating gender bias in Nigeria’s engineering and technology sectors. Interviewed at WE25 by Laurie Shuster, editor-in-chief of SWE Magazine, hear why sponsorship often happens behind closed doors, tips to make yourself visible and “sponsorship-ready,” and how Abosede and Stella are supporting the next generation through STEM outreach initiatives. — The Society of Women Engineers is a powerful, global force uniting 50,000 members of all genders spanning 85 countries. We are the world’s largest advocate and catalyst for change for women in engineering and technology.
