Research has repeatedly demonstrated that organizations with more diversity in leadership roles show increased profitability, are more competitive and agile in the marketplace, have a greater level of innovation, and have higher customer satisfaction rates. When implemented well, mentorship programs don't just break down walls and shatter glass ceilings, they build stairs to the next level of the organization.
