Women in Partnerships
Women in Partnerships is a Partnership Leaders initiative led by Joni Deus of Mailchimp. The subcommunity provides a comfortable platform for women of any seniority level to ask questions, get advice, and share their experiences.
How We’re Building Up Women in Partnerships
We're working to overcome the notion that partnerships is a male-dominated industry by shedding light on the powerful women making waves in partnerships. With our Women in Partnerships group, ladies in the industry have a comfortable environment for asking questions and sharing their experiences with others who have gone thorugh similar things. Our Women in Partnerships interview series spotlights powerful women accomplishing great things in the industry, showcasing their story and talents.
Maryam LahijiSarvar Consulting“1:1 coaching helps you put things in perspective and get out of your head to learn how to see yourself and represent yourself in a better light. People don’t really tell you how to navigate empathy as a woman leader in tech. People are moving so fast. It's not a conversation you can have normally. It’s good to seek out people you can talk to and have mentorships.”

Sarit ChalmishMonday.com“I have some female mentors in my orbit, and what I learn from them is more specific to being a woman in partnerships. First, with regards to motherhood and the notion of the non-existent work-life balance. That’s one thing I always like airing with female executives more. And second, the tips that aren’t written anywhere. The male executives could have told me, but it transcends the network differently when it comes from female mentors.”

Tori PiccinClearco“There have been moments in my career where there were great female mentors. There were also times when I’ve seen female leaders who didn’t quite understand the impact they have in shaping the next generation. I think it’s important to acknowledge that even if you don’t see it, people are looking up to you.”
