WOMEN IN BUSINESS: The Power of Mentorship • Page 4

The Power of Mentorship

RETHINK YOUR PERCEPTION OF MENTORING RELATIONSHIPS

BY MICHELLE LEACH

WOMEN

DIRECTOR,

COMMUNICATIONS STRATEGIST, UNETECH INSTITUTE, UNMC

Mentorship can come in many forms. For women looking for a mentor in the metro area, that relationship can be defined in many ways.

Lasting Relationships

For Gina Ponce of Women on a Mission for Change (WMC), mentorship is substantive, meaningful, valuable experiences and relationships.

“As a mentor, I feel I have been very successful,” said Ponce, who leads Bellevue University’s outreach efforts to the Latino community. “Sometimes [mentees] spread their wings and move on but come back to celebrate themselves and you. It can be long term or short term depending on the needs of the mentee.”

As a mentee, Ponce said she was always “willing to receive and enact whatever it was that I was receiving that would make me successful.”

“I always sought people in my life who I could connect with,” she said.

Baird Holm is grateful to the community of Omaha for its outstanding support throughout the years. As we look ahead to the future, we are proud to continue the tradition of innovative leadership, dedicated service to clients, and exceptional teamwork that has made us successful for 150 years.

Baird Holm has the highest percentage of female attorneys compared to other similar sized law firms in the region; in fact, more than 1/3 of our attorneys are female.

WMC is an organization that has been in the “business” of helping women and girls since 2011, according to Ponce.

“And I still talk with some of the participants of the conference, the gala and the girls who have participated in the mentoring program,” she said, while referring to signature events and offerings. “By staying in touch, they are reminded that if they need us we are still here to assist them. them have come back as speakers, have written books, graduated college, and started their own businesses. That is how we measure success.”

Generally, Ponce said the most important aspect of mentoring is just “being there.”

“Sometimes women do not know where to start,” she said. “If they have a mentor, the mentor can guide and support them through their journey of life – personally and professionally. women is to lift others up, and watch them be successful in whatever they are trying to accomplish.”

As another nod to the WMC Women’s Conference slated for March 24, Ponce said that throughout the event women are present with other women who are in the “same place,” who share their journeys, and from whom they can learn from.

“Some [women] have such busy lives taking care of others that they forget about themselves,” she remarked. “Sometimes, they do not see the potential they have to succeed. Sometimes, as mentors, we see the capabilities another woman may have and we can point it out and offer the assistance and resources they need to accomplish their goals.”

A successful mentor listens, encourages and provides resources, according to Ponce, who indicated that successful mentor/mentee relationships are built on bonding and the ability to recognize what each person has to offer and receive.

“Be consistent and help [the mentee] celebrate what they have accomplished, even the smallest of successes,” Ponce said.

Boomerang Professionals

Workforce Development Director Alicia Frieze of the Council Bluffs Area Chamber of Commerce spoke about how she has benefited from mentors throughout her career.

“Without the mentorships that I have received, I would not have been able to continue to grow in my career the way that I have or at the rate that I succeeded,” she said. “I continue to meet with mentors that mentor different aspects of my life.”

She noted the importance of having someone in the profession “to discuss your goals and get advice and guidance.”

Additionally, Frieze highlighted the L.I.F.T. Mentor Program, an initiative of the CB Chamber, Human Resource Association of the Midlands and Business Ethics Alliance.

Derived from carefully-crafted and thorough mentor/mentee handbooks, Frieze underscored that the program: “ … is focused on supporting talented professional women looking to restart their careers after an extended absence from the workforce. Women have historically taken on many roles that have caused them to exit the workforce temporarily. Such responsibilities include, but are not limited to, giving birth and raising children, or caring for aging or ailing relatives.”

Additionally, it was noted that COVID-19 caused many mothers to return home – ensuring the well-being of their families, and assuming the duties of educators as schools closed.

L.I.F.T. elevates participants by providing opportunities for them to receive one-on-one professional mentorship, get reacquainted with professional networks, and bolster their skills, perspectives and potential career paths.

“Statistics suggest that 80% of women will not apply for a career unless they have 100% of the requirements – I am one of those statistics,” Frieze

Sometimes, as mentors, we see the capabilities another woman may have and we can point it out and offer the assistance and resources they need to accomplish their goals.

said. “So, it is important to show the women of our community support and give them the strength they need to succeed.”

Frieze said top qualities for a mentor to have include active listening, vulnerability, providing corrective feedback, and speaking of mentees in positive and neutral ways.

“Your mentee needs to trust that your discussions are confidential and that the mentoring relationship is mutually supportive,” she added.

As it relates to healthy mentor/mentee relationships, being authentic when sharing experiences and stories is essential, as well as being realistic, enthusiastic and open-minded.

Full STEAM Ahead

As a communications strategist at UNeTech at UNMC and the principal investigator for the Opportunity Corps: Women in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and math) grant, Stephanie Kidd enthusiastically noted benefiting from mentorship as both mentee and mentor.

“I have a mentor, Kent, for my theater work,” she explained. “He is over CONTINUED

80, and I love that aspect of our mentorship. One of the things we teach in Opportunity Corps is to understand that mentorships can come in all forms, even though most of us think of them as the traditional form of someone who is simply above us structurally within our workplace. Kent is a joy as a mentor – brilliant, kind, collaborative.”

When putting on her mentor “hat,” Kidd said, “I have mentored a number of women through Junior League of Omaha, both formally and informally. It’s one of my favorite aspects of the League.”

In her option, Kidd explained why mentoring is important for women in the context of the STEAM program.

“We know these women face barriers to success within these industries,” she said. “Opportunity Corps pairs our fellows with women mentors within these industries who have already found success.

“We intentionally pair them based on what they tell us they need - career growth, personal growth, networking opportunities. Research shows women are less likely to ask for mentorship and also less likely to find women to serve that need.”

She continued by saying that they see the value in pairing women together who understand their unique issues, in addition to specific needs for guidance.

“Women must navigate through space in a way that men do not,” Kidd added. “Our program focuses on how women can help lift up other women, and connect to share solutions. Additionally, our program has taught us that women use mentors differently than men - with more intention, more emotional connection.”

Now in its second year and as a collaborative UNeTech Institute/Bio Nebraska effort, the Opportunity Corps leaders further encourage their teams to create an “intake process.”

“Our program is 10 months long, and without a specific plan that time could easily slip by without accomplishing much,” she stated. “But if the mentee comes to the mentorship knowing what she wants to accomplish,

the mentorship will be much more successful. We also encourage both partners to be open and willing to learn from each other.”

When Megan Belcher, chief legal and external affairs officer at Scoular, founded Drinks Among Friends, she aimed to create a coalition of women in the legal industry through networking.

“In Omaha, we saw that when referrals and business was allocated, there was a bit of ‘I know a guy’ tagline,” Belcher said. “We wanted to flip the script and make sure that everyone ‘knew a woman’ who was a strong go-to either for outside counsel work, leadership roles, or even for judicial candidates.”

She noted that women, especially women of color, are underrepresented in the top-tier leadership in law in Omaha.

“It’s time to bring the amazing talent we have among the women in law in Omaha to the front of the stage and put them in positions to leverage their superpowers and influence,” Belcher said. “Drinks Among Friends does that by creating informal networks for referrals, visibility for women in law, and development opportunities that we hope will change the rules of the game.”

Through such avenues, finding a mentor not only offers valuable advice to a mentee, but also “offers the mentor’s network as an additional path,” she said.

“Those relationships are incredibly powerful, especially when you think about a relational business community like Omaha,” she added.

Belcher, who noted many meaningful relationships as a mentee and a mentor, shared her advice to making the most out of the relationship.

“Both parties have to be actively engaged, and come to the relationship with an open hand,” she said. “The mentee can sometimes deliver just as much as a mentor. In addition, if it’s not on your calendar, it’s not going to happen. So carving out deliberate and dedicated time is essential to a powerful mentor/mentee relationship.

Our program has taught us that women use mentors differently than men - with more intention, more emotional connection.

A Serendipitous Discovery FITUCATE

MAKES FITNESS AND NUTRITION ACCESSIBLE

Shana Skillstad had never considered working with kids before L.D. Richardson asked her to put together an after-school fitness and nutrition program for Completely Kids. The moment she accepted, Fitucate Nutrition & Training was born.

It was 2014, and word about her program began to spread. Skillstad was working full time at CHI Health in the weight loss management program.

“I was asked to come to more schools, but I couldn’t because of my schedule at the hospital,” she said.

Unexpected Journey

It was a conversation with Douglas County Treasurer John Ewing that pushed her to take a risk.

“He said, ‘I’m not telling you to quit your job, but you are built to do more than working for somebody. Your vision and what you want to do is outside of what you’re doing; That’s been a steppingstone for you, but it’s time for you to [move on],’” she remembered.

She quit her job, telling her worried parents that if she didn’t try, she’d never know what was possible.

Then, her business began to grow as not only more after-school providers reached out, but also individuals seeking personal training. She added after-school sessions at Lothrop Elementary, then Belvedere, Gomez and Castelar. She coached individuals in their homes or at Planet Fitness.

“Then I started thinking about a gym space,” she said. “I didn’t have any overhead, but I wanted to grow the business.”

She opened the gym at 6052 Wenninghoff Rd. in Omaha near Northwest High School in 2016.

Scaling Up

Since then, she has received additional contracts from Completely Kids, as well the YMCA, Collective for Youth and DREAM, allowing her curriculum to reach over 2,000 students. Fitucate currently operates in 20 schools in the Omaha Public Schools district, and six schools in the Council Bluffs Schools district.

“Each week, [the students] have a different topic and a different activity that they do, teaching them about healthy food and how

to stay active. We do some mindfulness activities, like yoga and meditation,” Skillstad said.

The biggest challenge isn’t finding children to serve, but rather finding the instructors. Because they work with kids after school, potential instructors have to be available when students end classes, around 4 p.m. for elementary students, and 3 p.m. for middle school students. On top of scheduling, instructors also have to like working with kids, or, at the very least, be patient.

“These kids, it’s the end of their school day, so they’re tired, they’re sick of sitting still, so the attention of a kindergarten class is different every day,” Skillstad said. “So there’s got to be a lot of flexibility to how you’re approaching individual kids or the class. And if you get through half of the curriculum, you get through half of it.”

Instructors aren’t required to have certifications, but they have to have experience and knowledge in fitness and nutrition. Skillstad said some after-school instructors are retired teachers, or yoga instructors, or interns studying various fitness disciplines at the collegiate level.

Outside of the after-school programs, Fitucate offers six-week group programs for youth, teaching them the basics of weight training, conditioning, and proper movement.

There are also six-week programs for adults, generally consisting of two workouts at the gym and three at home through an app, on varying focuses from glutes, to muscle building, to weight loss.

“Each thing that we offer is either for an individual or a group,” she said.

“I get a lot of people who like the class structure. They like the competitiveness, they like the cohesiveness, they like being with other people. I’ve also had a few of my clients for 10 or 12 years, and they’ve done personal training forever. A class would never be something they would want.”

Being the Change

Early on, her experience working with youth in low-income areas opened her eyes to the challenges students were facing. She admits that she was somewhat oblivious given her upbringing.

She decided she needed to do something to help, even if it was something small. As a member of Thrivent Financial, she learned she could apply for an Action Team and receive $250 in seed funding. She applied, and upon receiving the money on a gift card she went promptly to the department store and purchased 20 coats for kids participating in the after-school program.

That was nine years ago, and since 2016 alone Koats 4 Kids, run through the Fitucate Foundation (formerly Fresh Wellness Foundation), has matched 4,000 kids with coats, hats and gloves.

One year she recalled going to the Walmart’s in Omaha, Papillon, Bellevue and Council Bluffs and purchasing their whole stock. “We had shopping carts tied together with bungee cords and then

coats just like thrown all over,” she recalled. “So it’s been fun.”

Skillstad set the bar high in 2022 with a goal of raising $15,000 to purchase 500 coats. While they didn’t quite meet the mark, they were able to donate 408 coats.

Knowing that the healthy lifestyle needs to follow kids outside of the classroom, the Foundation has been working on supplying Healthy Lifestyle Kits. The kits provide families with exercise equipment – such as resistance bands and jump ropes – and exercises to follow, as well as healthy recipes.

In July the Foundation hosted its first Golf tournament to raise money for Healthy Lifestyle Kits. They were able to raise $12,000.

Other events include Back 2 School, where barbers and nail technicians donate their time and services to get kids excited for school.

“Giving back to the community was something that I always felt was the most important thing,” Skillstad said.

As I look back over the past 30-plus years I’ve been in the publishing/media business, I realize where I am today is largely because of the choices I have made. Some of them created more ease and more joy in my life and business, and some of them did not.

We are all a work in progress and constantly evolving. There are hundreds, thousands—make that millions—of choices we can make at any given time.

We all are making choices. Every moment in every day there are choices to make. We are choosing what we wear, what we eat, what we do, who we do it with, where we work, how we nurture our bodies or how we don’t. We choose happiness and joy and we also choose sadness and struggle.

What I love about CHOICE is that you always have a CHOICE. If you choose something and it doesn’t work out or you change your mind, you can choose again. When I hear myself saying, “I have no choice,” that is a choice.

Gary Douglas, founder of Access Consciousness, encourages us to choose in 10-second increments. There is no right or wrong choice, good or bad choice. There is just CHOICE.

Ask yourself, “If I choose (fill in the blank), what will my life be like in a year, five years, ten years? (Or perhaps, in keeping with the above admonition, in the next 10 seconds?) Will this choice create more in my life or less?”

Only you can answer that question. My life continues to change by asking such questions. What are you choosing in 2023? And remember: If it isn’t working out or feeling light—choose again!

What else is possible (in the next 10 seconds, 10 minutes, months, years?) That begins with your next CHOICE!

What else is possible? ~ ANDEE

The following are some guidelines to consider when posting legal notices with the Midlands Business Journal:

1. Submit a written notice in either Microsoft Word or as a PDF document either through mbj.com or through the Legal Department at legals@ mbj.com. For trade names, submit a copy of approved (bar code in upper right hand corner) Application For Registration of Trade Name from the Secretary of State to the same email address.

Please include your billing address and the desired duration you’d like your notice to run (trade names run for only one week). As a publisher and not a legal advisor we print notices exactly as they are submitted and therefor only comp reruns when the notice was rejected or messed up due to a MBJ error.

All companies submitting notices are responsible for ensuring the content fits with the State’s requirements and are responsible for the cost of republishing the notice if it is rejected due to misinformation or missing information

2. You will receive a confirmation and price quote. Legal notices, except for trade names, are charged per line. The flat fee for a trade name is $50. Payment is now credit or debit card.

3. Deadline is 5 p.m. on Monday for a notice to start publishing that Friday.

4. All costs include fees to file the notice with the Secretary of State and/or any appropriate courts.

5. Invoices must be paid prior to publication.
