<\/a>presume innocence and take these 14 precautionary steps. by ida o. abbott<\/i> if you are concerned about the possibility of sex-related problems, consider the degree of risk involved and whether you are willing to assume it.<\/p>\n more on sponsoring women for leadership:<\/b> image often carries \u2018double bind\u2019 baggage <\/a>\u00a0| sponsorship best practices, early and ongoing<\/a> | 3 ways to wreck a woman\u2019s career<\/a> | 4 reasons women say no to leadership<\/a> | fix gender bias at your firm<\/a> | sponsor or mentor?<\/a> | being the best means including women<\/a> before you decide, consider some men use these concerns as rationalizations to avoid sponsoring women for other reasons. don\u2019t be one of them.<\/p>\n here are some suggestions to prevent sexual entanglements, rumors, spousal jealousy and allegations of harassment:<\/p>\n some men have wives who get jealous or resentful when their husbands sponsor young women. if you have a strong marriage and a secure wife, explain your sponsorship intentions to her so that she understands and accepts the situation. if you have a shaky marriage or an insecure wife, the problem is harder to deal with, and it may be intractable if your wife\u2019s suspicions are because you have had affairs or given her reason to be jealous in the past. your wife\u2019s personal problems and your need to repair relations with her have to be addressed, perhaps through counseling, but that is outside the scope of this book.<\/p>\n as a sponsor, you need to be aware of how your personal problems may interfere with your professional responsibilities and deal with them as best you can. what you should not do is run away from those problems by limiting your sponsorship to men. that would be a violation of your obligation as a leader to ensure that your firm has the best talent in place to guide and ensure its success.<\/p>\n women also refrain from seeking male sponsors for the same reasons.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n it is also important to recognize that you are not alone in your concern about sponsorship with the opposite sex. women<\/p>\n if your prot\u00e9g\u00e9e is married or has a partner, acknowledge his role in promoting her success. let her know that you consider him a partner in your effort to help her advance because his support for her is essential to that endeavor. when appropriate, for example, if she receives a promotion or award, contact him and recognize both her accomplishments and his support for her.<\/p>\n if you sense that your prot\u00e9g\u00e9e has any concerns or problems because of your sponsorship, ask her about it. tell her you are willing to address them. if she declines, respect her choice but let her know you will remain open to talking about it at a later date. if she does present any sex-related issues, deal with them directly and honestly, and try to work out an arrangement that will make her feel safe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
