Deb Hannah was promoted both times she was on maternity leave, something nearly unheard of happening to women in business. Hannah, senior vice president of marketing at Shoe Carnival, says this is all thanks to sponsors who spoke highly of her when she wasn’t in the room. In this video clip from an interview with Women in Retail Leadership Circle member Cindy Marshall, CEO and founder of SHINE Strategy, Hannah shares how she both mentors and sponsors young professionals, as well as how she helps individuals discover their personal superpower.

This video clip comes from a recorded session at the Women in Retail Pavilion during Shoptalk 2022 in Las Vegas.
