In episode 204, Coffey talks with Rosalind Chow about the distinct roles of mentorship and sponsorship in advancing careers and building more inclusive workplaces. They discuss the distinction between mentorship (which helps grow the mentee) and sponsorship (which seeks to change how others see the protege); how sponsorship functions like marketing or PR campaigns for high-potential employees; the four types of sponsorship - creating, confirming, preventing, and protecting; why sponsors risk their own credibility and reputation when advocating for others; how sponsorship doesn't require formal hierarchical relationships but depends on trust and status; how to become more "sponsorable" by being a top performer with clear values and compelling personal story; the risks of having the wrong sponsor or appearing as the "teacher's pet"; and how sponsorship creates inclusion by ensuring high performers are seen, valued, and given opportunities regardless of their background or circumstances. Good Morning, HR is brought to you by Imperative—Bulletproof Background Checks.

While mentorship can change mentees for the better through valuable coaching and encouragement, sponsorship takes it one step further — sponsors can change the social environment around their proteges by actively advocating for, raising the social visibility of, and protecting them. Put simply, while mentors act on mentees, sponsors act on external observers – audiences - to change how they see proteges.  We don't just have the ability to change other people; we also have the ability to change other people's relationships with one another. This ability - the power we have as sponsors - is something we can leverage to better ourselves, other people, and our communities. Rosalind Chow can be reached athttp://www.rosalindchow.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/rosalind-chow-6b25541b0/  About Mike Coffey: Mike Coffey is an entrepreneur, licensed private investigator, business strategist, HR consultant, and registered yoga teacher.In 1999, he founded Imperative, a background investigations and due diligence firm helping risk-averse clients make well-informed decisions about the people they involve in their business.Imperative delivers in-depth employment background investigations, know-your-customer and anti-money laundering compliance, and due diligence investigations to more than 300 risk-averse corporate clients across the US, and, through its PFC Caregiver & Household Screening brand, many more private estates, family offices, and personal service agencies.Imperative has been named a Best Places to Work, the Texas Association of Business' small business of the year, and is accredited by the Professional Background Screening Association. Mike shares his insight from 25+ years of HR-entrepreneurship on the Good Morning, HR podcast, where each week he talks to business leaders about bringing people together to create value for customers, shareholders, and community.Mike has been recognized as an Entrepreneur of Excellence by FW, Inc. and has twice been recognized as the North Texas HR Professional of the Year. Mike serves as a board member of a number of organizations, including the Texas State Council, where he serves Texas' 31 SHRM chapters as State Director-Elect; Workforce Solutions for Tarrant County; the Texas Association of Business; and the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce, where he is chair of the Talent Committee.Mike is a certified Senior Professional in Human Resources (SPHR) through the HR Certification Institute and a SHRM Senior Certified Professional (SHRM-SCP).

For EP30 of Chain Reactions, we sat down with Kiko (KZ), co-founder of [Chomp](https://chomp.so/), to dive into one of the most unexpectedly delightful and high-signal consumer products in crypto: a daily opinion game that's part Reddit, part Polymarket, and fully powered by Solana speed and second-order thinking.We explore Kiko's path from working at Mattel and Deloitte to leading business at Orca and ultimately co-founding Chomp — and how her background in user research, education, and design at IDEO helped shape her vision for what trustworthy information markets should look like in a world flooded with AI-generated noise.Kiko breaks down how Chomp uses game mechanics to turn subjective questions into trusted signal, what she's learned from thousands of hours of user research, and why streaks, cute mascots, and good vibes might be the secret to onboarding the next million users to crypto. We also cover the deeper mechanics behind Chomp's surprisingly powerful prediction engine — including Bayesian Truth Serum and why betting on second-order beliefs yields alpha.If you're building in consumer crypto, curious about the future of trustless UX, or just want a smarter way to kill time on the toilet — this one's for you.Please enjoy, and as always, be sure to subscribe, give us a five star review, and mint our episode at https://pods.media/myosinxyz!

Jessica shares common onboarding pitfalls, how to create programs that keep new hires engaged, and why company culture must be communicated from day one.This episode is sponsored by Insight Global Health.

We construct romantic due diligence processes mirroring corporate HR protocols—sexual history disclosures becoming background checks, attachment styles treated as credit scores, communication methods analyzed like Six Sigma workflows.
