The research showed that women engineering undergraduates paired with a female mentor were less anxious and less likely to drop out of their courses. They were more motivated and more self-assured -- and, crucially, more likely to look for engineering jobs after graduation.

As a woman in tech, I've seen the difference mentors have made in my own life. And as someone who cares a lot about changing tech's male-dominated culture, I want to know: How can we encourage mentoring for the next generation of industry leaders?
