Mattel has partnered with Women in Toys, Licensing & Entertainment (WIT) to underwrite their new mentorship initiative. The Ruth Handler Mentorship Program housed under WIT is designed to advance career growth across the toy industry.

The creation of the program began with a discussion between Amy Thompson, Chief People Officer at Mattel, and Janice Ross, WIT’s newly inducted president. “She [Thompson] shared with me her passion for mentorship,” Ross explained. “We both agreed that what a great focus for WIT…We peeled it back and discussed how important that is as something for women. As women, we don't just naturally have it in the workplace candidly.

“The biggest challenge that we will face going forward is the challenge of opportunity,” Ross smiles. “We have so much opportunity ahead of us that it really becomes the challenge to resource it. One of the things that Ashley [Mady, former WIT president] did such a great job of is really preparing the organization for growth and continued success…The biggest challenge that we will have is in actually bringing to fruition the numerous programs and events and resources for our membership base.
