she was a dear in mentoring. jennifer dunn was a very good mentor to so many people. they would sit down and talk to us about the history of things. how you got things done. as well as just personally being friends. that was important. barbara vucanovich was another one who was very good about reaching out and helping all of us in various ways. they would always offer to help campaign if you needed to do that, whatever, it was more the day-to-day. you could go to them if you had a question about -- how can i work this bill through? whatever it may be. and they could tell you from experience what they had done, which almost always was very helpful. there was a lot of that back then. today, i don't know. before i left, it didn't really seem the same because they say it was hard just getting the women together. everybody is so busy, though. i don't know if you even notice that, but it just seems like life is a lot more hectic and busy than it used to be. technology was supposed to change that, but i guess it made it worse.

president, a mentor is of course by definition a teacher. so many of us have learned so much from him. much has been said about this and i am sure that over the years we will learn more and more about what senator mccain taught us. i would like to highlight two areas where i personally learned so much from john mccain. was how to fight for what you believed in. when you look at the arc of john mccain's life, his whole life, whether in the hanoi hilton or the senate lore, it was about fighting for what you believe in. pretty much everybody in this body has had a scrap with john mccain. when you did it, you had to be ready to fight with all you had intense. on the armed service, prior to the markup of the act, i would have a one-on-one meeting with him on some provisions he might not like i was trying to get in the bill. these were mostly behind closed doors battles, some of which got a little heated, fingers lost , voices raised, more than i won. it never was personal for john mccain. he was a warrior and he often said a fight not joined is a

mentoring a staff and trying to include women.i tried to promote them, you know, move them up every chance i got and actually a couple of them, you know, started out with me as interns and moved on up the ranks, and one of them became my -- we didn't call it -- we called it administrative assistant back then in d.c. and then i did have a chief of staff in the district who was a good friend that i had had for a while and so that's why i kept my chief of staff in the district. to me it was important that he be there and be the eyes and ears when i wasn't, but for my office up here we had women. and there are more of them now than there used to be. when we first came up here there weren't many women chief of staffs. so that has improved. >> we're coming up on the end of our time so we just wanted to ask a few retrospective questions. one is you retired in early 2013. why did you decide to retire from congress? >> when i first came here, again, nancy johnson said to me, you will know when it's time to retire, which was wise sage advic

in the navy, john exemplified heroism and bravery and in the senate he was a mentor to so many of us. he taught us how to work with leaders on the world stage, but then he taught us something just as important, and that is how to work with each other when we're here back at home. this past month my husband and i got to visit john and cindy at their ranch in arizona for one last time. even while battling brain cancer, he continued to be engaged in the issues of our time. he continued to have that signature mccain humor and that grit. my last memory of john, i had brought a few of his books with him, and he was getting tired, and he pointed to one sentence in one of the books, and he said to me, that, that's what matters. and the sentence was this: nothing in life is more liberating than to fight for a cause larger than yourself. and no one proved that more than john mccain. lindsey graham just gave beautiful remarks about his best friend, his best friend who had caught him so -- taught him so much, how to pick yourself up and be resilient when things go wrong, who taught him how to alw

and what was he like as a mentor? kofi annan was a lwa ys he like as a mentor?n i used to ask him, how could he really predict so fast what would eventually happen? he would say, well, what i do is not really prediction, what i do is intuition. i have the intuition that it may go this way and sometimes it doesn't but often it does, because i just put in my cocktail of analysis and the different elements people normally don't want to see. kofi annan was perceptive and he wanted a lwa ys annan was perceptive and he wanted always to get through as a chance, thatis always to get through as a chance, that is why he was very trusted. that was the main recipe of the way he behaved. we are right out of time, thank you so much for taking the time to speak to us about your colleague and friend and mentor, the former united nations secretary—general kofi annan. thank you so much watching on bbc world news today. this weekend brings predominantly cloudy skies for many and also a fairly humid fuel. that was certainly the case today for many, this photo sent in by a weather w

how does that affect mentoring? whatever kind of organization i have worked that, often times the problem is not necessary getting people in. it is how do you promote them, how do you advance them when they feel as though there will not be a them later on? it is often a vicious circle where folks do not in tour because -- mentor because they think folks will not stay there because i have other interest areas, or they don't stay or do not advance because they are not meant toward properly -- mentor to properly. >> i will touch on some of that and i'm sure the fellas have something to add the first thing that popped in my mind was intentionally and that we often think that we are but in practice are not intentional with making sure that -- to your last point about the pipeline issue, it came up a number of times in the survey results that there was a real challenge in having people of color in senior positions being able to be tracked to think tanks. when they are transitioning into think tanks, they are transitioning

." >> is there any sense that men may be fearful of mentoring women in this current climate? and, hayley, i know you have some thoughts on that. >> there is evidence of a backlash that is harmful to women because of these movements. twice as many male managers now feel uncomfortable alone with a woman, and the number of men who are uncomfortable mentoring women has more than tripled since the media coverage on sexual harassment. inclusion and diversity really need to be a first priority from the day one of starting a company, and we've seen this in the bay area with founders like stewart butterfield. he created that as an explicit priority from the top down from day one of slack, and he now has 43% of women and one of the most diverse workplaces in tech in the bay area. >> you know, you bring up some good examples of companies that are stepping up, but you take companies like ibm. we instituted equal pay for equal work in 1930, long before this was even a discussion point at any sort of legislative level. we brought on the first person with a disability in 1914. so i think it

it was project pull mentor assistance program. it's an extension program for college interns who were placed with city agencies within their career field. not only did they get to learn about their career interests, they also had a chance to gain leadership skills by mentoring and assisting high school students that were placed within the city departments. in 2017, our third expansion, we had our very first-ever project pull program at moccasin. so we were very excited about that. this year we have three interns, two high school and one college. this year we launched our project pull promise. i'm super proud of this program. this program we provided three incarcerated youth internship opportunities. the purpose of this program was to provide a promise that we give them a skill set, the knowledge that's necessary for them to better themselves out in the workplace. and how we did that, we had curriculum set up for them. we had mockin -- mo mock interviews, resume writing. this is first of is kind. i want to say thank you for trustin

because of your support, today president trump has nominated women and mentor federal courts. they are conservatives. we are working with the republican senate, despite opposition by democrats, we have been able to confirm nominees at a record rate, in 2017 we set a record, for the most court of appeals judges confirmed in a single year of any administration in american history. in fact, in the first as the years of the administration we are up to 26 circuit core confirmations as of the end of last week with a lot more work to go. overall the senate has now tofirmed 53 nominees lifetime appointments on the federal judiciary, you'll be pleased to know that we have also confirmed 65 united states attorneys who will stand firm upholdalled law -- and law across america. toant to give credit words -- where it is due. working with the senate, i think i'm up to eight tie-breaking votes. it's pretty close quarters in the senate these days. i have more to say about that in a minute. heartfeltant to say thanks for two people in particular and i hope you join me in showing your appreciat

when i learned that, i have reverse mentors.my reverse mentors told me they don't pick up print media ever. it's all on their mobile phone. this is how we get our news. it was a wake-up call for me and i realized different generations want to see the ceo in different ways. there is a younger generation that wants to see you as a human. they want to know what you feel about things. what do you think about things. some people in a different generation and sometimes different cultures do not want that. they want to see you as sitting in an ivory tower. i worked in germany for a while. there it was vital that the employee saw you as separated from them. so when i arrived and i said, let's break down these barriers. i want my office door open. yes, of course, people can walk past my office. they found it difficult to respect the ceo because the ceo shouldn't be that open and approachable. so you want to work out the cultures so that is why it is important to use all different media when you communicate. i do social media. i try to ha

. >> and related to the character that you have are the mentors that came into your life and changedour life and perspective other than a family member care about you and mentor you to help you develop your values and is always the most thankful to have people in my life that expect more of me than i do myself this is exactly how the lord works. >> i have an amazing mother is a single parent working 16 hours a day and to have the absolute example in the house when she was a nurses aide and cleaned the bedpans teen hours, three days a week. my mother was not necessarily as pleased with me except looking back on it. then i entered to say i love you but i will introduce you to a new type of motivation. and i learned the value of the switch. so my mentor comes along the next year it starts teaching me these incredible concepts having a job is a good thing but in this country eating jobs is a better thing. and making an income is great. but making a profit is super great. he started to sow the seeds if you are working for yourself or someone else, become incorporated work for yourself and
