Conversations with: Mary Margaret Prange and Coco Wang: the importance & impact of mentorship

In this episode, Mary Margaret Prange, and Coco Wang from Calibre CPA share their insights and experiences of mentorship beyond formal structures. While corporate programs create valuable frameworks, some of the most meaningful mentorship happens informally—through proximity, shared experience, and what we call professional osmosis. This kind of organic mentorship can be especially powerful. It reduces isolation, encourages collaboration, and builds confidence in ways formal systems alone often cannot. In recognition of International Women’s Day, this conversation highlights that mentorship isn’t always assigned—sometimes it simply evolves. And when it does, its impact can shape not only individual careers, but entire workplace cultures.
