Amy: \nShare with our readers something most people don\u2019t know about you\n<\/p>\n

Cheryl:<\/strong>\nMost people don\u2019t know that I\u2019m a twin and have a twin brother. When we were born, my mother did not know she was having twins. I was under 2 pounds and my brother was 51\/2 pounds. I sometimes think about being premature and so small back then – and how lucky I am to be alive! I never take that for granted.<\/p>\n

I also know that having a twin brother helped me growing up. We were (and still are) best friends. And I truly believe that relationship made it easier for me to have a successful career in a male-dominated industry. \n<\/p>

Early on, I got used to working around double standards. On the night of our high school graduation, my brother could stay out all night with the other kids, but I had an 11 o\u2019clock curfew. Talk about double standards. I also learned the differences in how people treat men versus women growing up, and again, it made me stronger and made me more aware. It also made me very conscious of how I treat people. First off, I always make sure I treat my daughter equal to my sons. And it also translates to the people I work with – when a woman comes into the room, even if there are empty chairs at a table, there’s always one who goes to sit in the chairs along the wall, and I hone in on that every time I see it, and I ask them, “Can you please move to the table?” I really focus on that to make sure that we’re treating everybody as equal. \n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Amy: Share how your career path positioned you to be where you are today.\n\n<\/p>\n

Cheryl:<\/strong>\nI have stayed with the same company my entire career, which a lot of people can\u2019t say these days. Originally, I was the fourth person hired at Security APL. That company has been through two mergers, and I\u2019ve held a lot of different positions there. I learned how to do a lot, and mostly how to contribute where the help was needed the most. Growing up in a company like ours – a technology vendor and strategic partner to so many firms \u2013 I can leverage my relationship building, my network and my people skills. Early on, I got very comfortable meeting with clients, helping to set strategic direction, and that’s really helped me from a career perspective in what I do now. \n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Amy: Who is one of your most influential mentors and why?\n\n<\/p>\n

Cheryl:<\/strong>\nOne of my most influential mentors is Jim Seuffert. I\u2019m very fortunate to know him, and one of the best pieces of advice he\u2019s ever given me, which I would also give to other women coming into this industry, is that in order to be successful, you need to create a personal advisory board. Having a group of people with different talents can really help your career. It\u2019s also important that you tell people that you\u2019d like them to be on your personal advisory board. Making time to meet with them and cultivating a group that can help you with varying problems you\u2019ll encounter is crucial. \n<\/p>

Networking is so important – having a group of peers that you can meet periodically to bounce ideas off and gain different perspectives is critical. I meet quarterly with women who have experienced a lot of the same things I have \u2013 we\u2019ve grown up in this industry together, and for every woman, it\u2019s important to pick and choose a few women you know you can turn to and help each other out. Having that support system is really how you thrive and grow.\n\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
