There is a variety of career‐supportive relationships that provide career guidance and psycho‐social support vital to career success. Each person's network contains a range of different types of relationships and contacts that serve different purposes. This paper clarifies some of these different types of relationships, the benefits each offers, and what they have to offer academic women. Formal mentoring, networking and peer support programmes are presented and discussed.
