Inside the Playbook: Lola Plaku on The Mentorship Program Changing the Industry

In this clip of The Manager’s Playbook, Lola Plaku shares the vision and journey behind Girl Connected: a mentorship program built to empower women pursuing careers in the music industry.

Launched in 2018, Girl Connected is more than a mentorship initiative. It’s a platform for access, education, and career readiness. Lola unpacks how the program was designed to provide real-world experience, vet job candidates, and guide participants through the complexities of the music business.

She also reflects on success stories, the importance of building a strong vetting process, adapting to the realities of touring and COVID, and how the program continues to evolve.

Whether you're an aspiring executive, creative professional, or industry leader, this conversation is packed with insight on building platforms that truly move the culture forward.
