ABOUT MENTORING

Mentoring is a guided, reflective process. Through active questioning and discussion, mentees explore their assumptions, emotional responses, and decision-making. The process is confidential (with the exception of safeguarding requirements) and highly individualised, allowing each mentee to learn in their own context.

For aspiring pilots, mentoring includes industry insight from experienced professionals, helping them make informed decisions about their career path. For corporate mentees, it provides a safe space to explore real challenges and practice leadership thinking in real time.
