The culmination of a nine-month mentoring journey with The Aleto Foundation and Aston Martin Aramco.
As we celebrated the progress and achievements of the class of 2023-24 with a graduation ceremony at our state-of-the-art Technology Campus and a behind-the-scenes tour of the Aston Martin Aramco garage at the British Grand Prix, we spoke to one of our mentees, Shontay Anderson, who reflected on her experience of the programme and how it's shaped her future...
The Mentorship Message📢📝
You will never meet a pilot who trains himself, every pilot is trained by able pilots, and even after graduating from aviation school, you are still a first officer, you are not a captain, and you now fly with a captain for several hours before becoming a captain.
You will never meet a high flyer in every area of life who has no mentor. You will never come across a professor in any discipline who was not a student of another, so in every field of ones life, tutelage and apprentices are the order of the day. Without mentors, you have no ladder and without a ladder your access to the top is almost impossible.
Mentors are the ladder that you climb to the top, without a mentor you have no ladder and without a ladder, your access to the top remains a daydream.
Those flying today is as a reason of feathers developed from fathers (Mentor). You will never find an eagle in the sky who has not been fathered by a father eagle, there is nothing you want to do or venture into that somebody has not done before, Many have passed on before you.
And you will never play your role well without a role model, role models are important influences that can help shape a person's future, they help you achieve what years of struggle may never bring to pass. No lazy man can follow in the footsteps of a giant, that's why there are few giants.
Those who don't regard the steps on become victim and vulnerable to all kinds of things, struggling to rise with all kinds of skills but there is no way up. If you ever want to get somewhere quickly, identity a Mentor, no matter how intelligent you are, without a ladder, your access to the top is impossible.
