Case study: Empowering Tomorrow's Leaders: A Journey of Mentorship and Growth in the Transport Industry

In the world of transport, a Women in Transport (WiT) mentor shares her remarkable journey, which has become a shining example of empowerment through mentorship. With a deep commitment to fostering leadership potential, this transformative partnership has set a new standard for professional development and career advancement.

Maria Hoyos, a Senior Associate at TSA Management, has played a pivotal role in the mentoring program. Beginning her career as a contract administrator, she has ascended the ranks, gaining invaluable insights and skills along the way.

Her dedicated efforts in mentoring a rising star, a senior project development engineer named Lital Adler, have been instrumental in enhancing Lital's professional growth. Through personalised guidance and a focus on personal development, goal setting, and addressing issues related to confidence and imposter syndrome, Maria has supported Lital's journey toward realising her leadership potential.

As Lital Adler reflects, "I’ve received far more from this program than I initially thought possible. It’s a well-designed and organised initiative, offering a wealth of valuable resources. The program’s outcome is shaped by your effort, and I am appreciative of having an exceptional mentor who dedicated their time and energy to it."

The WiT mentoring program has not only empowered Lital but has also enabled Maria to make a tangible impact. By fostering trust and delivering ongoing support, she has instilled confidence in her mentee, ensuring her continued success in the transport industry.

Now, Maria Hoyos is embarking on a new phase in her professional journey. By participating in the CEO Shadow Program, she aims to refine her leadership skills, expand her industry network, and gain insights that can drive her career to new heights.

This inspiring journey stands as a testament to the profound positive change mentorship can bring. It symbolises the ongoing commitment to progress and empowerment in the transport sector, ushering in a new era of leadership and growth.

Maria succinctly sums it up, saying, "I find the program a fantastic and well-managed program. Lots of aids and lots of networking which make things easy. Well done on putting together this amazing tool that's helping lots of women in the industry."

Thanks Maria and Lital and all the best for your futures!
