What Sue-anne’s mentee’s have said:

I received professional and personal mentorship from Sue-anne Munckton for nine months through the Mentoring Women in Aviation program. Sue-anne went above and beyond the program’s scope, supporting me through significant career milestones and inspiring me to achieve anything I set my mind to. Under her guidance, I gained critical management skills, confidence, resilience, and a network of resources.
