School of Thought unveils Springboard advisory group
School of Thought has unveiled its new Springboard advisory group which will consist of 16–24-year-olds from various areas of automotive and is aimed at shaping the future of the organisation and improving connections with young people and those in education.
The group will act like a board of directors, sharing ideas, giving advice, and providing direction to help School of Thought connect with more people in better and smarter ways.

Julie Eley, co-founder of School of Thought, said: “Our mission is to raise the profile of the automotive industry and inform young people about the promising future it holds, emphasising innovation, technology, and opportunities.”
The aim is to have the Springboard advisory group up and running by the end of March, when its members will help review marketing materials, contribute to blogs and posts, and provide advice on engaging with young people. They can also become STEM ambassadors (if over 17) and represent their company at events.
School of Thought co-founder Dave Reece added: “Springboard members will gain valuable skills such as self-esteem, confidence, presentation skills, and public speaking.”
