Pilotlight matches up business experts with charities to share their expertise, bringing new perspectives, diverse skills and vast experience to bear on the challenges charities are facing.

They have a number of programmes open to organisations in Scotland:

1. Pilotlight 360: Over a 10 month period, four of the most senior and experienced Pilotlighters coach a charity leader and their board through the strategic challenges they face.
2. Pilotlight Direction: A programme that explores a specific strategic opportunity. Over eight weeks, six Pilotlighters assess its viability and establish how it can be reached.
3. Pilotlight Insight: A programme that provides insight on a specific business challenge. Over ten weeks, six Pilotlighters apply their analytical skills and expertise to explore an issue in depth and recommend solutions.
