Andrew John Melvill has been promoted to Advisor Level

[Frederic]

Congratulations @Andrew John Melvill on reaching the Advisor Level with Carnity Offroad Club!

We’re excited to see you grow further and guide others in mastering the art of off-roading in a safe and enjoyable way. 

🏅 Advisor Level

The Advisor Level is the cornerstone of Team Carnity’s structure. Even as you progress to higher ranks, you will always remain an Advisor first. This role is about constructively helping, supporting, and advising others with mutual respect as part of our multicultural family.

Advisors are encouraged to share ideas, ask questions, and exchange views at any level - always respectfully, professionally, and confidentially for internal use.

This is the stage where your biggest transformation begins - from skilled off-roader to capable leader.

 

📌 Leaders Lead Session

At this level, you’ll join the exclusive Leaders Lead sessions - an intensive program with homework and pre-drive preparation. These sessions, conducted by Crew members for a select few Advisors, cover:

1. Advanced Sand Reading & Planning – terrain assessment, level setting, and emergency exits.
2. Navigational Leadership – using software to manage and scale convoy leads.
3. Extreme Convoy Management – leading, recovering, and handling convoys in the toughest UAE deserts.

This is exclusive, invaluable training available only to Advisors.

 

🚙 Path to Expert Level

Once you’ve completed the three steps above, you’ll be eligible to start leading under supervision:

1. Minimum 2 partial leads in daytime Fewbie drives (under Expert/Marshal/Crew supervision).
2. Minimum 4 full Fewbie leads planned, posted, and executed (Expert/Marshal/Crew supervision).

You may take on additional partial or full leads if you’d like more time to build confidence.

Upon successfully completing this journey, you’ll qualify for Expert promotion - a milestone that marks the beginning of your leadership legacy.

I've said it before and i'll say it again: Pajero leads are fantastic leads ! 

All kidding aside, your genuine appetite for the desert clearly shines, and in combination with your humble and warm character it will result in a great Carnity lead very soon!

Looking forward to your future growth!!

A massive thanks to @Frederic and all of the senior carnity team. This honor is very humbling. Especially at this time of mourning. 

The carnity club has become my uae family, the level of learning and support available in the club is 2nd to none. I look forward to every weekend drive, not just for the driving but for the people! I hope that i can help keep the spirit of the club alive in the next stage of my off road journey. 

Once again a big thank you to everyone in the club who has been part of my growth over the last 2.5 years.
