The present paper is a continuation of the article which was published in the previous edition of Polish Technical Review. It is a story about Prof. Piotr Wolański from Warsaw University of Technology, a visionary who - apart from the problems concerning combustion, explosions and space drives - was able to give the positive energy and passion to the students as well as his collaborators all over the world.

The authoress of paper concentrates her attention on the motivating aspect, being perceived from the viewpoint of Professor as well as his pupils and also, she gives the floor to the mentor himself.
