According to how this 'Pate' was used in two companies I worked for in Germany, the 'Pate' excluded sponsoring, i.e. helping the 'trainee' to climb the ladder. The 'Pate' was there to help the 'trainee' when he/she got stuck/ needed help/asked for help. 'Trainees' here being junior managers who showed potention for top management positions.

"While executive leadership programs are common, the Cisco Center for Collaborative Leadership – known as "3C" – is unusual in how it implements such teachings. As part of the program, Neal's team helped design Cisco's Executive Action Learning Forum (E-ALF). In E-ALF, five to six teams of 10 promising executives work together to build the strategy and tactics for addressing crucial business issues that have $1 billion in potential revenue generation or cost-savings. In most cases, the work of the teams leads directly to major initiatives the company implements. Each program has at least one senior executive sponsor." http://dna-of-humancapital.blogspot.com/2010/08/measuring-ac...
