SPE Women in Leadership Symposium: Exceeding Expectations

Leaders in the energy industry will share success stories and identify key factors that helped in achieving goals, sometimes referred to as: right opportunities, right jobs, right skills, right training, and right attitude.

In the past decade, an increasing number of organisations have been creating networks, mentoring programmes, coaching, and developing leadership skills for employees in the workplace. Today, women represent a significant portion of the educated talent pool in most of the developed and emerging world in a broad range of industries, lead countries and companies, and hold an unprecedented amount of power in their hands and minds. The oil industry is not an exception. From field technicians, engineers, and geologists to vice presidents and presidents, women are making huge contributions to this historically male-dominated industry.
