Elevator Pitch, Resume and Cover Letter – The Easy Way for Students You’ve worked so hard for an advanced degree from an exceptional school. Why aren’t you getting more traction in your job search? Most of us begin with job descriptions and try to fit our experience to meet them. What if you could start with you…and what you want. From there, it’s so much easier to express what you can do for an organization. And THAT, makes people listen. With 10 years coaching hundreds of high-achieving women, and two decades working in sales and marketing at the world’s largest beauty multi-nationals, Claire Steichen knows how to help people sell themselves. Claire has developed the I to the 4th Power* approach. By knowing what you bring to the table and how organizations work, you can express your contribution confidently and naturally. No stress. Join the Women in Energy program in this workshop where you will: • Get clear on your “superpower,” what it does for the organization, and how to leverage it • Understand your story, then use storytelling techniques to craft it so you get noticed • Use a step by step process to convert your story into elevator pitch, resume and cover letter *I to the 4th Power gains effectiveness from the sequencing of its elements: Impact, Influence, Initiative and Innovation. Beginning with yourself and working outward, you gain deep self-awareness. You learn to self-manage and communicate effectively. You are more confident in taking initiative and more resilient to the feedback that will make you grow as a leader. You are able to work autonomously to feel ultimate motivation. Registration is required. This event is geared towards current female students. Since space is limited, RSVPs will be accepted on a first-come basis until capacity is reached. A light breakfast will be provided. For more information contact: [email protected]

Plug-in electric vehicles (EVs) are reshaping the transportation energy landscape, providing a practical alternative to petroleum fuels for a growing number of applications. EV sales grew 55× in the past decade (2014–2024) and 6× since 2020, driven by technological progress enabled by policies to reduce transportation emissions as well as industrial plans motivated by strategic value of EVs for global competitiveness, jobs and geopolitics. In 2024, 22% of passenger cars sold globally were EVs and opportunities for EVs beyond on-road applications are growing, including solutions to electrify off-road vehicles, maritime and aviation. This Review updates and expands our 2020 assessment of the scientific literature and describes the current status and future projections of EV markets, charging infrastructures, vehicle–grid integration and supply chains in the USA. EV is the lowest-emission motorized on-road transportation option, with life-cycle emissions decreasing as electricity emissions continue to decrease. Charging infrastructure grew in line with EV adoption but providing ubiquitous reliable and convenient charging remains a challenge. EVs are reducing electricity costs in several US markets and coordinated EV charging can improve grid resilience and reduce electricity costs for all consumers. The current trajectory of technology improvement and industrial investments points to continued acceleration of EVs. Electric vehicles are increasingly adopted in the USA, with concurrent expansion of charging infrastructure and electricity demand. This Review details these trends and discusses their drivers and broader implications.
