Please join the Women in Energy initiative at the Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia SIPA for a student roundtable lunch featuring Claire Steichen, Founder of Clear Strategy Coaching.
For many in the energy sector, finding a mentor or role model can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. Without a sounding board or guide, it’s easy to feel isolated in leadership decisions and unsure of your next career move. Here’s the good news: You already have what it takes to lead—you just need the tools to unlock it. Being your own mentor isn’t just possible; it can be the most empowering career move you’ll ever make.
In this session, you’ll learn:
How to uncover your unique strengths so you can confidently guide yourself.
Practical strategies for building networks to find mentors and meet people who can connect you to the right job.
How to model the leadership qualities you admire.
You don’t need to wait for someone else to show you the way. Join this session to gain clarity, confidence, and tools to take charge of your growth and leadership journey.
