From Big Energy to Big Consulting
Masterclass with Geoffrey Cann
Energy is experiencing another wave of disruption. Mergers and acquisitions are taking place, leaving fewer opportunities for experienced professionals.
Refineries are closing and layoffs have occurred at BP, Chevron, Lyondell, and Phillips 66. More are coming.
If you've been considering leveraging your extensive experience designing, operating, and maintaining the world's energy infrastructure within a consulting company or even starting your own, now is the time to get the full picture as you plan your next move.
It's a completely different industry
Consulting can be an extremely rewarding and lucrative career pivot.
To make a successful jump, it's crucial to understand how firms are structured, how they make money, and how they'll measure your performance.
If you started with a firm after graduation, you've learned them along the way. But if you're looking to jump into the industry, these are things you haven't been exposed to. They're not on the job listing, and you won't be asked about them at the interview.
But you will have to know them in order to be successful. Otherwise, you risk getting chewed up and spit out by the consulting machine.
Geoffrey Cann has spent over 40 years in energy. He transitioned from Imperial Oil to Deloitte where he rapidly rose to become a partner, advising the largest energy companies in the world along the way.
He knows what it takes to adjust, and what must be learned - the things most consulting companies don't think about telling experienced professionals before they join.
Now, for the first time, he's sharing his expertise in a masterclass especially for other energy professionals looking to make a similar move.
As the industry continues to shift, set your career up for a successful pivot into consulting by attending this masterclass.
