The 2nd edition was themed, “Energy Career Planning and Opportunities”. It was held on Friday, October 14t the China Europe International Business School (CEIBS) auditorium, East Legon. The panelists, Ohemaa Adjei Andoh, Founder of Girls in Science and Technology (GIST), Michael Ohene Effah, Co-founder of LeadAfrique International, and Michael Bozumbil, CEO of Petrosol shared the best ways one can plan his/her career and the benefits of planning effectively.
They advised participants to consider taking whatever available opportunity they had been presented with, irrespective of their educational background or position in their bid to build their careers. They opened participants to numerous opportunities in the Energy sector.
Milicent Bruce, CEO of Kwamms Petroleum also shared her inspiring story of how she started as a security personnel for 12 years and gradually built her career into the energy sector with dedication and perseverance. Speaking in an interview, Lesley Arthur Asiedu, Founder of Energy Quest Foundation and CEO of CUBICA Energy, described this year’s seminar as successful and practical. She stated that the purpose of impacting others with knowledge and need to plan well to build Energy careers and develop leaders was achieved. She stated that students especially do not get the opportunity to have practical conversations with experts and industry leaders to better understand the industry and network. Thus, the energy career seminars provided such opportunities.
She again spoke about the new areas of Energy, which have been less explored in developing countries like Ghana. She directed participants to delve into those opportunities
