3 AI Skills to Land Your Job in ... The Green Energy Industry

Some people assume green energy is about policy, subsidies, and political will. In practice, the industry runs on physical hardware as demanding as any in heavy manufacturing. A wind turbine nacelle housing a gearbox that must perform reliably at 100 meters altitude in North Sea conditions for 25 years. A solar panel assembly sealed well enough to withstand thermal cycling, humidity, and UV exposure across decades of outdoor installation. A battery cell precise enough in its chemistry and construction to store grid-scale energy without degradation. These are tangible products; the energy transition does not happen without them. I spent more than 10 years selling to the green energy industry, working across its supply chain at the component and system level. Beyond that, I have coached candidates on Leland preparing for roles in this sector, several of whom have since been successfully hired. I understand what green energy companies require from their people; I also know which skills are shifting fast right now because of AI. This Tuesday session covers the green energy industry: one of the fastest-growing, most capital-intensive, and most consequential sectors in the global economy. We will discuss three specific AI skills that are changing what hiring managers expect, and how you can demonstrate them before you walk into an interview. If you want a career where the tangible product you help bring to market contributes to something larger than a balance sheet, this session is for you.

Part 1: Understand Your Goals and Tell Your Story

Are you tired of applying to 100 jobs and not hearing back? Maybe you’re nervous about reaching out to other people and talking about yourself. Perhaps you’ve heard about networking from a lot of people, but you’re skeptical about the way it can actually work for you. This workshop series is for you! As a career coach, I have distilled the targeted networking approach of finding jobs into a five-step process, each of which I will guide you through. Every three weeks, we will address another piece of the puzzle through an interactive workshop. In Part 1, we will: - Reflect and think really hard about what you want to do at this point in your career. Not what you think you can get, not what you'd be willing to settle for. We’re going to talk about what you actually really want out of your next job, what's important to you, and your WHY. - Learn to tell your story in an elevator pitch and rehearse this so that you are comfortable sharing your own story with people in as little as one minute. - Start revising your job search materials (resumes, cover letters, LinkedIn profile) to reflect this story. Part 2: Identify Your Target Organizations (May 29) Part 3: Build Your Network to Learn (June 19) Part 4: Maintain Your Network (July 10) Part 5: Use Your Network to Apply (July 31) By the end of the process, you will be fully prepared to use the targeted networking approach to find a job, and more importantly, you will be closer to a chosen job and career that helps you live a purposeful, fulfilling life. Each workshop will include exercises that we will work through together, and I will answer questions. While you can attend any workshop as a one-off, it can be very powerful to attend the entire five-workshop sequence. If you want more personalized support as you go through the job search process, sign up for 1-on-1 coaching sessions with me! This workshop is appropriate for: - Students and early-career professionals who are not sure how to get started with the internship or full-time job search - Mid-career professionals who are looking to pivot into another industry or find a job after a career gap - Anyone who wants to become more adept at networking and use it strategically

Your thoughts, interpretations, and mental patterns have a direct impact on how you perform at work. Many high-performing professionals experience patterns like overthinking, perfectionism, fear of failure, self-doubt, or harsh self-criticism, often without realizing how much these patterns influence decision-making, confidence, communication, and performance.

We’ll cover: • How thoughts influence emotions, behaviors, and performance outcomes • Common mental patterns experienced by high performers • Why the mind is wired to detect risk, pressure, and potential failure • A practical framework for questioning and reframing unhelpful thoughts • How awareness creates more intentional responses under pressure • Practical mindset shifts and habits that support stronger mental performance over time You’ll leave with practical tools to better manage your internal dialogue, improve resilience and decision-making, and approach your work with greater clarity, confidence, and intentionality. This session is designed for professionals who want to strengthen their mindset, improve performance, and build a healthier relationship with pressure, growth, and high expectations.
