General Meeting: Oil & Gas & People – An Early Glance at 2017

ABSTRACT of Presentation

Oil prices are starting to creep up, and many people think the industry is finally poised for a modest recovery. What form this recovery will take, and what it will mean for the industry’s people, are still open questions.

This presentation will examine the fundamental economic and demographic factors that drive workforce decisions and look at how individuals can help position themselves for opportunity.

And, we will boldly go where no-one has gone before to ask what the Trump Effect is likely to be.
