Transition Is Not the End. Straight Talk About Life (and) Work After Big Oil
From Corporate to Unstoppable
Mapping Your Next Move in the Age of AI
Join us for a powerful session in the Bee Suite where two alums of Big Energy tell it like it is. Katie Mehnert (ex-Shell, ex-BP) and Monica S.K. Krishnan (ex-Chevron) walked out of the biggest corporations in the world to build something on their own terms. Now, they're sharing the real talk on how to navigate the transition.
Career transitions are disorienting — even when you're the one who chose to leave. When you step out of the corporate machine, you suddenly have to translate decades of experience into a language that founders, boards, and new industries understand.
This session provides a clear framework for mapping your next move, identifying what you actually want (not just what looks good on paper), and using AI to uncover pathways you may not have considered.
You do not have to have it all figured out before you move. Clarity comes from action, not from waiting. AI (and the BOSS Program) can help you see the map before you start walking.
