Leadership for Geotechnical Engineers & Geologists

How a foundation in geotechnical engineering can explode into a world of possibilities

Annette Woods

In these times of constant change, disruption and complexity, we need to focus on providing our teams and our stakeholders with clarity and empowerment. Regardless of your field of technical expertise or your position title, your working life will call on you to be a leader, to be an advocate for inclusion, to keep people safe, and to update and grow your capabilities and the capabilities of those around you.

This presentation and discussion will explore four key aspects of leadership and career progression: safety, staff development, communication, and self-development; interspersed with geotechnical and digital technology anecdotes from across the projects and investigations that Annette has led. Learn techniques and tools to support your own leadership journey and to build high performing teams.
