The Conversation the Energy Industry Can No Longer Avoid

It’s time to address the elephant in the room. The land profession is slipping into a quiet crisis, driven by a shrinking workforce, rising complexity, outdated compensation models, and a thinning pipeline of new talent. If the energy industry doesn’t adapt, operators and land professionals will face costly consequences.

Join a panel of respected land leaders, including Lester Zitkus, CPL, Michel Curry, CPL, Matt Smith, CPL, Julie Woodard, CPL, and Kyle Reynolds, CPL, for a gripping session outlining the realities of these challenges and why awareness is no longer an option. They’ll share data-backed findings on:

  • Why the land workforce is rapidly aging and shrinking
  • How outdated economic models are driving professionals out of the field
  • Where operator risk is already showing up
  • The shared values that both operators and land professionals agree on
  • Why collaboration is the best path forward

This is the conversation the energy industry has been avoiding but can’t afford to ignore. Watch this on-demand session, and be part of the solution.
