1 Reflect Honestly

When faced with a career setback, take time for honest reflection. Analyze what went wrong and acknowledge your role in the outcome. This isn't about self-blame but about understanding the factors that contributed to the situation. Perhaps there were external circumstances such as funding cuts or unforeseen geological events that were out of your control. Or maybe there were areas where you could have prepared more thoroughly. By assessing these elements, you can learn valuable lessons that will help you in future geologic endeavors.

Undoubtedly, technological advances and now AI are a challenge in terms of adapting to the labour market. I came from a background of coloured pencils, tracing paper, pantographs, etc. I had my difficulties, but the companies I worked for provided excellent software training.

5 Diversify Experience

Consider diversifying your experience within the geology sector. If you've been focused on oil and gas, for example, explore opportunities in environmental geology or mining. This not only broadens your skill set but also opens up new career avenues. Diversification can also make you more resilient to industry fluctuations and increase your value as a professional geologist.

I've had the rare ‘luck’ or immense pleasure of varying my work, both inside and outside the mining industry. This has given me a wealth of knowledge and a broad, wide-ranging view of the whole process and its scope within our society. This has prepared me for technical and managerial challenges.
