While senior engineer I mentored my colleagues during their induction into Schlumberger. This took the form of professional advice, sharpening technical understanding of the many processes involved and trying to instill a service mindset. I acted as a go between with my engineers and management, dealing with issues of diversity, inclusivity, advancement and general growth. Started informal outside of work gathering to foster a more relaxed atmosphere in which to share experiences, best practices, and an esprit de corps. I lead the loss prevention team (focusing of QHSE issues) was senior supervisory engineer and dealt heavily with process improvement.
