Your Team Doesn’t Need You to Predict the Future

from The Energy Detox Hosted by Witting Partners

Don't be like Miss Cleo. Sure, the people you lead may be anxious about the future. They may want answers, certainty, and reassurance. And you may be tempted to provide a picture of the future. But you don't know what will happen with M&A activity, commodity prices, or AI's impact. And your job isn't to predict the future for your team like a (fake) psychic with a (fake) Jamaican accent. Your job is to lead them into the future. And after a SHALE INSIGHT 2026 conference with so much focus on the future, some of the same principles shared during an Onterris-sponsored breakout session around emergency response planning can help you do just that.
