Rafael Hincapie, Senior EOR Engineer, OMV and SPE Ambassador Lecturer delivered the third presentation “The career advice I wish I had when I was younger” – accentuating the importance of resilience in face of life and career challenges, being ready to step out of the comfort zone – to become a mentee and mentor others – leaving a “fingerprint” of our experience and knowledge through positive actions. The presentations offered an opportunity to the participants to reflect on the advice they would have given to younger selves and gain a new perspective.
