Simon Ross - Balancing Life and Leadership at SLB
Today, I sit down with Simon Ross, VP of Technology Delivery at Reservoir Performance, to uncover his journey from rural Scotland to a pivotal leadership role at SLB. Simon shares how his early life and upbringing in the countryside and the strong work ethic of his mother shaped his career. Discover how he chose engineering over art and how his unique blend of creativity and technical prowess laid a strong foundation for his future in the energy sector.
Join us as we explore Simon's career-defining moments, particularly his decision to move to Schlumberger Business Consulting (SBC) instead of pursuing an MBA or returning to operations. Influential mentors and rigorous training at INSEAD were instrumental in this transition, expanding his understanding of the oil field value chain and refining his leadership skills. This episode underscores the importance of mentorship and the value of exploring internal opportunities before making significant career leaps.
What does it take to balance a demanding role with personal well-being? Simon sheds light on his current responsibilities, from integrating supply chain to maintaining smooth operations, while also emphasizing the importance of a work-life balance. Hear personal anecdotes about his family life, hobbies, and the activities that keep him grounded—like rock climbing, skiing, and even Muay Thai. Wrapping up with insights from a guest on the reservoir performance team, this episode offers a holistic view of both the professional and personal aspects of leading in the energy industry. From career advice to personal wellness, this episode is packed with valuable insights for aspiring leaders and industry veterans alike.
