“Today we are talking about accelerating the clean energy transition, including government policy, lowering costs, and decarbonization...The new 2024 Energy Fact book (by BCSE & BNEF)… found that the energy transition is in full swing with ‘record breaking' public and private sector investments in clean power and renewable energies showing cost competitiveness even without government subsidies…But the two key pieces we're going to talk about today are… the grid and storage.” Joan Michelson on Electric Ladies Podcast Between market forces, government incentives and funding, and public-private partnerships, the transition to a net zero economy is in full swing and resilient, despite “headwinds” like covid, high interest rates, supply chain issues and political pressures, studies show. Where are we now? Listen to this webinar produced by ICWS and emceed/moderated by Electric Ladies host Joan Michelson, with top experts from Schneider Electric, Smart Electric Power Alliance, EcoEngineers and Long Duration Energy Storage Assn.. You'll hear about: Where we are in the energy transition and why clean energy is cost competitive now How we need to upgrade and reinvent the grid, the hub of the system The importance of energy storage, including long-duration energy storage and hydrogen What impact the Inflation Reduction Act, Infrastructure Investment Act and the CHIPS and Science Act have had – and will have going forward (or not). Plus, here's some insightful career advice, such as… “Think about your career as a business…Try to always have a mindset of kind of what I want first…What organizations do I want to work with? Where, what kind of responsibilities do I want to have? And maybe I do it through a traditional employer employee relationship, or maybe I just branch out on my own and just do it right? And I feel like women should feel empowered to do that and to be that kind of proactive thinking. And don't be afraid.” Lisa Jacobson on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes article about this new report here and more of her articles here too.

Our special guests today are Kathryn Meyer, Director of Admissions/Recruitment and Ashlee Treadway, Assistant Director of Admissions at the Bush School of Government & Public Service at Texas A&M University. Kathryn has been with the Bush School for 19 years, handling much of the School's recruitment marketing, communications, and events as well as overseeing the general admissions process for its on-campus degrees. Kathryn attends and presents at national conferences geared for graduate admissions professionals and is constantly learning to keep up in this fast-paced world. Kathryn is married, has two daughters attending Texas A&M, is a dedicated softball player, enjoys fire-pit time and her husband's cooking, and loves serving alongside the incredible Bush School students who are so dedicated to others. Ashlee has been with the Bush School for almost 6 years. She spent over four years as a student services program coordinator for the Office of Extended Education before transitioning into her current role working with on-campus students. Ashlee is heavily involved in recruitment communications and efficiency, and she processes all applications for the School's four on-campus degrees and National Security Affairs certificate. Ashlee is married, passionate about Aggie football and basketball, and loves animals (although she's allergic to them). Ashlee is honored to play a role, albeit small, as students start their journey as public servants. Today we'll be diving in to the recruitment process; traditionally what was done, how COVID affected that and will you be transitioning back to the traditional process or implement new ones moving forward. SARAH & TJ CHAT ABOUT Tell us a little bit about what Recruitment entails. How did you have to adapt to accommodate the social distancing due to COVID for your Recruiting? Since you weren't able to host ICWs in person, what did that look like? What was the response like from the prospective students? What was the engagement like for the Faculty? Did you run in to any hiccups? Or anything you wish you would have been able to do differently?
