Also looking for job suggestions! I'd love recommendations for what *area* of jobs I should get into to have the most impact. I went back to school for Environmental Studies and my big epiphany is that people and leadership are the most important aspect.
I'm really great at communications: messaging, framing, (and positively re-framing), video and visual comms, distilling data into understandable bites, and more!
your communication skills would make you ideal for solar, wind, air source heat pumps, geothermal -- technologies and companies that don't need bro salespeople but instead need someone to patiently and clearly communicate the opportunities (and challenges) for "regular" folks who need a lot of hand holding to make their clean energy decisions.
I am looking for recommendations on the type of job I should be looking for. I'm a medical device engineer by education and experience, and I want to apply my skills to lowering carbon emissions and making communities more livable for everyone. Trouble is, the actual science and tech behind electrical and civil engineering don't interest me all that much. Do folks have any insight into how I could apply my engineering / investigational skills in another way?
