The Future of the Landman Profession w/ Julie Woodard and Le'Ann Callihan

In this episode of The Landcast, the gang sits down with Julie Woodard, CPL, President of the American Association of Professional Landmen (AAPL), and Le'Ann Callihan, Executive Vice President and COO of AAPL and NAPE, for a wide-ranging conversation about the future of the land profession. Julie and Le’Ann discuss the challenge of attracting and training the next generation of land professionals, the growing opportunities for landmen across oil and gas, renewables, right-of-way, data centers, and other energy projects, and why strong relationships and a broad skill set still matter in an increasingly technological industry. They also pull back the curtain on AAPL’s work in advocacy, education, professional certification, disaster relief, NAPE, industry partnerships, and protecting the landman’s right to work.
