What was your route to the top?

Melissa Sladden, Senior Counsel of the Downstream & Chemicals Litigation Management Group with Chevron Products Co.

A key factor in my career success thus far has been my willingness to give back and volunteer within my community. From the beginning of my career, I’ve always participated in pro bono work, been a mentor to law students, college students and high school students. I served on the Charles Houston Bar Association board for 10 years before I became its president. By giving back, I have received more than I gave because I was able to build strong relationships, identify mentors and sponsors and sharpen my skills as an attorney and advocate—all of which enabled me to obtain the role at Chevron.
