Key Points

The Energy and Utilities (E&U) sector stands at a crossroads as the world moves toward a future shaped by diversity and inclusion. As an industry that is still close to its traditional roots and the core operations still close to their early foundations, it’s natural that they have been a little slower to adopt cultural changes such as Diversity & Inclusion. Despite progress, gender and cultural disparities persist, with only 32% of the global workforce in the energy industry constituting women and racial and ethnic minorities accounting for 22%.

In 2024, Energy and Utilities companies are in the midst of a rapidly evolving environment, marked by emerging technologies, evolving customer needs, geopolitical pressures, and heightened emphasis on achieving sustainability objectives. To effectively navigate this dynamic landscape and sustain competitiveness, companies within the sector must adopt diversity and inclusion across every facet of their operations.

Against this backdrop, we bring to you an exclusive LinkedIn live session on "Empowering Voices: Inspiring Inclusion in Energy Leadership." Join us to explore why inclusion is so important for energy leadership and how we can empower voices for inclusion in the industry.

Key Discussion points:

  • What does ‘Empowering Voices’ actually mean for inclusion?
  • Top challenges faced by leaders across the E&U sector to drive inclusion
  • How to involve employees across levels to inspire a culture of Diversity & Inclusion?
  • How can leaders in Energy &Utilities catalyze change by role modeling inclusion
  • What does the future hold for women in the energy sector?
