“Day to day through POWERful Women, I speak to people juggling work responsibilities with their career ambitions and their commitments at home – and that’s tough. As a single parent to two teenagers, one home educated due to special needs, I know the stresses. Add to the mix that life in the energy sector, where I’ve worked for 25 years, is never dull and throw in a pandemic – and it becomes clear that mental health is more important than ever.”
To coincide with COP25 in Madrid we are sharing once again this brilliant and insightful blog from Joyce Lee, the Policy and Operations Director at GWEC on how better gender balance is central to meeting the energy challenges of the future. POWERful Women worked with Joyce and her GWEC colleagues in October to host their ‘Women in Wind’ European study tour, part of their Global Leadership Program.
