PfW was delighted to be part of International Energy Week. We hosted a session entitled “Let’s Scrap EDI” with panellists Martin Pibworth, Melissa Stark, FEI, and Lee Salisbury, moderated by Monica Collings OBE.

Key Takeaways

01Authenticity and lived experiences enable people-first thinking. EDI is not optional but business-essential to secure and retain the best talent in a rapidly evolving energy sector.

02 Leaders serve as role models and wield significant influence in championing best practice. It is therefore essential that they actively create space for, and genuinely listen to, all voices.

03 Energy is a global industry, and while companies adopt broad EDI objectives, these ambitions must be carefully adapted to reflect the distinct challenges and realities of local contexts.

04 Provide women with opportunities to demonstrate their capabilities through measurable outcomes, rather than through opportunities constrained by rigid time demands.
