Show Notes

Pamela Largue speaks to Katie Jackson, Executive Vice President, Acquisition & Divestment and New Business Development at Shell and new chair of POWERful WOMEN about how to ensure gender diversity and inclusion within a rapidly changing energy sector. Jackson also shares candid insights on why women in senior roles can help build stronger businesses that are more adaptable to changing markets on the journey to Net Zero.

POWERful Women is a professional initiative that seeks to promote the growth and leadership development of women across the energy sector.

Every year in Spring POWERful Women, in partnership with PwC UK, reports on gender diversity at the top of the UK energy industry. The  statistics reflect the number of women in board and executive director roles in the top 80 energy companies, focussing on the most significant employers in the UK energy industry.

POWERful Women aims to see 30% of executive board roles and 40% of middle management roles filled by women by 2030.
