The energy industry has historically been dominated by men. This has not only created a struggle for diverse voices seeking to become leaders within the energy sector, but it has been a detriment to the energy industry as a whole. Without diverse perspectives, the industry has been limited in its ability to come up with creative solutions to longstanding problems.

Linette Casey, Director of Power Systems Development at Siemens Energy, joined this episode of the Siemens Energy Podcast to talk about her experience as a woman working to transform the energy sector, and how a greater focus on diversity in recent years has opened up a world of possibilities in the quest to transition to more renewable energy sources.

Customers have come to demand greater social and environmental responsibility from energy producers, and Linette has been a leading voice in encouraging future energy leaders to rise to the occasion. The steadily growing range of perspectives within the next generation of energy leaders has the potential to create not only a more inclusive industry, but a more resilient and reliable energy supply chain. This diversity is not mere window dressing, but a vital asset in the renewable transition.
