Join industry experts in an interactive 90-minute interactive workshop to take a deep into workforce trends and analytics and identify strategies to reach a population that leads to retention while establishing a culture of psychological safety and belonging. 

The clean energy industry, regardless of technology, continues to find difficulty centered around not only identifying recruitment strategies, but retention of diverse workers. It is apparent that the industry will not meet the clean goals of 2035 unless strategies are identified and implemented to build trust, engage, educate, attract, and create social capital for underserved populations.

The following objectives will be met in this interactive session.
