Session: ​The Great Reshuffle: The Role of Leadership and Culture in Recruiting and Retaining Top Talent

Colorado, and our country, have changed greatly over the past 18 months. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to cast a long shadow, changing how we live and work, but an increased awareness of social and economic justice also is changing how we view policy, politics, and the path forward. Bold predictions have been made of what the “new normal” may look like, but what will be the key take-aways from this historic period? What are the permanent shifts and what are simply the passing trends?  This panel of experts will unpack the lasting impacts from a political, social, and economic perspective and share thoughts of how we map our future.

Please provide additional resources (readings, articles, links, etc.) for your session topic.
What’s Your And? – John Garrett (thejohngarrett.com)

Have you attended The Energy Summit before? As a guest or panelist?
Have only attended the virtual sessions and looking forward to being in person!

Why do you think your panel topic is critical in the oil and natural gas industry at this time? 
The O&G industry is struggling to attract and retain top talent and as an industry we need to be able to proactively address these concerns in our employee base.  This is from the perspective of traditional office jobs to field jobs and will greatly impact our ability to successfully and safely operate.  The industry needs to demonstrate strides taken in talent management and highlight the value we add to our communities and refresh the pride of working in the energy industry.

How would you recommend that someone stays current on these issues, if they are interested or want to know more?
Be open to any and all sources of information.  It is easy to have blinders but continuous education and striving to see multiple viewpoints is critical for understanding the current drivers of motivation for employees.
