Building a Talented Workforce & Leadership

Attracting the Best Talent

To deliver reliable products and services that meet community needs, we depend on a skilled and diverse workforce. Our key partners in this effort are four-year colleges, community colleges and local and professional organizations that provide future talent with the skills needed to serve our customers, provide reliable electricity and support our energy transition.

Our people make us great and we look for the most qualified talent to bring expertise and different perspectives to our work.

Advancing & Supporting Leaders

When setting strategies and creating solutions, our leadership team is stronger when diverse perspectives are represented. A foundation for creating a strong pipeline of leaders includes creating career paths for advancement, exposure to leadership, and active mentorship and sponsorship. 

It is important for all employees to feel they have an opportunity to advance to their highest potential.
