Global President's Message

February 2025

It’s hard to believe we’re already halfway through the first quarter of the year! For many of our chapters, the past few weeks have been marked by cold and snowy days—making it the perfect time to warm up your connections and get involved with your local WEN community. Whether it’s a networking event, an educational session, or a social gathering, now is a great opportunity to engage with fellow members and expand your network.

Speaking of connections, many of our chapters have welcomed new board members this year, bringing fresh ideas and exciting events to the calendar. Be sure to check WEN’s events page regularly—whether you’re looking for in-person opportunities near you or a virtual event you can join from anywhere, there’s always something happening. If you’re traveling, consider attending a local chapter event in your destination city. It’s a fantastic way to meet new industry professionals and strengthen your WEN network beyond your home chapter.

Join us on March 20 at 1:00 pm ET for WEN Global’s Women’s History Month Panel Discussion, sponsored by Liskow. Moderated by 2020 WEN Global President Jana Grauberger, this engaging discussion will explore how the workplace is evolving for women. Panelists Tamica Jackson (ONE Gas), Janet Black (Deloitte) and Sara Pepin (EPRI) will share insights on flexible work arrangements, pay equity initiatives, and leadership development. They’ll also discuss navigating career pivots, seizing leadership opportunities, and practical ways women can uplift and advocate for each other in their careers.

Don’t miss this opportunity to engage with industry experts and fellow members on topics that shape the future of women in energy. Register today and mark your calendar!

As we move into spring, let’s continue building connections, supporting each other, and making the most of all that WEN has to offer. See you at an upcoming event!
