It’s a universal truth of the human condition: we grow, we adapt and change. Each stage requires passage from the before to the now and sometimes to the unknown. Our passages are guided by people like parents, family, teachers, coaches, colleagues and bosses who help us understand external events and process them internally in supportive, positive ways. That’s the theme of CS Week 2023’s Women in Utilities, Passages: Navigating Change in Positive Ways. Stay tuned for three hour-long webinars, tentatively scheduled for this February, March and April, from utility colleagues who have passage stories to share. Our presenters will focus on topics like the role of mentoring/coaching, the career/growth opportunities that passages offer, and how resiliency and ‘balcony people’ can help us overcome failure, transforming it into personal renewal. Their perspectives will be synthesized into a panel discussion for Thursday’s Women in Utilities’ Workshop at Conference 47, with a chance to reflect on and share your own passages as well.
