Yesterday was the last official meeting of the Statkraft Future Board 2023. The Future Board is a CEO sponsored initiative that we have been running over the past 14 months (for the first time) and acts like a junior shadow board. For those of you who have followed me on here for awhile, you know how much I value junior boards in organisations. It is a great way to engage young people in a real and authentic way as often they are not sitting in leader or decision making positions and are able to provide different insights/opinions to senior leaders through this channel. For us, this group has been made up of our current graduate trainees and young employees representing the different countries and business units of Statkraft. As this was our first year ever doing this, it was full of learnings and reflections and we spent most of yesterday doing just that. Over the year, the group worked on various topics, participated in important workshops and projects and represented Statkraft at both internal and external events across Europe. The vision for our board is to shape the future of Statkraft which is also a work in progress. So what makes a junior board work? Well you need a CEO who is willing to put in the time and effort to listen, follow up and allocate time to it and this is something Christian Rynning-Tønnesen did very well. Second you need to make sure there is real impact for the participants and the work they do so you dont fall into the PR trap. And lastly the learning needs to go both ways. For myself - being the initiative owner and go between with our CEO, this has been challenging and also a great learning experience for me. Key takeaways are that there are so many eloquent, passionate and clever young people in this company and sector which gives me hope for the future and that you need to remind yourself to walk in others shoes. Just because something seems obvious or easy to you (because you have done it 100x before), it could be the first time for someone else so be patient, open and create a safe environment for questions and discussion. And lastly this is a powerful proofpoint of how we grow and solve together here at Statkraft! Thank you to everyone in this group for your effort and commitment and of course for the wooden Thor`s hammer which you gifted us and will be handed down to the 2024 Future Board of Statkraft. For those not in the picture below, we missed you in person (teams doesnt always hit the same) Jarand Barstad Maria Isabel Bipop Bang Jensen Sofie Aandahl Børresen Laurens Wendt Tobias Kern Batool Akbar Carlotta Ferri #juniorboard #renewables #youngtalent #earlycareers #trainee #poweringthenextgen

Energy Queensland Chair Sarah Zeljko had the privilege of addressing industry leaders and directors at the recent Australian Institute of Company Directors Gold Medal Award Dinner, where she spoke about the urgency of the energy transition and its profound impact on our future. The central theme of Sarah’s speech was clear: "Energy is the new black." In a world where the energy landscape is rapidly evolving, it's going to take collective action to really move the dial. Sarah put it best when she said: “We all need to be running very fast, up a very big hill, and all in the same direction, to bring about a sustainable energy future”. Among the major takeaways from Sarah’s keynote address: * Unity and direction are paramount. Industry leaders must work together to bring about meaningful change. * We are living in a constantly evolving energy landscape: The renewable energy sector is growing at an incredible pace, so we need to think differently about electric vehicle charging, embrace innovation, and consider personal and industrial energy ecosystems. * Change should become our constant companion. Let's open our minds to new ideas and approaches to drive innovation, and get comfortable with being uncomfortable. * Time is of the essence, because we must make swift and informed decisions to accelerate progress while ensuring safety. “Our decisions today will shape the future for generations. It's a daunting but incredibly exciting privilege to lead this change,” Sarah said. “As leaders, we are uniquely positioned to create a sustainable, clean, and affordable energy future for our grandchildren and beyond. While the road ahead may be challenging, it's also filled with immense possibilities.” “So, let's buckle up and embark on this exciting journey together! We are in for quite a ride, but together, we can make a lasting impact.” #EnergyTransformation #Innovation #Leadership #AICDGoldMedal

This week, I had the honor of participating in a dialogue on competitiveness and growth with Nordic heads of government and representatives from each country’s business sector.    The Nordic region is recognized for its open democratic societies, long tradition of innovation, and business-friendly environment. The region has also been paving the way in the clean-energy sector, with more than half of primary energy usage already sourced from renewables, creating a noteworthy competitive advantage in sustainability.   The strength of the Nordic life-sciences industry is also remarkable, and being a part of it has certainly also contributed to our successful development as a company.    However, European competitiveness is challenged and the Nordics have an important voice in guiding region in the right direction.

Today we hosted a collaborative session with senior leaders representing industry, education, community and government as we discussed and defined our vision for skills and training in Gippsland regarding Clean Energy. Such valuable insights and discussion and a clear commitment from our regional leaders to ensure we are clear on our vision enabling us to collaboratively work together to achieve it. We embraced questions such as: * How do we ensure we are ready from a skills and training perspective to meet future workforce needs? * What do we define as the key success factors in our future transition and what is the role of skills and training? * What opportunities exist for further collaboration between industry, educational institutions, and government to support workforce development in the clean energy sector? * How can we continue to work together to define innovative solutions for the transition and ensure we can deliver place-based training for our future workforce? Thank you to all our valuable stakeholders and partners for your time today. We have much to do and today was a great example of what we can achieve together.
