One of the biggest challenges facing the energy and utilities industry is its image problem with a younger generation who expect their employers’ values to align more closely with their own. An aging workforce with skills tied to old processes and technologies may struggle to keep up with the pace of change unless the industry receives a much-needed talent refresh.
