The 32nd Women in Nuclear (WiN) Global Annual Conference, hosted by WiN UK, that aims to revolutionize the narrative surrounding the nuclear industry! Join us in this exciting venture as we embark on a mission together to transform perceptions, foster understanding, and secure the global future of nuclear power.
This year’s conference will take place at the Park Plaza Westminster Bridge.
Several members of the Bechtel team will be featured speakers at the conference:
Lisa Armstrong, Bechtel’s Chief Diversity & Inclusion Officer will speak on July 15th during the Impact of Mentoring panel.
This panel will explore the transformative power of mentoring in the nuclear sector. Featuring diverse mentoring relationships such as reverse mentoring, early careers, mid-career, and international mentoring.
Through discussions that illustrate the benefits of mentorship, and the sharing of valuable insights across different career stages and cultural contexts, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of how mentorship can shape the future of nuclear energy.
Judith Griffiths, Bechtel’s Regional Quality Manager for UK&I, will speak on July 14th during as session titled “The Uncomfortable Yes.”
Judith shares the touching story of her journey with the word ‘Yes’ and how life and experience has brought her to a place of greater empowerment and confidence.
Judith is the leader of Bechtels’ Women’s network in the UK, Women@Bechtel, and the work she is leading is having tangible impact on the careers and experiences of the women and allies around her.
New to the Nuclear Industry after more than a decade in rail, her story seeks to inspire others to lean in, know they are good enough and to take a risk when the rewards could be beyond your wildest expectations.
This session will touch on Judith’s journey and how the Women@Bechtel resource group is creating value and impact which attendees will hopefully be able to take away and implement.
Gemma Whittick, Bechtel’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Manager for Australia, will speak on July 14th during a session entitled “Inclusion, Belonging & Safety – The Critical Link.”
What if the key to improved safety performance was linked to Diversity and Inclusion?
We often say “Don’t walk by”, “Speak out when you see something unsafe”, “Stop the job” putting the onus on the individual to have the competence, courage and confidence to do so. Instead of pushing the onus on to the individual, are we reflecting enough on the role of the team leader, the project manager and the organization of fostering working environments that encourage everyone to feel safe to speak up?
In this presentation, Gemma will explore the four-stage model for Psychological Safety which begins with Inclusion and Belonging. Once a firm foundation of inclusion is set, it can lead to better critical thinking, innovation and challenge. This could be the key to empowering teams to reduce incident rates and move towards a more interdependent team dynamic with better safety performance. Leaders have a critical role to play in unlocking this potential – creating teams who feel psychologically safe through authentic, inclusive leadership. Additionally, by linking EDI to Safety, we are able to provide context and relevance to groups who may feel peripheral to the EDI conversation, helping us to fully include everyone.
