​Discussion Topic: Embracing Inclusivity and Diversity for High Performing Teams

Date: 25-09-24

Time: 8:00-10:30

Location: Skylark Golf and Country Club, Hampshire

​

Guest Speaker: Monica Collings

Monica Collings, an award-winning former Chief Executive in the energy retail sector turned portfolio non-executive, brings a wealth of broad experience that will greatly benefit those attending this event.

After leading Vattenfall’s UK energy retailer, Monica navigated the energy crisis at the helm of challenger brand So Energy, where she played a pivotal role in a merger with ESB Energy. Before these energy-focused roles, Monica’s commercial experience spanned property, automotive, and retail home improvement. She now successfully operates plurally across a portfolio of non-executive and board advisory roles. Having served as the only female Chief Executive of a domestic supplier, Monica was recently a UN Women UK delegate.

At this facilitated discussion, Monica shares her career journey through the lens of a female leader leveraging personal purpose to create inclusive cultures. She will share how her approach to developing a belonging strategy that embraces diversity at a senior leadership level, by being self-aware and challenging our own biases, can develop high-performing teams.
