"To be successful in today's environment, energy companies need to embrace change, be flexible and use the evolving landscape of how workers work as a competitive advantage. They need to meet employees where they are and accept that the future of the workplace is going to look different than it did in previous years. Companies that have a clear purpose, a strong culture and that value their employees will be the ones that stand the test of time. "
