At Centrica Sherena is the Head of Communications and Engagement for the VOICE Network, a role through which she works to care for all colleagues, including female ethnic minority women. In this role she led the Network’s relaunch, creating a distinct platform as a forum for colleagues to support one another. This included promoting a ‘Hidden Figures’ event, which focused on allowing female ethnic minority colleagues to be heard across the organisation. Sherena has also brought a fresh perspective to conversations including gender diversity by producing the ‘Amplify’ newsletter to promote a message of inclusion, share best practices, and encourage readers to engage with the conversation. Sherena helped co-ordinate the inaugural Diversity and Inclusion event for Centrica’s Legal function. This event facilitated the discussion on how the future of the legal industry could be more inclusive, especially for women. This event, featured within industry magazines, committed 14 leading law-firms to initiatives providing more inclusive workplaces for employees.
