As part of Shell’s Balance Network, Susannah founded and led the 50:50 Ops initiative to improve DEI in operations at their onshore and offshore facilities. Through this initiative, she held focus groups with women across operations, created a Facility GAP analysis survey to identify and track improvement actions around focus areas, gained buy-in from the VP of Upstream and Facility Managers, created “The Balance Badge” to reward facilities for good DEI performance, and led a committee focusing on broader improvement initiatives. Outside of Shell, Susannah helped kick start the Axis Network, Inclusive Offshore Working Group (IOWG), to promote Women’s inclusion and gender diversity across the energy industry more broadly. She used this network to conduct a cross-industry survey to develop an informed understanding of the micro inequalities.
