Skewber Tracy is joined in the Skewdio by Kate Cassalli, Head of Energy Operations at FICE. In their Skewdio session, they delve into the theme of Women in Engineering. From getting into the industry, to her leadership journey, to her hopes for gender equity; Kate shares valuable insights into a female perspective on a still heavily male dominated industry.

The military and the utilities sector are not two walks of life you would immediately think go hand in hand... and yet this Armed Forces Day, Skewb looks at why there are more people making the transition than you think. We sit down with former Royal Engineer and Cadent's Director of the East Midlands network, Richard Sansom, and former Royal Engineer and Skewber, Darren Hardy, to talk about life in the military, their journeys into the utilities sector and the supports companies can offer people transitioning into civilian life.

For the first time in Skewb history, we took the podcast studio out of the office and on the road! Our first episode of 'Skewdio on Tour' is called the "Culture Chronicles" - where we deep dive into what drives our Skewbers, what their values are and their hopes for the future.
