Energy for a Better Future: Our Talent and Culture in 2025
Published: May 7, 2026
How we’re developing the premier workforce
Our human resources team focuses on a talent and culture strategy aimed at increasing our organizational resilience to mitigate risks. Our strategy is only as strong as our leadership, capability and culture. We’re working to ensure our people and teams are at the right levels, with the right skills, in the right place, at the right time, at the best cost, and are continuously driving performance improvement and innovation. We’re committed to fostering an inclusive environment where every employee feels valued, supported and excited to come to work each day.
Workforce planning and development
Our workforce development initiatives focus on partnerships with high schools, technical and community colleges, universities and industry associations. These programs range from general promotion of energy and STEM careers to technical training programs that produce graduates aligned with our staffing needs.
How we’re building premier utility capability
We’re committed to equipping our employees with foundational training, professional development and meaningful career growth opportunities. In 2025, we continued to invest in our workforce through a robust suite of courses offered in our employee development catalog.
We also continued three development programs for high-potential talent:
- RISE is our emerging leader program for top high-potential individual contributors. In 2025, 112 employees engaged in self-assessments, training, site tours, volunteer activities and networking to prepare for their first leadership roles at Entergy.
- Our 12-month VOLT leadership program, completed by 23 mid-level leaders, combines leadership assessments, team building, executive engagement, mentoring and team project assignments to strengthen our leadership pipeline and support sustainable high levels of performance and company growth.
- Power Up was completed by 17 leaders during a 12-month journey that blended field visits, executive engagement, skills assessments and memorable experiences.
