The bulk of the electric cooperative workforce has traditionally been filled by men due to the nature of the work that co-ops do. But over time, women have been stepping into more and more jobs across the industry spectrum.

This episode is sponsored by CoBank.

In honor of Women’s History Month, NRECA Senior Editor-Writer Victoria Rocha joins us to share the perspectives from several women making strides and taking on leadership positions in the co-op world: Amanda Opp of Flathead Electric Cooperative in Montana, Libby Calnon of Hood River Electric Cooperative in Oregon and Janet Rehberg of Tri-County Electric Cooperative in Texas.
