WiNTER K is a vital resource in Nutrien’s inclusive workplace
Nutrien’s Women in Non-Traditional Environments and Roles potash (WiNTER K) employee resource group’s vision is to “normalize women working in the mining industry in any role”. They help support, connect and promote women in technical or non-traditional roles and strive to be a trusted and influential advisor to human resources and the potash leadership team.
Recently, the WiNTER K group – with the support of the WiNTER conference subcommittee and sponsors – hosted a one-day conference in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan where members of the Employee Resource Group (ERG), site allies and leadership from across Nutrien’s potash business unit gathered to collaborate, ask questions and have open and honest conversations about any issues and barriers women are facing in the workplace.
“The WiNTER K conference is important to provide that collaboration portion of Culture of Care,” says Lyndsay Stobbs, WiNTER K Co-Chair and Project Manager, Rocanville Potash.
“I truly believe in the power of diverse teams, and I think the more we can diversify our teams it’s going to make us safer, more innovative and more creative as a group,” says Shannon Rhynold, GM Rocanville.
The attendees participated in a personal brand workshop where Brianne Schuetz, Senior Advisor, Learning and Development, defined what personal brand means, why it’s important, and how we respond when times are difficult reflects on our brand and has an impact on others. She also discussed the importance of continuing to have a growth mindset considering what we can learn from each interaction.
But wait, that’s not all that this outstanding group does!
