Starting a new job while pregnant - Lauren’s Aula Energy story

Aula Energy is a new business, launched a little over a year ago. It is a Macquarie Asset Management portfolio company established to focus on onshore renewables in Australia and New Zealand. As a startup business, we have had a lot of new things to build from day one to set this business up for success. It’s been a fantastic journey to the see the team we’ve built establish the Purpose, Vision, and Values of Aula. These are foundational pillars of any business that sets the tone for how we operate internally and show up in the external environment. One of the proudest opportunities l have had as CEO over the last 12 months was to be part of the recruitment process of nearly all the employees we’ve brought on board. In selecting the team, one key thing l was committed to, with the strong support of the shareholders, was to apply gender equity in every process we undertook with one goal: to get the best talent we could into this new business. The Chief People Officer and I made a commitment to let our actions speak louder than words in establishing this team. In a typically male-dominated energy sector, we saw no excuses for us not making a difference in gender equity outcomes here at Aula from day one. This goal was in focus not only for us to do what is right but to create the best, most inclusive culture we could. Ensuring we actively removed any unconscious biases in the process was an important part of that step. That said, the recruitment was only part one. We had achieved our goal on launch of having gender equity in our new team across both the leadership team and the broader team. The second key aspect was to create an environment of care, respect, and trust so people felt included in the Aula team and each individual could be the best version of themselves, bringing their lens and experience to making us the best enterprise we could be. As time passes, l am extremely proud each day when we meet as a team or meet with external stakeholders in most situations, we have balanced gender representation, allowing Aula to be the best version of itself by creating a culture built around Care, Collaboration, and Performance. I will stay extremely active on this equity message as the CEO to ensure this is a legacy for Aula as a business for many years to come, as we owe it to ourselves and future generations to what is not only right but delivers better outcomes.
