Stakeholder engagement in the oil, gas, and energy sectors has evolved significantly over the decades. While many companies are currently using well-developed stakeholder engagement methods, the context of a just transition introduces new challenges and opportunities. By acknowledging existing strengths in stakeholder engagement while innovating to address gaps in current approaches, companies can help foster more equitable, inclusive, just, and sustainable engagement with all stakeholders throughout the transition process.
