Imagine 2030: How about telling you stories from the future?

By ENGIE - 01 March 2019 - 17:57

Imagine 2030 is a vast in-house consultation process intended to liberate everyone’s energy and creativity to provide a positive vision of the future. More widely, this consultation lays the foundations of the Group’s new strategy and our purpose, focused on harmonious progress.
 

Imagine 2030 was an opportunity for all ENGIE’s Imaginative Builders to project themselves, just like futurists, to a day in 2030. How will we live tomorrow? How will we get around? What futures are desirable for the energy sector? You will find a selection of eight stories dreamed up by in-house teams. They explore new technologies, of course (driverless cars, virtual reality, renewable energies), and offer a collective vision of a humanistic and optimistic future. Turn up the sound, close your eyes, open your ears and immerse yourself in 2030. Enjoy listening!

To look ahead to 2030, Gaëlle Falleguerho, 42, Datasolution service pilot at ENGIE IT, drew direct inspiration from her core business, data. Improving working methods to serve humans better is one of her priorities. For Gaëlle, Imagine 2030 has much in common with the Imaginative Builders initiative: daring to suggest ideas, seeking to improve operational methods to combine innovation with sustainable development. Her hope for the future? Keep a positive frame of mind and believe in our ability to change things.

Régis Lavisse, « Proud of her »

Lavisse

 

 

 

 

 

 

Combining tomorrow’s societal problems with the personal, tangible reality of each individual, this is what guided Régis Lavisse when looking ahead to 2030. In charge of employee experience at ENGIE Digital, Régis, 44, enjoys the idea of associating concepts that might at first glance appear diametrically opposed, like Imaginative and Builder, which he sums up as "having your head in the stars and your feet on the ground". And while he doesn’t see the future through rose-coloured glasses, he’s determined to do his best to make it as pleasant as possible.
