ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Engineering is all around us, often in ways we don't even recognise. In this episode of the Engineering Talent Podcast, host Fayon Dixon is joined by Charlotte Wessels, a chemical engineer whose career has taken her from industrial plant operations and wastewater research to engineering policy and disability advocacy. Drawing on her experiences as a neurodivergent and disabled professional, Charlotte explores the value of different perspectives, the importance of creating workplaces where people can thrive, and why adaptability and problem-solving are at the heart of engineering. She also reflects on finding purpose beyond job titles, connecting people across disciplines, and making engineering more accessible to the next generation.
