Last week, I walked out as CEO. What happened in between changed my life.<br \/>As we recently announced, I\u2019m calling time on my innings at ENGIE AU,\u201d Hyde wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Related article: <a title=\"Engie acquires full ownership of Hazelwood BESS\" href=\"https:\/\/esdnews.com.au\/engie-acquires-full-ownership-of-hazelwood-bess\/\" rel=\"bookmark nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Engie acquires full ownership of Hazelwood BESS<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cStarting in an outsourced call centre and finishing as CEO has given me a rare vantage point. I\u2019ve seen the business from every angle\u2014the frontline, the engine room, the middle layers that hold everything together. I\u2019ve seen how the energy market works in theory, and how it behaves in practice. And I\u2019ve seen how much it depends on the people who show up every day to make it work.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf there\u2019s one thing this journey has taught me, it\u2019s that nothing meaningful is built alone. I\u2019ve been incredibly fortunate to have mentors and sponsors who backed, challenged and shaped me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe culture we built wasn\u2019t mine\u2014it was a melting pot created by hundreds of people bringing their strengths, quirks, values and energy. Leadership is custodial. I was simply fortunate to play my part for a period of time, and I look forward to seeing how the people of ENGIE in Australia continue to shape that culture and contribute to the energy transition long after I\u2019ve finished.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The company has not yet announced a successor, nor has Hyde confirmed his next move.<\/p>\n<p>Related article: <a title=\"Stacks on: ENGIE upgrades Pelican Point Power Station in SA\" href=\"https:\/\/esdnews.com.au\/engie-upgrades-pelican-point-power-station-in-sa\/\" rel=\"bookmark nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Stacks on: ENGIE upgrades Pelican Point Power Station in SA<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is an immense understatement to say that I\u2019m grateful for the opportunities I\u2019ve had, and I\u2019m energised for what comes next.
