How we’re developing the premier workforce 
Our human resources team focuses on a talent and culture strategy aimed at increasing our organizational resilience to mitigate risks. Our strategy is only as strong as our leadership, capability and culture. We’re working to ensure our people and teams are at the right levels, with the right skills, in the right place, at the right time, at the best cost, and are continuously driving performance improvement and innovation. We’re committed to fostering an inclusive environment where every employee feels valued, supported and excited to come to work each day.

Workforce planning and development 
Our workforce development initiatives focus on partnerships with high schools, technical and community colleges, universities and industry associations. These programs range from general promotion of energy and STEM careers to technical training programs that produce graduates aligned with our staffing needs.

How we’re building premier utility capability 
We’re committed to equipping our employees with foundational training, professional development and meaningful career growth opportunities. In 2025, we continued to invest in our workforce through a robust suite of courses offered in our employee development catalog.

We also continued three development programs for high-potential talent:

• RISE is our emerging leader program for top high-potential individual contributors. In 2025, 112 employees engaged in self-assessments, training, site tours, volunteer activities and networking to prepare for their first leadership roles at Entergy.
• Our 12-month VOLT leadership program, completed by 23 mid-level leaders, combines leadership assessments, team building, executive engagement, mentoring and team project assignments to strengthen our leadership pipeline and support sustainable high levels of performance and company growth.
• Power Up was completed by 17 leaders during a 12-month journey that blended field visits, executive engagement, skills assessments and memorable experiences.

AI has quietly become the new Google search, and most brands haven’t fully noticed.

Millions of people now turn to AI platforms like ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini before they ever open a traditional search engine. In fact, 50% of consumers now choose AI over legacy search — and the results they see directly influence where they choose to spend their money, who they choose to work for, and which brands they choose to trust. That’s just the start: Almost all B2B buyers (94%) now use AI in purchasing, and more than 75% of global investors turn to AI systems to help with investment decisions.

But most brands have no idea how they are showing up in AI responses. Are you being surfaced at all? If you are, are you portrayed negatively? Is the representation accurate and fair?

We couldn’t find a tool to answer those questions well enough for our customers. So we built one.

“Every communications leader knows their latest media coverage. Most can tell you their search ranking. Almost none can tell you what AI says about their company today,” says Charlie Wilkie, chief executive officer of 3BL. “That gap is the problem we built this tool to close.”

Introducing 3BL’s AI Visibility Tracker, the first tool built specifically for brand reputation in AI. 

What It Does

Unlike most AI monitoring tools designed for product discovery, 3BL’s AI Visibility Tracker is built around reputation: how your brand is being perceived, discussed and characterized within AI platforms.

• A multidimensional view of AI visibility. We show you where your visibility is strong and where it’s weak — broken down by platform, topic and query intent.
   
• Competitive benchmarking for crucial context. Measure your brand’s visibility alongside named competitors on the topics you want to lead. 
   
• Questions that shape reputation. Our database includes thousands of queries tied to brand governance, reputation and trust, asked by real people and curated by corporate responsibility experts.

Not only that, but it also tracks true sentiment that tells the real story. While most sentiment trackers simply reflect positive and negative keywords, ours is smart enough to tell you how your brand is being discussed — even in AI responses that also mention problems — so we never miss the nuance in complex conversations.

“The whole discipline of PR was built on the idea that third-party credibility matters more than what you say about yourself. AI has just made that truer than it’s ever been,” Wilkie says. “But most brands still haven’t caught up.”

As AI continues to become the first stop for consumers, investors, employees and others, knowing where you stand isn’t optional. It’s essential.
