Andrea Goodson has served as the Manager of Public Affairs at Atmos Energy in Midland for five years. Goodson is an advocate in the company for investing time in your personal life and growth, and creating a culture of inclusiveness.
Goodson told Midland Times that she believes in surrounding herself with individuals who are different-minded and bring different skill sets to the workplace.
"I’m constantly challenging myself to learn more about everything and anything, as well as being respectful and open minded," she said.
According to Goodson, she believes that authenticity is a cornerstone of leadership, and she tells other female leaders that it is possible to be a strong leader without sacrificing who you are or how you treat others.
“As hard as it is sometimes, take time for yourself! You are useless to your family and career if you are stressed out and unhappy,” Goodson said.
Atmos Energy is the nation’s largest natural gas-only distributor. It serves more than three million distribution customers in over 1,400 communities across eight states, located primarily in the South.
