Leading Forward: Women Shaping the Futures of Equity
April 14, 2026
Leading systemic change while staying rooted in purpose, accountability and impact takes more than good intentions.
EJRC’s leadership panel, Leading Forward: Women Shaping the Futures of Equity, brings together accomplished women leaders for a candid conversation about their leadership journeys, the barriers they’ve navigated, and the concrete actions they’re taking to advance gender equity across Canada’s electricity sector.
This powerful dialogue will challenge assumptions and inspire new ways of leading. Join these leaders for this conversation:
Renée-Claude Turgeon CRIA, Chief People and Sustainability Officer, BBA Consultants
Gail Collins, VP People & Corporate Affairs, Newfoundland & Labrador Hydro
Sue Gagne, VP Human Resources, Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO)
Shelley Babin, Chief Operations Officer, Ontario Power Generation
This session will be featured at EHRC’s Agents of Change 2026, May 13–14 in Montreal, presented in collaboration with Women in Renewable Energy (WiRE)
