  • Engaging Leadership in Energy Conversations
    2025/06/10
    Host Jay Mullin speaks with Animesh Roy, Energy Manager at Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU) about the critical shift in strategy he made to gain management support for energy and decarbonization initiatives. Animesh shares how he changed his approach to communicating with and engaging leadership. By securing an executive sponsor, refining communication to resonate with decision-makers, and leveraging stakeholder input, he created a system where leadership pulled energy projects forward rather than requiring him to push them uphill. The conversation explores how this transformation has positioned TMU as a leader in sustainability, offering valuable insights for energy managers looking to drive lasting change in their own organizations.

    Editor’s note: This episode was recorded in 2024, so the Sustainability Action Plan that Animesh mentioned was released in “April of this year” was released in April 2024.

  • Driving Change on the Ground
    2025/06/10
    Host Jay Mullin speaks with Senka Donches, Manager of Energy Efficiencies at Magna International, who shares how translating corporate leadership's strong energy management mandate into tangible results requires more than just commitment. While Magna’s leadership set ambitious net-zero targets, Senka discovered that success depends on building a robust support system at the plant level. By fostering a community of energy champions, encouraging knowledge sharing, and embedding energy goals into daily operations, Senka helped align decision-makers and empowered plant-level teams. As a result, Magna achieved a 5% year-over-year energy reduction and instilled a culture of continuous improvement across its Canadian facilities. Tune in for Senka’s insights on bridging corporate objectives with on-the-ground actions to drive lasting energy success.
