​Bruce Power’s James Scongack wins Best Executive award

James Scongack (above), Bruce Power’s chief development officer and executive vice-president of operational services has been named a 2022 Best Executive award winner by Report on Business magazine.

The third annual Best Executive awards celebrate excellence among non-chief executive officer (CEO) leaders at the SVP, EVP and C-Suite (or equivalent) levels.

“I congratulate James (Scongack) on this well-deserved recognition for his leadership and contributions to Bruce Power and Ontario’s nuclear industry,” said Mike Rencheck, Bruce Power’s president and CEO. “We are powered by our people and are fortunate to have strong leaders, anchored by dedicated employees and contractors who are proud of the role we play in delivering clean, reliable nuclear power to the province and life-saving medical isotopes across the globe.

“James (Scongack) demonstrates an endless passion and drive to showcase Bruce Power’s leadership position in the energy sector, and a steadfast commitment to communities and people. I am extremely pleased he is being honoured with this award.”

Scongack leads a team of 1,000 in support of Ontario’s largest electricity generating site, Canada’s largest private-sector infrastructure project, and a global leader in medical isotope production. He also leads the company’s business development division, including its ambitious Net-Zero and ground-breaking medical isotope programs.

“As corporate Canada continues to adjust to the new realities of the 21st Century, some things remain true — namely, the importance of bold leadership,” said Dawn Calleja, editor of Report on Business. “The 50 winners of the 2022 Best Executive awards embody that quality and more as they steer their respective teams through the COVID-19 pandemic and a changing economy, all while keeping an eye on the well-being of their teams and overall companies.”

Winners of the Best Executive awards will be featured editorially in the May issue of Report on Business Magazine, available April 29, digitally, and April 30, in print. Winners will also share their experiences and advice at an event May 3. A full list of winners can be found here.
