September 24 2020 - 7:00AM
DTE Energy (NYSE: DTE) today announced the appointment of Lynette
Dowler as vice president of Public Affairs, and president of the
DTE Foundation, effective October 16, 2020. Dowler succeeds Nancy
Moody, who is retiring after 32 years of service with DTE.
During her 37-year career at DTE, Dowler has served in senior
leadership roles across the organization, including director of
corporate safety and nuclear supply chain management; she also was
director of the company’s River Rouge and Trenton Channel Power
Plants. Dowler has served alongside Moody as part of DTE’s
succession planning process for more than three years.
In addition to her role at DTE, Dowler chairs the Monroe County
Community College Board of Trustees. She also serves on the boards
of The Parade Company and the Sphinx Organization. She is an active
volunteer with Selah’s Center of Hope, which supports homeless and
expectant women, and with New Hope Moldova, which works to
eliminate human trafficking.
“There’s a natural synergy between DTE’s aspiration to be a
force for growth in the communities where we live and serve, and my
personal commitment to support the least, last and lost,” said
Dowler. “At DTE, we serve with our energy, and we drive positive,
meaningful and equitable change through our far-reaching corporate
citizenship efforts. I look forward to continuing to advance these
efforts as we forge ahead on our mission of service.”
Moody, who joined DTE in 1988, spent much of her career with the
company leading its state government affairs office, which is
responsible for advancing the interests of our customers,
communities and company related to key policy initiatives; she
later served as director of DTE’s federal government affairs team
and managed the company’s Washington D.C. office. Moody serves with
several community organizations and has been honored twice as Child
Advocate of the Year by statewide nonprofit advocacy
organizations.
“It truly has been the honor of my lifetime to work beside
leaders, team members and community partners who share in an
unrelenting commitment to doing right by our customers – who are
also our friends, family members and neighbors,” said Moody. “As I
reflect on one chapter – my humbling and fulfilling experience at
DTE – and look forward to writing another, I know Lynette and our
exceptional, dedicated team will continue to lead not only with
their bright minds, but with their warm hearts as well. This gives
me great comfort and I look forward to seeing the collective impact
their efforts will make on our communities moving forward.”
“On behalf of the DTE Board and our team’s 10,000-plus
employees, I thank Nancy for the immeasurable positive impact she’s
made on our company, team members and communities during her nearly
32 years of service,” said Jerry Norcia, president and CEO, DTE
Energy. “Lynette is a highly respected and proven leader at DTE,
and she is well prepared to hit the ground running and drive our
work to build stronger, more vital communities going forward.”
