LISA D. JOHNSON

CEO & GENERAL MANAGER, SEMINOLE ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE, TAMPA

Seminole Electric Cooperative provides wholesale services to nine electric distribution cooperatives serving about 1.8 million Floridians in 42 counties. Johnson has been CEO and general manager since 2013. Her first management role, she says, was serving as a “first-line maintenance supervisor at a petrochemical manufacturing facility running a 22-man pipefitting and welding crew. This job provided me with immeasurable experiences and a springboard for future management and leadership roles.”
