SGA Natural Gas Association President & CEO Suzanne Ogle joined bestselling author and resilience expert Adam Markel for a powerful episode of the Change Proof podcast. Their conversation offers a candid look at the responsibilities of modern energy leadership from long-term strategic vision to supporting the people and systems behind essential infrastructure.
Suzanne shared why she pursued this role at SGA, what servant leadership looks like at scale and how her leadership philosophy has evolved from being a “driver” to a “multiplier.” She also reflects on the mindset that keeps her focused: service, clarity of purpose and showing up for people and industry, even in uncertain conditions.
