“Resilience” is one of McClure’s favorite words. "Resilience has always been an important part of my life & this has informed all my work at GMP as CEO. It is the focus that the team & I are bringing now in the face of climate change, which is the biggest hardship of our time."
"The Right Person for the Times: Mari McClure and GMP," from @vermontbiz a good weekend read on Mari's Zero Outages Initiative to keep #vt powered up & what drives the GMP team. With the first winter storm in the forecast - this matters now more than ever. https://t.co/wznfRTytJ2
