We are pleased to support Denise Dodds’ candidacy for the Geothermal Rising Board of Directors. Denise brings a strong combination of policy experience, industry perspective, and relationship-based engagement.
Based in Calgary, Alberta, Denise is the Indigenous Affairs Manager at SLB, a global energy technology company with an active role in geothermal development. Her work at SLB connects industry, communities, government, and energy-sector partnerships. This perspective is especially valuable as Geothermal Rising continues to support geothermal growth across North America and strengthen connections between technology, development, policy, and community engagement.
She currently serves as the Canadian Geothermal Rising Policy Co-Chair and is a member of the Geothermal Rising Indigenous Working Group. Denise is Métis and has more than 15 years of experience in Aboriginal and stakeholder relations, with extensive background in government relations, agreement negotiations, strategic planning, business development, employment and trades training, and project applications involving environmental and socio-economic impact assessment.
Her experience across industry, policy, Indigenous engagement, workforce development, and government relations would make her a valuable addition to the Geothermal Rising Board.

Denise Dodds is a human powerhouse who builds relationships on many levels: technical, personal, strategic, academic, and particularly as related to her deep belief in the value of community. Active, smart as hell, fearless, and kind, Denise is a champion of righting wrongs by bringing people together, as we experienced at WGC2026. You can be sure that she would be a vibrant and involved GRC Board Member.
I believe in the work Denis has been doing to support the GRC objectives. She also has been a great advocte for the First Nation drive in renewable energy. She has drive and energy to be very impactful in this role.
Denise is exceptional at organising networks and providing vital information and funding. With her professional expertise and strong cultural fit, she is uniquely positioned to drive geothermal development to its next milestone.
I support Denise
Denise rocks!
Go Denise! Mahalo nui for stepping up to serve.
An influential leader dedicated to empowering and advancing Indigenous communities.

Denise Dodds provides a balance between the economics of commercial geothermal and ensuring the respect and inclusion of indigenous people protocols.
