Duke Energy adds former Insight CEO Joyce Mullen to board

Mullen will assume roles on both the Audit Committee and the Operations and Nuclear Oversight Committee. Her tenure as CEO of Insight Enterprises was defined by a pivot toward AI-first solutions, a strategic shift that Duke Energy leadership hopes will inform the company’s own technological trajectory. Harry Sideris, president and CEO of Duke Energy, noted that Mullen’s experience in scaling business value through technology aligns with the utility’s push to manage infrastructure growth across its service territories.

Ted Craver, the independent chair of the board, emphasized that Mullen’s expertise in managing volatility will be critical as the company balances customer demands with large-scale industrial shifts. Before her time at Insight, Mullen spent over two decades at Dell Technologies, where she directed operations, supply chain management, and partner strategy. She also holds a seat on the board of The Toro Company and earned an MBA from Harvard Business School. Duke Energy currently manages 55,700 megawatts of capacity, serving millions of customers across six states with an ongoing focus on grid upgrades and energy modernization.
