As the lead for Primera’s Power Distribution group, Dennis Odegaard maximizes his team’s talents through his collaborative leadership style. “He spent years working in the customer relations side for utilities, if he learned anything it’s that truly listening to people is key to having a successful relationship. He take that with the wherever he go, and he value the ideas and opinions of those around him, including the team,” he explains. Dennis’ success stems from nearly 20 years of electric utility experience specializing in customer relations, project management, and distribution design and operations.
Dennis studied Electrical Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and later also earned a Master of Business Administration degree from DePaul University. Prior to joining Primera, he served as a consultant for large utilities and spent 18 years at ComEd working his way up and ultimately managing the Large Customer Services team. His extensive technical knowledge in outage management and restoration, and reliability systems and processes, coupled with his project and team management experience, positions Dennis to keep Primera’s growth momentum moving forward.
