Donna Duncan-Scott became Managing Director of JMMB in 1998 after the passing of Joan Duncan. She demitted the office of CEO in 2005 and assumed the position of Group Executive Director with responsibilities for Culture and Leadership Development. Currently she leads the design and development of programs and practices to deepen JMMB’s unique culture of being in the world of team members and clients and having their best interest at heart.
Donna initially wanted to be a social worker, but with her proficiency in Industrial Engineering, she started as an Industrial Engineer and later moved into Production Control at Goodyear. This sparked an interest in Operations Management, and as a result she pursued her MBA at the Richard Ivey School of Business at the University of Western Ontario in Canada. She went on to gain her Certified Financial Analyst (CFA) accreditation in 1999.
Donna lives by the motto, we were born to manifest the glory of God, it is not just in some of us, it is in every one of us.
