location, profession, ethnicity and gender.
“We are extremely proud of Christie for her commitment to make a
positive impact on communities across Maryland,” said Stephen J.
Woerner, president and chief operating officer for BGE, and 2011
Leadership Maryland graduate. “Through the Leadership Maryland
program, she has continued to build on her strong set of leadership
and problem solving skills. As BGE’s first female chief safety
officer, she has demonstrated vision, passion and dedication to
responsible and effective leadership. Her commitment to BGE and to
her community is admirable and we commend her on the completion of
the Leadership Maryland program.”
As BGE’s vice president of support services, McMullen leads many
critical areas of the company, including training, security,
environmental management, performance assessment, fleet services,
and real estate and facilities. She is also BGE’s chief safety
officer, with oversight of the company’s safety and wellness
initiatives. She is a Six Sigma Black Belt and serves on the board
of the Downtown Management Association and the Center Plaza

McMullen earned a Bachelor of Science degree in electrical
engineering from the University of Maryland and a Master’s Degree

lives in Crofton with her husband and three sons.
McMullen joins several BGE executives who have completed the
Leadership Maryland program since inception in 1993.
“To be informed about statewide and regional issues, and having
the opportunity to engage and interact with leaders who put
themselves on the front line every day, has prepared these
individuals to be the catalyst for positive change in Maryland,”
said Leadership Maryland Board Chairman William B. Grant, Esq.,
C.F.P. '02, president and CEO, First United Bank & Trust.
“These are the leaders to watch now and in the future,” said
Renée M. Winsky, president and Chief Executive Officer, Leadership
Maryland. “Their experience confirms that the quality of leadership
affects the success of the solutions. Problems are solved when
committed, dynamic and informed leaders, with vision and passion,
are willing to take the risk to lead.”
