Joan Dunlop

I joined the WINS Board in 2026 as a Community Member and serve on the Governance and People Committee. I’m a Partner in a Calgary-based HR consulting firm, with over 18 years of experience advising organizations on privacy, information management and workplace matters. I also lead our Workplace Investigations team. I hold a BA and an LLB, as well as the CIAPP-Master designation and the Women in Leadership Certificate from Cornell University. Community involvement has always been important to me. My volunteer experience has included Rotary, Mentor Walks and serving on a Calgary Stampede subcommittee, along with other community initiatives over the years. Outside of work, I love spending time with my family, music - both playing and listening, travelling, and being in the mountains doing just about anything, at any time of year. The more I learned about WINS and the breadth of its work, the more excited I became about the opportunity to be involved. There’s something really special about an organization that can provide practical help when people need it while also creating opportunities for women and families to build skills, confidence and greater stability for the future. Calgary is home, and I’m incredibly grateful and proud to have the opportunity to contribute to an organization that makes such a difference in our community.
