Lynn Jurich co-founded Sunrun Inc. and served as CEO until August 2021, when she transitioned to Co-Executive Chair. She holds a B.S. in Science, Technology, and Society from Stanford and an MBA from the Stanford Graduate School of Business. Under her leadership, Sunrun became a leader in solar energy, growing rapidly even through difficult market conditions. In 2020, she saw her compensation peak at about $5.4 million, driven largely by stock options and bonuses linked to performance metrics. Notably, Jurich's insider trading activity showed a significant spike, peaking at $271 million in early 2021 before settling around $75 million in recent months, indicating both confidence and fluctuations in the company's value. Also, when she stepped down as CEO, it was a smooth transition with no disagreements around the change, reflecting her strong leadership style.
