During her decade with the Wolves and Lynx, including three years as chief people officer, Sianneh Mulbah has transformed the organization’s culture. Employee satisfaction has risen from 13 percent five years ago to 92 percent today.

Responding to the pandemic’s onset, Mulbah led a work-from-home transition that included consulting with ergonomic experts, offering mental health resources, and more. Following the murder of George Floyd, Mulbah developed initiatives for supporting employees, including temporary housing for employees outside downtown Minneapolis during the period of civil unrest.
