The inaugural WNBA Business Executive Leadership Award of the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) was presented after the league's 2025 season. [1]
The award recognizes a WNBA team president, nominated by their organization, who demonstrated exceptional leadership in driving meaningful business transformation.
Each team submitted a business case for how the president, and their team, excelled across four key business transformation categories including people and culture, revenue generation, stakeholder engagement, and innovation. All submissions were reviewed and voted upon by a committee of league leadership, led by Chief Growth Officer Colie Edison.
