Sukhi Sahni
Sukhi Sahni is a global communications leader with more than two decades of experience advising CEOs and executive teams across Fortune 100 companies and mission-driven organizations. Recognized for shaping human-first enterprise narratives, she has led strategic communications initiatives at Wells Fargo, Capital One, Sprint Nextel, and the Carnegie Endowment.
A student of modern-day storytelling, Sukhi is widely regarded for her ability to transform brands and turn vision into actionable narratives with measurable results.
Early in her career, Sukhi was part of the transformation team at Sprint Nextel during one of the largest telecom mergers in U.S. history. She helped bridge two distinct corporate cultures while navigating a fast-changing communications landscape, just as the 2007 launch of the first Apple iPhone was beginning to redefine how people connect, consume, and share information. She continued this momentum at Capital One during its transformation into a tech-first bank, helping launch a portfolio of credit products that positioned the company as a category leader. Most recently at Wells Fargo, Sukhi has been instrumental in reshaping the company’s public narrative and digital trust strategy. Her efforts contributed meaningfully to the broader enterprise progress that led to the recent removal of the Federal Reserve’s asset cap, a major milestone in the firm’s multi-year transformation.
She currently serves as a Fractional CMO and advisor to founder-led organizations on AI-driven transformation, helping leadership teams modernize communication and marketing strategies, measure impact and drive growth.
Sukhi also brings her experience into the classroom and boardroom, serving as an Adjunct Professor at Georgetown University, Rutgers University and the University of Delaware where she is developing graduate-level curriculum in applied artificial intelligence for communications.
She also serves on the national board of National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) and on the advisory boards of the Institute for Public Relations (IPR), and Washington Women in Public Relations (WWPR).
