SVP, Communications
There are the usual demands of a head of communications for an MLB team, and then there are the additional challenges Staci Slaughter has faced.

Slaughter has been on the front lines for three of the most hotly debated issues in recent baseball history: the financing and construction of AT&T Park, Barry Bonds and his position as the sport’s all-time home run king, and the current territorial battle surrounding the Oakland A’s proposed move to San Jose. A World Series title in 2010 further amplified Slaughter’s demands and profile, as will next spring’s World Baseball Classic final at AT&T Park.

Slaughter did not start her career in sports, instead working for former San Francisco Mayor Frank Jordan. She joined the Giants in 1996 to help with the ballpark development on what was designed to be a temporary assignment. Sixteen years later, Slaughter is a key voice in the club’s executive leadership.
