“The Weinberg Center has an international reputation for its programs and the impact it has had on influencing and shaping corporate governance laws and practices,” said Mulé. “I am delighted to join the Weinberg Center as associate director and look forward to working closely with Charles Elson as well as with the students, faculty and staff at UD, the Delaware judiciary, shareholders, corporate board members and the legal and governance community to continue to advance the center’s mission and strategic goals.”

Mulé has over 25 years of experience in the corporate governance field. In her former roles at Sunoco, Inc., she provided governance advice and legal counsel directly to the board of directors, board committees and senior management team.

In addition to managing board and board committee matters, she had primary responsibility for securities and corporate law; governance and executive compensation; corporate compliance; and general matters related to public company accountability.
