Our guest for Cooking with Milwaukee Community Leaders is Thelma Sias. A retired high-profile executive and community leader, Thelma Sias spent three decades with We Energies, where she ultimately led its community engagement efforts.

In 1986, Sias joined Wisconsin Gas Co., which was later acquired by Wisconsin Electric and parent company Wisconsin Energy Corp. By 2003, she had risen the ranks to become vice president of local affairs, where she worked with community leaders and local government officials to further the company’s business initiatives and lead multimillion-dollar projects. She also served on the We Energies Foundation board. Later in her career, she founded and continues to serve as chief executive officer of consulting firm The Sias Group LLC.

Thelma shows us how she makes her mother's Stewed Sweet Potato recipe and Sauteed Sweet Corn with Bacon.

This Podcast is an Interview and cooking show with Milwaukee Community Leaders. We have a short interview about their work in the community, then we cook something and then we eat it. From our elected leaders to those working at the grassroots, we talk with people trying to make Milwaukee a better place.
