Sesame Workshop has realigned its education functions into the new research, education, data and impact (REDI) group.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe creation of REDI reinforces the central role that education plays in everything we do,\u201d said Steve Youngwood, CEO of Sesame Workshop. \u201cThe team\u2019s insights will help fuel strategic priorities, promote continued innovation and maximize the organization\u2019s global reach and impact educating and supporting children and families everywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re committed to having a more focused and aligned organization to have greater impact and better scale our knowledge and expertise,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n
REDI will report to Dr. Alison Bryant, chief research, education, data and impact officer.<\/p>\n
Akimi Gibson has been promoted to senior VP of multiplatform global education planning and integration to lead the organization in developing holistic educational content strategies across impact areas and verticals. Dr. Rosemarie Truglio will continue to lead the curriculum and content team as senior VP and will be focused on media content creation across platforms, global licensed products and family experiences. Truglio will also take on products for the formal learning market. Rocio Galarza will continue to lead the U.S. education team for U.S. social impact as VP and will focus on integrating programmatic work on the formal learning business. Carolina Casas will continue to lead the international education team for international social impact programs.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese changes signify a unified community of educators, researchers and data scientists who can apply their expertise and skill sets across the organization while preserving powerful relationships with partners across the organization,\u201d said Bryant. \u201cI\u2019m excited and proud to lead the REDI team as we evolve into a global center of excellence to support and service our programs, content and products.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
