I spearheaded the effort to create a new subject area (K-8 science based on NGSS). The goal of the new programs is to help students develop skills needed to practice science, understand the concepts common to all sciences, and to explore a relatively small number of core disciplinary ideas. I built the entire team from the ground up by hiring and managing creative talent; between science and social studies, I was managing approximately 23 people. I created and continuously improved all development processes while building strong relationships with vendors and motivated them to do their best work. I successfully managed all projects within the division, created project plans, and completed them on-time and within budget.Tapped to lead the Product Development group after just two years of being hired, I upended all publishing norms for creating content. I modernized a bureaucratic, antiquated division by streamlining all processes and identifying best practices from software development (including being agile and more iterative).I managed the initial effort to create digital-only content versus just placing print items on the web and utilized technology to free teachers to focus on the most important aspects of teaching.Moved the company from print only to subscription based in less than one year.
