As part of USAID’s Private Sector Engagement communications team, this Network initiative was one of many modernization efforts within my portfolio. I amplified PSE’s programs internally and externally and managed related events. To address low visibility of Industry Leads and Relationship Managers and reduce duplicative and ad-hoc outreach, this series humanizes the Network and clarifies how to engage it. I defined the editorial angle, success criteria, and mapped priority audiences so teams treat it as the first stop for industry coordination.

Project

The Global Industry Coordination Network members feel like they lack awareness on who is interested, and the PSE Hub urges staff to be tapping into them as a resource before they go on their separate discovery.

Process

Led end-to-end production, prepped interviewees, developed questions and moderated, partnered with the video team to edit and stream the series, and executed a multi-channel distribution plan to reach missions, bureaus, and other stakeholders.

Outcomes

Increased awareness and uptake of the Network, improved information-sharing,and established the Network’s aim to deliver a more unified Agency voice in private-sector engagement.
