Wikimedia Foundation Bolsters Executive Team

The Wikimedia Foundation expanded its executive team, adding Barry Newstead as chief global development officer and Zack Exley as chief community officer.

Newstead joins the Wikipedia parent from nonprofit consultancy The Bridgespan Group, where he worked on the foundation’s five-year strategic plan, and he has also worked with The Boston Consulting Group. In his new post, he will be responsible for increasing readership and supporting editor self-organization in the global south, overseeing communications with the general public and the media, as well as activities aimed at supporting and developing chapters.
