Winslow will oversee the higher education and AP high school division including the content, digital product development, custom services, marketing, communications, training and professional development teams. Winslow will report to CEO Ken Michaels.
Winslow brings more than 26 years of educational publishing experiences to this role. Formerly, as Managing Director at Macmillan Learning, Winslow drove the new content and product development program resulting in marked company growth, particularly in digital product adoption across the Humanities, Social Sciences and STEM disciplines. As Vice President of Marketing, she directed the creative, promotional and digital strategies for the higher education group and spearheaded new digital product brands.

Winslow previously served as Publisher of the Life Sciences group where she was responsible for the content and digital publishing strategy governing life science materials at Macmillan, including teaching and learning resources for higher education and professional development for teachers and researchers. She oversaw the development of market-defining products that pioneered integration of print, media and assessments aligning together seamlessly to achieve a set of desired outcomes for students. She has been a long-time champion of STEM education as evidenced by her sponsorship of their annual STEM Executive Summit in partnership with Scientific American, and of EdFOO, an un-conference created in partnership with Google and O’Reilly Media. Both events are meant to unite leaders across industries to focus on challenges and opportunities in STEM education. Prior to joining Macmillan, Winslow held senior positions at Pearson in Sciences and Global Marketing.
