  • Format impact comparisons (e.g., video vs. article engagement).
  • Present insights and recommendations to leadership for strategic improvements.

Continuous Improvement and Innovation:

  • Lead efforts to enhance content accessibility and usability through advanced tools, e.g., AI-driven search enhancements or interactive elements.
