Program & Grant Leadership
Editorial Management
Developing editorial content involves planning and preparing various elements, including layout design, copyediting, proofreading, and content curation. Between academic and media spaces, Cobretti has experience managing editorial content from pitch and ideation to final publication, including academic journals, magazines, and general websites.
Content Design and Strategy
Digital content is more important than ever for building, establishing, and affirming brand experiences. Cobretti can work with fellow writers, editors, publishers, designers, and organizational leaders to align content campaigns and experiences with organizational goals and objectives, translating them into engaging, authentic content that resonates with diverse audiences.
Digital Storytelling
All good content begins with a story. Cobretti's understanding of the various modes of thought leadership and digital storytelling, and its expert grasp of the importance of qualitative, detailed stories that readers can identify with, can be an asset to an organization that wants to build products and services that create relationships between organizations and their audiences.
Often the most tedious and time-consuming work for action-oriented organizations, research and assessment are helpful tools to evaluate programs, initiatives, and grant-supported projects. Well-versed in qualitative and survey methodologies, Cobretti has direct experience working individually and with teams to turn research and assessment into evaluative tools and action plans that non-profit leadership, funding organizations, and program directors can use for organizational purposes.
