Alana Winns Steps Down as Editor-in-Chief and Chief Content Officer of Career Communications GroupBy: Career Communications Group Winns joined CCG earlier this year and swiftly made her mark on the editorial team, bringing creativity and innovative ideas to the forefront. Her leadership helped streamline operations and strengthened the alignment between CCG's content and its mission of amplifying underrepresented voices in STEM. During her time at CCG, she oversaw the editorial strategies for the company's major publications, enhancing their ability to engage and inform a broad and diverse audience of professionals, students, and corporate leaders. "Alana's contributions to Career Communications Group were significant from the outset," said Tyrone D. Taborn, Publisher and CEO of CCG. "Her leadership invigorated our editorial team, and her forward-thinking vision was critical in shaping the trajectory of our publications. While her time with us has been brief, her impact has been tremendous, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with her on future special projects." Winns will continue to collaborate with CCG on select special projects as needed, ensuring that her expertise remains a valuable asset to the organization. In the interim, Tyrone D. Taborn will assume all editorial and content responsibilities for *US Black Engineer & Information Technology*, *Hispanic Engineer & Information Technology*, and *Women of Color* magazines. Taborn, who has led CCG's editorial operations for decades, will guide the team through this transition without disruption to its ongoing mission of fostering diversity and inclusion in STEM. This transition aligns with Taborn's previously announced plan to retire within the next four years. He has emphasized that this shift in editorial leadership does not delay or impact his retirement plans. "While I plan to retire in the near future, this change does not alter my timeline or vision for Career Communications Group," Taborn said. "We remain fully committed to delivering impactful content, fostering growth, and preparing for the future. My focus now is on ensuring a smooth transition while continuing our editorial excellence and advancing our mission."
