Re: Leadership Update: A New Chapter
@GenefaMurph976, I just wanted to thank you personally. Over these five years on the platform, I’ve never seen an executive step forward and truly engage with the instructor community the way you did. It felt genuine, and I deeply appreciate that.
You’ve always shown remarkable energy and brilliance, and I’m certain that everything you do next will go incredibly well. Thank you for showing up, for listening, and for caring. Wishing you all the best in this next chapter.

Most definitely @Boris035 and thanks for the latest post on the Production Hub - the team are already added in some of the suggested links from your thread.
Re: Leadership Update: A New Chapter
It’s honestly a joke — predictable, but still a total joke. During one of the meetings, while trying to reassure instructors, she said that she was “in the same boat,” implying that her own job was also at risk if the switch from the marketplace to the subscription model didn’t work out.
Well, it clearly didn’t — at least not for instructors. Many lost a significant portion of their revenue, while Udemy maintained theirs. And once she got a better offer, she simply left. I’m sure she’ll present her time at Udemy as a big success, while in reality, it was quite the opposite.
It’s the same story as Greg Brown, who kept insisting that instructors were the most important part of the platform and that their revenue wouldn’t decline — yet under his “leadership,” it dropped far beyond the mandatory percentage cuts.
I’m honestly glad I decided to step away from Udemy and return to the industry full time when all of this started — it was the right call. At this point, it’s simply a waste of an instructor’s time. The worst part, though, is the constant lying — Udemy keeps saying instructors matter, but their actions tell a completely different story.
