Thanks so much to everyone! It has been such an honor to join this movement, and the things we have experimented with and done have been exciting and fruitful. I know we spend a lot of time talking about our problems welcoming in newbies, but I felt so supported by so many of you from my first day four years ago when I was brand new. Thank you for your openness, your innovative ideas, your challenges to my thinking, and your partnership in building things together.
One point of clarification: I'll actually be working with IDEO.org http://ideo.org/, which is a spin-off of IDEO (and yes, Jane, that is the Wikipedia article for IDEO) It is a separate organization focused on partnering with people in need to design paths out of poverty. I'm very humbled for this opportunity, and look forward to sharing learning! I'm pasting some info below with the announcement.
Obviously, stay in touch. I will be around :)

It is super cool that you will bring your talent to other places! It was a pleasure to know and work with you! Thanks for everything you did for the Wikimedia movement and that you taught me whilst I had the opportunity to work together! You rock!
P. S. We need create a page about IDEO in Portuguese, then I'll keep supporting you to learn our language. :P (could be a start!)

Dear friends and colleagues,
Many of who have already heard from Jessie in multiple ways, but for those who haven't: Jessie Wild, who currently heads the Learning and Evaluation team in the Grantmaking department at WMF, is leaving for a year's fellowship with Ideo.[1] Her last day at the Foundation is tomorrow.
We are going to miss her. Jessie has been an extraordinary and integral part of WMF for the last four years, and demonstrated her initiative, insight and leadership in each of the positions she’s ably held here. For many of you, you may remember Jessie's first role was part of the consultant team working on the 5 year strategy. Most recently and importantly, she’s led the Learning and Evaluation team in the past year to do some significant baseline research and impact analyses of our grants and programs across the movement. This is work that lays the foundation for a great deal of our strategic vision and direction going forward. Thank you so much, Jessie, for all your strategic leadership, but even more: thank you for who you are, and the heart you’ve always brought to your team, WMF and the communities we support.
We are hoping that Jessie will rejoin us when she’s completed this brilliant opportunity at IDEO (she’s one of four chosen from over 450 applicants!). However, the work we are doing with all of you on impact and strategic outcomes for the movement is urgent and will need to be ramped up even further over this year. We will be opening up this position to lead the L&E team soon, and keep you posted on it.
Jessie, thank you again for all your manifold contributions.
Warmly,
Anasuya

Oh, interesting, a sort of generalisation of microcredit (https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q653953 ) programs? If the experience from Wikimedia is able to make a difference there, we'll hear about it for long. Keep us informed.
