Kyle Murphy founded FutureWorks Strategy to help organizations develop and act on an affirmative vision of U.S. economic dynamism. He has served in leadership roles at the White House, Department of Commerce, U.S. International Development Finance Corporation, and Department of Defense.

Kyle previously served as a Director and Acting Senior Director for African Affairs on the National Security Council Staff. He chaired cross-governmental coordinating bodies and authored country-specific and regional economic, governance, and security strategies. This included helping lead the U.S. Government's partnerships with West African nations to support a wave of democratic elections across the region. He also played a crisis coordination role in the U.S. response to several major terrorist attacks, conflicts, and natural and humanitarian disasters on the continent.
Earlier in his career, he spent nearly a decade as an analyst in the Intelligence Community, including tours supporting the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and embassy teams overseas. While in the Intelligence Community, he was a leader in the Department of Defense's analytic tradecraft training and development component that drove innovation in integrating big data, emerging technologies, and advanced methods in intelligence analysis.
