Galentine's Day: Love Song

-
As luck would have it, this year's Galentine's Day is falling on WIT Wednesday, so I thought I'd take a brief moment to say thank you to all the awesome women in my life. Founded by the one and only Leslie Knope, Galentine's Day is about ladies celebrating ladies, and we all need a bit more Shine Theory in our lives!

This past year and a half (ish) has provided me with opportunities to connect with so many amazing women, who have all inspired me in some form or another, so this is going to sound a little bit like a love letter, but if not on Galentine's Day, then when!?

I know I'm the master of my own destiny, but I am grateful to each and every person that I've had an interaction with since the start of my Salesforce journey. To all the wonderful women, lovely ladies, fierce females and smashing sisters in my life - I'm thankful for each and every one of you.

From the greater Ohana who lift me up every day, to the women in my WIT group, to the amazing ladies I get to collaborate on projects with and to the awesome Salesforce employees - thank you. Thank you for everything you've done to inspire me to reach my full potential and be a better person every single day.

I'll have a post soon about my time at Bossed Up Bootcamp, but to finish off this brief post, I'm going to end with a quote from Emilie Aries - We Lift As We Climb. That's what Shine Theory is all about.

Happy Galentine's Day! xo



Soundtrack: Love Song - Sarah Bareilles, because Waitress.

#AwesomeAdmins, this is our time to shine.

Things are changing very quickly. The way we are doing business is changing literally by the day at this stage. I've been thinking about what to write about - a guide to working remotely, a list of favourite songs and tv shows, but as I thought about it more, and about how I've been able to change things at my company in just over a week, it finally came to me. Awesome Admins everywhere, it is our time to shine. Even if you don't work remotely, and even if you don't have job functionality outside being a Salesforce Admin, you have the power to be to help your users and your company as we begin to navigate our "new normal". Last year I was lucky enough to attend London's Calling and saw a presentation from the wonderful Lizz Hellinga about how Admin's are Critical Change Agents , and it really stuck with me. With the current climate, the time has come for us to step up. I checked in with Lizz to hear how she's dealing with things at the m...

Dreamforce 2023

The past year has been a rollercoaster, but I'm back with regular content! First up - the number 1 topic at the moment - post Dreamforce takeaways and AI thoughts. As regular readers of "Adventures in Salesforcing" well know, I never focus on the most technical of content, but I feel as though there are a lot of non-technical takeaways that come into play with AI that aren't getting enough love. So without further a do, here are my key takeaways! Like it or not, Generative AI is here to stay While yes, we go through waves of being excited about new features in this digital age, generative AI is not going anywhere. I'm not saying you need to start plugging everything into Chat GPT, in fact, I suggest that you don't do that, but that you start thinking about use cases for you and other members of your team, even if you are not ready to start acting on them.  But what if I don't want to? Even if you're not acutely aware of it, you are likely using some fo...

Mind Over Matter: Low Code Love

-
It's no secret that I'm a fan of low code solutions. While I love dabbling in some html as much as the next person, and I'm looking forward to the day when I join a RAD Women Code cohert, for now I'm 100% no code. So of course when Salesforce announced their Low Code Love event, it got me thinking about what low code means to me... Chatting with the awesome Gillian Bruce on the subject, the words "Empowering,  Equalising, and Fun" came to mind. But what do I mean by that? My favourite thing about the Salesforce Community are the truly incredible people I've been fortunate to meet as a result. They are always happy to help you figure out a problem, including helping you brainstorm a low code solution. Take Automation Hour as an example - a bi-weekly webinar focused on process automation solutions, presented by members of the community. And it was during a recent catch up call with my good buddy Aleks Milic Radovanovic that a light bulb went off. We ...
