Happy Wednesday Everyone! Team '24 was one week ago and there were some amazing announcements! I have a very simple question for you this week: Which announcement got you the most excited? Personally, I extremely excited about the rebrand of Access/Beacon to combine them into the new Atlassian Guard (Premium) product. As…

Happy Wednesday Everyone! We are LIVE, at Team ‘24! For all of you that were unable to make it in person, I hope you enjoy the digital experience from the comfort of your home. As I mentioned on the post last week, I have online and in person challenges that are running from now until Bash ends on Thursday night. For my…

I have discovered that inspiration can strike at any moment. Being able to jot something down in the moment can be extremely beneficial especially when you get to my age and develop an etch-a-sketch brain. However, there are other times when I'm simply waiting on something/someone else and I have a bit more time to draft…

Happy Wednesday Everyone! It's hard to believe Team ‘24 is happening next week! If you are trying to decide if you should try to manage with a carry-on alone. Do yourself a favor and bring a checked suitcase. Even if it’s completely empty on the way to Vegas. Every time I have gone, I have struggled to get all the swag to…

Happy Wednesday Everyone! The first year I attended the Atlassian Summit Team, I built an agenda entirely of sessions and I didn't plan any time for simply exploring the Expo Hall and all of the vendors. My mistake was that I went in with the mindset that I don't have any buying power so speaking to vendors is a mistake…

Happy Wednesday Everyone! Did you know that today is National Public Sleeping Day in the US? I didn’t either. More interestingly, did you know there are multiple different types of named nap types? * The Power Nap is approximately 10 to 20 minutes long and can give a boost of energy to get us through the rest of the day. *…

Happy Friday Everyone! Team ‘24 is next week and I’m getting things started with a charity challenge for everyone!

I will be running this challenge both Wednesday & Thursday (the two days Team '24 will be…

Happy Wednesday Everyone! This week is for all my friends that will be living vicariously throughout the in person attendees via a "Digital Pass". My recommendation to you is to try and take advantage of your digital ticket by blocking sections of your work calendar to attend/watch the keynotes and sessions that you feel…

Happy Monday Everyone! In the true spirit of “miscellaneous” Monday, I thought I share with you all the background/history of the holiday that is being celebrated in my part of the world today. The third Monday in February is recognized in Ontario and a number of other provinces (but not all) as Family Day. The main reason…

Happy Wednesday Everyone! I thought it might be fun to play a round of “would you rather ?“ this week. Here we go: Would you rather: Have unlimited budget to spend on a single Atlassian product (and it’s apps). But, you can only have free subscriptions for all other products. Or: You don’t have any budget for apps, but you…

Happy Wednesday Everyone! Today is “Little Red Wagon Day“! Now, I didn’t have a little red wagon growing up, but if you did I’m love to hear what you enjoyed most about it in the comments. What I did remember the moment I read this was one of my favorite cartoon characters and comic strips growing up: Calvin & Hobbes. To…

Today is the day! As of this post being published I am in the office trying to get accustomed to the office I have only been at a handful of times over the past three years I have been employed here. I'm putting together this article as requested by @Andy Gladstone to share some of my efficiency tips and tricks when…

Happy Wednesday Valentine’s Day Everyone! It’s only seems appropriate that today we share a little love for our favorite productivity tools. Let’s me know what your favorite Atlassian Product or feature is. I’ll get things started: Confluence has become my absolute favorite product! From the templates like the “how-to…

What I can promise is that the more you share and contribute, the more valuable this group will be to everyone! What types of contributions are valuable here?

Happy Wednesday Everyone! Experts say this can be the hardest time of the year. Being fully back to the work routine, lack of going outside, and limited vitamin D from less sunlight can have people feeling down. I know I have had my share of days where I'd rather stay under the warm covers than brave the cold, dark outside…

Happy Wednesday Everyone! Yes, were already starting to talk about Atlassian Team '24. If you submitted a session proposal back in November, I hear acceptance/rejection emails are being sent out. What you may have missed is the call to nominate your team for the Atlassian Team Awards! This is your opportunity to brag about…

Happy Wednesday Everyone! I posted a similar topic about this a couple of years ago, which was based on the first time I had seen it almost five years ago now. The other day, I took the free test again. I wanted to see things were still the same as when I first took the test. I had changed jobs, I’ve been working from…

So how are things going? Have you completed any of them? Or are you making progress towards completing them? If you haven’t that’s ok, there’s…

It's Thursday! My birthday happened this week and that is always a reminder to me that the summer is almost over. I always have big aspirations for everything that I want and plan to do each summer, and by the time my birthday rolls around I’ve usually only managed a fraction of those aspirations. However, it has become a…

Happy Wednesday Everyone! I was fortunate enough to be able to attend a local version of Atlassian Unleash yesterday in Toronto. This was an amazing event with a number of wonderful speakers. This week, I thought I'd share a collage of the event. Have you or are you going to be attending a local Unleash event? Have you…
