- Friday Shoutout to our AMER AMA hosts @Rob OBrien @Libby Ziemelis and @Jordan Berger! They hosted a lively session this week (a week earlier than usual but wanted to avoid overlapping with Dreamforce next week!). While these AMAs are NOT recorded (to allow for open, honest conversation), my amazing teammate @Natalie Larino shares a written follow up in the Ask Me Anything group. You can read her recap of the session here.
Phew, that was a packed update! Thanks for all you do to make this community so amazing. Wishing you a wonderful weekend and see some of you in person NEXT WEEK at Dreamforce WOO!
