3 April 2017 - Lightning Guru

Tonight we were all at Salesforce Tower for a meet up special. Mike Rosenbaum was in the UK for a spot of holidaying and offered his time for us to ask everything we wanted to know about Lightning. As the Lightning Guru, Mike was more than happy to answer our questions. 


With quite literally standing room at the back our Francis played host, fielding the questions that had been gathered over the meet up channels from both the Admin and Dev groups for Mike to help with. 

 Lightning is here and getting stronger with every release. As end users, we really should be eyeing up our Orgs and thinking hard about the transition over. The next few releases will see improvements to performance and parity with Classic. Classic is essentially dead so if you also want the new cool stuff then its time to make the move.

5. Cancer Diaries - Solution Architect

Image
If you remember, the last thing I wanted to happen was have chemo. Chemo is the thing I am most scared about in this whole process. It's toxic and utterly consuming.  As a side point, I had been managing to sleep reasonably well. I had been focussing on the present and quietly talking to myself by saying, "there is no chemo here, you are in bed and all is ok, there is nothing to fear here, so sleep". Basic techniques to keep me centred throughout the day too, being as mindful as I could at work, concentrate on the task and then get absorbed in a TV programme or be social in the evening.  But it was now time to meet my Oncologist and this was the conversation I most dreaded. This conversation would bring home the dark reality of the situation. Time to put on the big girl pants and face the music.  It's not often you feel sorry for someone's job but no one ever wants to meet the Oncologist, or wants to sit in their office, ever. Their news rarely brings joy. It'...

24. Cancer Diaries - Project Closure

Image
A project is a defined allotment of time in which to deliver change. At some point a project will come to a close, whether it be at the end of a phase of work, or when the money runs out. Whatever the reason, there are tasks to complete to help wrap up the project and to move onto other things; project closure.  It's the same for me and my breast cancer journey. I gave myself a milestone of completing all the big, impactful treatments - the chemo, 2 surgeries and radiotherapy and then drawing a line under them when they were all finished as a way to say my journey was done.  Often in projects, when a phase is completed the team celebrates. It is used as a mental note to acknowledge the end. It's also very useful to highlight this to clients too, but thats for another blog.  I decided I wanted to do the same and so we devised a project closure road trip. We decided to return to the place we fled to last year on the day of my official cancer diagnosis, to a hotel right on t...

15 November 2023 - In memory of Gemma Blezard

Image
I first met Gemma in November 2017 when Bluewolf hosted the London Admins Community Group at their office. Gemma was our contact point. She sat in the audience and heckled us the whole evening. I immediately liked her.  After that moment Gemma became a regular of the London Admins and also volunteered to speak at our meetings, one memorable talk was about her certification journey and how she had her eye set on becoming a Certified Technical Architect.  It was also late 2017 when Gemma was working on her Architect certifications that she realised that there wasn't the support or content to help her achieve them. So, she created it herself and decided to share it with the world, under the monica, Ladies Be Architects. Only 10% of the Salesforce Certified Architects were women, and few people came from a non technical background; Gemma wanted to change that. The LBA grew traction as more content was added and promoted. The group grew as there was a real thirst for this knowledge...
