We have a new implementation in place with one department and other departments in early steps of implementing WF for their use. I'd love to connect with other Sys Admins to hear your best practices and experiences managing and maintaining WF across a multi-departmental implementation.

Hi Catherine, I would love to meet up! We are in the same boat, looking for best practices/tips/tricks for cross-department implementation as well as how others handle re-engagement. Should be plan on meeting after our networking session? Sana Perry National Heritage Academies, Inc.

Good morning all, Thanks for the responses. I'm looking forward to connecting with everyone. Sana, great idea, but I am booked during and after the Sys Admin networking session on 5/1. I'm not sure what everyone's schedules look like, but maybe we could connect at breakfast one morning or meet up for dinner? Thoughts?

I would love to meet up and hear others experiences. We have implemented cross-departmentally, but we've had different experiences with each. I'm looking to establish a base framework for future expansion and interested in how other companies are managing their expansion. Wendy White AmeriCredit Financial Services, Inc. dba GM Financial

Hi @Michael Lebowitz Thanks for flagging this! It looks like Monique is coordinating a meet up for breakfast on 5/1 for Project Coordinators/Traffic Resourcing folks. I think we can take the same approach for scheduling unless there is another way to mass invite. Once I hear a preference for a breakfast or dinner meet up, I'll generate an invite to all who have responded so far. If the thread generates more interest, we can follow Monique's info to extend the invite. Catherine Hayes Manager, Business Analytics and Project Operations The Channel Company Westborough MA

I'd like to meet, too. We have several large departments operational and are adding smaller ones - not sure they meet "group" criteria, so would be interested to hear how others handle this. Alana Coble WebMD

Hi folks, Same concept, different thread... As below, may I invite you SysAdmins who are trying to connect in Nashville to consider using the LEAP GPS App (e.g. and set up !LEAPSysAdmins)?

Count me in too! I manage one instance that has 12 separate departments using it, and we've been up and running for 5+ years.

@Michael Lebowitz Right now, just over 40% of customers that are going to Leap are in the Community and in this group. My goal is to get that number up to 60% of Leap attendees in community by the end of the week after Leap. So really, Leap is the community meet up. :) I think that people in different segments planning meet-ups via this group and the app that Doug found and set up for us is great! However, I won't be able to do a Community members meet up because it would be half of the conference. But I will have Community Member buttons (along with User Group and lots of other fun buttons) at the Community booth in the Experience Zone, so be sure to come and say hello to me!

I am suspecting that the hall is big. How will we find each other? I am a system admin trying to navigate an implementation that was put into place before I joined my company and the previous system admin no longer works here. Darcie Hughes Northeastern University

Hi Darcie, We are meeting for breakfast Wednesday, May 2 at 7am in Ryman. I just sent you an invitation and a contact share request over the LEAP app. If we all share info, it should be easier to track each other down. Have a great day!
