Jim Cochran shared this#Citrix users - here's a great new feature, and if you are attending Microsoft #Ignite this week, stop by our booth (4013) to learn more, and sign up for Brian Madden's session to see #Aidrien in action!!!Jim Cochran shared thisAidrien !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Citrix announced Aidrien today, our AI-powered product support and assistance service built-in to Citrix Cloud. This week you'll see a lot online and at Microsoft Ignite about Aidrien's features and capabilities, so instead of writing about that, I'll share what's obviously my favorite part: the documentation! 🥰📘📗 https://lnkd.in/dZryHfwM It seems like every product has an AI-powered chatbot now, with a wide range of quality and utility, so I'm thrilled that in addition to releasing this capability, we're also sharing all the technical details you need to understand how Aidrien operates, including architecture diagrams, data flows, which data sources are used (and how), capabilities, network requirements, use cases, how-to guides, etc. Happy RTFMing!

Jim Cochran reacted on thisJim Cochran reacted on thisIt’s been an incredible ride. I’ve been working nonstop for more than five decades – starting at age 8 delivering 100 papers, 365 days a year. At 15, I worked in the produce department at a discount grocery store where the working conditions weren’t great, but I married this amazing girl from the snack bar. After college, I worked as a mechanical engineer on surgical lasers until I got the chance to do frontline technical support at Novell . Twelve years later, I had helped create ZENworks, earned a VP title, and I accepted an offer from Microsoft. Jump ahead another 18 years, and there were multiple billion-dollar businesses and entirely new classes of products wishing me well as I came back home to Utah to spend these last 5 years at Qualtrics. Each of those stops taught me something I couldn’t have learned anywhere else, but all those lessons are for another day and other posts. The one thing that was true everywhere I went was the importance of the people around you - the people you work with (EX), and the people you serve (CX). There is no new product feature, no emerging technology, and no market-shifting innovation that can replace that basic fact. Everything, every time, comes down to the culture and the individuals who bring a vision to life. Whether you are leading a company, a team, a home office, or just calibrating your own life, you have 3 foundational responsibilities: — Stake out an enduring, data-driven, and differentiated vision. — Build up the organizational structures that will accelerate you towards that vision. — Put the right leaders in those structures and empower them to do their best work. Then you work on culture. Every major mistake I made in my career traces back to a miscalculation in one of the three bullets above. I am the end product of literally thousands of people who have helped and influenced me over the last 50 years. Trying to list them all here would be impossible, but I’ll find a way to tell them in person every chance I get. I promise you that there is no single character trait that will serve you better than to travel through this world with a heart full of gratitude. The step into retirement is more exciting to me than any of the steps that have come before it. Thank you for being part of my story.

We hold in our hands the blueprint of people’s memories and the script of their dreams." Today, I had the tremendous honor of delivering the commencement address for Temple University’s School of Tourism and Hospitality Management — an experience I will truly never forget. Temple University and STHM have played such an important role in Philadelphia’s tourism, hospitality and events community, and have also had a meaningful impact on my own professional journey over the years. It was incredibly humbling to have the opportunity to speak to this year’s graduates on such an important day. Thank you again to Temple University and the entire STHM community for this incredible honor. Congratulations to the Class of 2026. Your passion, energy and ambition are inspiring, and I cannot wait to see the impact you make on our industry and beyond. #Philadelphia #Tourism #Events #Commencement

Jim Cochran liked thisJim Cochran liked thisI want to give a massive shoutout to the Account Executive team at Creative Planning. Over the last quarter, we’ve doubled our team size—a transition that often breaks a team's culture. Instead, this group leaned in. Despite navigating lower lead flows and a shifting sales strategy, they’ve maintained the most impressive change management mindset I’ve ever seen. They haven't just welcomed new AEs; they’ve doubled down on an environment of winning together. To a team that finds a way to win no matter the challenge: Thank you for showing us how it's done!

Jim Cochran liked thisJim Cochran liked thisShe went from last place to first in one lap. You have been waiting longer than that to move. There is a version of you that already knows what the next move is. They are waiting for you to stop processing the fall and start running. The gap does not close itself. The decision does. Save this for the day after the fall when the race is still running. Here is what the decision to get back up actually requires. 1. You decide before you feel ready. ↳ Readiness is not the signal. The race still running is the signal. 2. You get up in the same room where you fell. ↳ The comeback always counts especially in the eyes of the same people who saw the fall. 3. You name the setback before someone else defines it for you. ↳ Whoever tells the story first owns the narrative. Make sure it is you. 4. You make your next move the most visible thing you do this quarter. ↳ A quiet comeback is just another invisible performance. 5. You hand off something bigger than what you were carrying when you fell. ↳ That is the only proof leadership needs that the fall did not define you. Getting promoted at Google should have opened the door I wanted. It did not. Someone else was already standing in it. I stopped waiting for that door and walked through a different one. It was the right call. When the door you earned does not open the way you expected. When you realise the path was never the door, it was the decision. The right call is rarely the comfortable one. It is just the right one. ♻️ Repost to someone who is still waiting for the right door to open. ➕Follow Donnetta Kay for leadership strategies on visibility

Jim Cochran liked thisJim Cochran liked thisI've had the pleasure to co-produce All Access with the Profs alongside Logan Stewart for the past two semesters. I'm proud to say that our last episode has aired on Rowan Television Network this past week! In two seasons (1 year) of All Access we were able to accomplish: -Produced 18 weekly live episodes, each over 30 minutes -Interviewed Charles Barkley and Jason Kelce -Reached 3,500+ total views across all episodes, ranking #1 among all RTN studio shows for the year -Added new segments and format for the show -Told the stories of all of Rowan's varsity sports (Thanks Logan for the numbers) However, what makes every year special, is the crew. Logan and I can't express enough how much your time, effort, and commitment has improved this show. You guys make it look easy! Thanks for an incredible Experience. https://lnkd.in/ex4QqV2t
