Hey everyone!

My name is Nate Bagley. I'm the new Community Manager here at Workfront.

My job is to support you, answer your questions, facilitate conversations, help you get to know the Workfront software better, and make this community a cool place for you to visit regularly. I'm really excited to get to know you all personally.

I'd love it if you'd upload a profile picture of yourself here is a walkthrough of how to do that if you get stuck ) and then introduce yourself briefly in the comments below by answering one or all of these questions:

How do you use Workfront?

What would make this community amazing for you?

How much time do you spend using Workfront on a daily basis?

What are you passionate about (other than work)?

What's your favorite joke?

Here's a little about me: I'm very passionate about podcasting, I love Lindy Hop dancing, my guilty pleasure is the Muppets, and I'm super excited to be here at Workfront. I know the team here cares about you a lot. They're really excited to meet a bunch of you at LEAP in a few weeks. Ok, your turn! Upload that profile picture , and introduce yourself!

Hi Dawn, I'm interested in hearing more about the assignment breakdown column. That's something I could use right now in my project view. Thanks in advance! In Reply to Dawn Hamil:
I look forward to see how others have solved problems / created workflows within Workfront & text sharing for reports for new column views! One of my recent favorites is the Assignment Breakdown.

No, you're OK Phil, Southampton aren't that bad. Now if you'd have said Spurs, Arsenal or even Man Utd it might have been a different story... In Reply to Phil Stickland:
@ Stuart - If I said Southampton would that ruin my chances of you bringing Marmite? :p

this would guarantee my attendance for sure (and my climbing partner might want to tag along as well). ;-) In Reply to Nate Bagley:

Congrats on starting climbing, Nate! It's a slippery slope (haha) to spending a ton of money on some good times. Utah (assuming you are based there) has some beautiful rock and I definitely want to come climb there one day. If you guys are ever in my part of the world, definitely let me know (and bring your harness and shoes) - we'll all go climbing together. There is a significant amount of crossover between the dance and climbing communities, and many of my dancing friends also love to climb.

Skye, I feel like you are my kindrid spirit. I love blues, am trying to get better at Balboa, and you're right, Seattle has a killer swing scene. Also, I just bought my first climbing harness last week and have started climbing with my girlfriend. Are you also a Doghouse Diaries fan? I'll look into the available features to see if we can get an "upvote" feature added, and will work on breaking the global forum into more specific categories as I get to know the software a bit better. I'm hoping to have things a bit more organized before the influx of users we expect during LEAP. Great feedback. Thanks for chiming in, and great to meet you!

Hi Nate, My name is Dawn Hamil. I am the Workfront Administrator for Precision Dialogue, so I am in the system all day, every day. Precision Dialogue helps clients be more relevant to their customers by providing marketing services across four critical areas: strategy, information, insights and interaction. We have just completed our first year in the system and look forward to learning more, especially the contour feature for resource allocation coming out later this year. I look forward to see how others have solved problems / created workflows within Workfront & text sharing for reports for new column views! One of my recent favorites is the Assignment Breakdown. I’m very busy outside of work with my 3 kids, leading scout meetings & events for both Boy and Girl Scouts, as well as Sea Scouts, watching them dance & play in the band, marching & jazz and sports, track season is upon us right now. How many marketers does it take to screw in a light bulb? None -- they've automated it. :) Regards, Dawn

hey there, I work in a company based in Washington (State, not city) and we use Workfront to manage our marketing pieces. I sysadmin Workfront, and that has me working in Workfront 70% of the time. This community would be a bit more amazing if you could start splitting out the global forum to more specific categories (reporting help, bugs, social, etc), and if we could upvote responses, so that (just like in Quora) the more popular responses can float up. Just like Nate, I lindy hop (and believe that Seattle has one of the best dance scenes in the world). To keep it all equal-opportunity, I also dance blues, balboa, salsa, bachata, kizomba, and tango. I started rock climbing a year ago, and have been lucky enough to climb in Australia and NY, in addition to our local rocks. I don't have a favorite joke, but my favorite comic is xkcd.com - that's usually good for a giggle. Looking forward to meeting people at LEAP and forming more of a community of peers where we can share knowledge with each other.
