Community news, customer stories, and more!
In just three and a half years since the launch of Alteryx Community, we've seen a great deal of growth in consumption and collaboration as you, our customers, come together to support each other, explore new use cases to deploy at your organizations, submit ideas for our platform, and advance your analytical capabilities through learning and certification. In addition to this rapid growth, we're also just dipping our toes into expanding the availability of Community resources globally.
With all that in mind, it's shouldn't come as a surprise that we've invested a great deal into growing both the team and the expertise required to help us scale our Community efforts worldwide. In addition to the raw size of the community team - which has grown from zero to 17 in less than four years - we will continue to expand our capabilities to support the wide range of needs from customers, partners, associates, and the analytics industry as a whole.
With our hearts and minds focused on the future, it is my pleasure to announce the most recent additions to the Alteryx family! Join me in welcoming @OlivierLP, @BowK, and @JeffS to the Community team!
Olivier Le Pord
Senior Director, Global Community
Olivier joined us in April 2019 and is thrilled to have the opportunity to engage with such passionate Alteryx users! The majority of his experience working in Community Management comes from his tenure at Autodesk, where he spent 10 years managing their global community in various roles. He started out focusing on non-English language emerging markets, and eventually became the Global Community Manager overseeing moderation, platform administration, engagement activities, and several programs aimed at better serving customers. Fun fact: Olivier was born in France and has spent more than half of his life outside his home country, including several years in Central and West Africa.
Bow Techataveekijkul
Customer Advocacy & Community Lead, APAC
Bow started her career in communications and advertising working as a social media and Community Manager for a PR Agency in Bangkok. When making the move to Singapore she continued pursuing her passion for customer experience, working for Intuit Singapore in the social media and community space. In her spare time, she enjoys Aerial acrobatic arts and pole dancing. Bow will be focusing her efforts on nurturing and growing our communities in the APAC region, most notably our Japanese language community. Fun fact: As part of a home stay program in the countryside of Hokkaido Japan, Bow spent time teaching school kids about different cultures and digging up LOTS of potatoes.
Jeff Stroud
Director, Community Operations
Jeff is our Director of Community Operations, leading the efforts surrounding the development and operations of the underlying community technology that powers the Alteryx Community. He joined Alteryx at the end of 2018, coming with a lengthy background in delivering, managing, and supporting online communities.
Fun fact: Many MANY years ago, Jeff worked as a volunteer moderator on the Playstation forums!
We couldn't be more excited to have these incredibly talented people on board, and look forward to what the future brings! Please comment below to give a warm Alteryx Community welcome to our new team members!
