Now this is exciting! I am so very happy to welcome Maria Nordin to the ISW team. Many in the IBM Connections community knows Maria well. Maria is one of the leaders behind the amazing Social Connections team, and comes to us from a great company Infoware in Sweden where she was the Product Manager for Domain Patrol Social. Maria will be joining us from August 20th starting with a trip to Australia to get up and running(....away from the dreaded Australian Drop Bears Maria;)
Maria will be taking on the role of leading our business development activities in Europe working with our many and growing Kudos and Buzzy customers in that part of the world. It will be great to finally have someone in that timezone that can have daily contact with our wonderful customers. With Maria's passion and background around Connections, Watson Workspace, and Social Business/Collaboration, we are also looking forward to her ideas around making our solutions even better. Europe has always been a great market for Kudos and we have many successful customers over there so it is wonderful that we can provide a higher level of service to them as well.
And of course Maria is also an IBM Champion for ICS! This brings the number of champions at ISW to 4 with Jared Roberts, Jay Agrawal, and myself. How cool is that!
