My presentation proposal was selected from hundreds of submissions. Then, out of the hundred speakers, Atlassian chose to feature me! How exciting! That’s me, directly under Mike Cannon-Brookes, Atlassian Co-Founder & Co-CEO. Between this, the “One of Us” Community Award, and publishing the JIRA Strategy Admin Workbook, it’s been an amazing year! I am so thankful.

Do you have duplicate JIRA fields, statuses, and issue types? I had dupes of dupes to clean up! Avoid this mistake and hear others at the Dallas, Texas Atlassian User Group on August 17, 2017 and the London, England group on August 22, 2017. Author and Certified JIRA Administrator Rachel Wright presents “Top JIRA Administration Mistakes” based on the JIRA Strategy Admin Workbook.
The goal of the “Top JIRA Administration Mistakes” presentation is to keep others out of what I call the “JIRA swamp.” Or, if you’re already in it, help dig you out. This session is different – it’s about strategy. It’s recommendations from years of cleaning up horrible JIRA configurations! It’s about what you should do, what you shouldn’t do, and why. Hear the mistakes I made as a JIRA administrator and real examples of problems to avoid. Would you rather your application be an organized, tidy, and trimmed garden or a foggy, contaminated, overgrown swamp?
Atlassian Users Groups are where users meet, learn, network, and share best practices. The groups meet locally, all over the world, on a quarterly or more frequent basis. User Group members are newbies and veterans who like to “talk shop” about Atlassian software, about Agile development, and about related business topics. At these events, you can network with your peers, share solutions, meet Expert Partners, get special content from Atlassian, and enjoy a beer.

The venues have changed, the focus, content and activities have changed, and most of all I’ve changed. Join me as I recap my Summit journey. Continue reading “Summit Through the Years”

Rachel says “The absolute highlight of the tour so far was speaking about JIRA at the Atlassian office in Austin!” That’s a bucket list item that will be hard to top.
Rachel’s presentation approach is different. Instead of boring slides and data points, she uses a conversational style to share real mistakes and examples of scenarios to avoid in JIRA.
