Welcome to the Southeast Regional Group! Please introduce yourself.

I am Kathy Phalen with Moba Corporation. We are new to the Jive community. Our first strategy meeting is tomorrow.

We look forward to getting started................

I met many of you at the Atlanta event and joined the community shortly after the event.  Most of you know Suzanne O'Brien, and she is moving to a great new role as a Product Director of one of Allscripts' large clinical product.  This is a great new role for Suzanne...congratulations Suzanne.  She will continue to be engaged with Jive (ClientConnect) as she will be a great user advocate and will continue to push innovative use of collaboration and ClientConnect with our Clients.

I am developing a new team to help support Jive/ClientConnect and will be engaging those managers into this community, as they will be deeply engaged in the day to day operations and new and exciting projects.  Kris Pratico is the new Operations Manager and I will introduce the new On-line Community Manager once we have completed recruitment/hiring.

Topic ideas we would be willing to discuss or help contribute.

• Swarming- A trial project that we are using for Support discussions and topics to collaborate quickly to solve problems
• Providing product documentation to the Client Community
• Lessons learned and challenges in community interaction, how we are guiding positive and guiding the community to address negative conversations (this one we would love to open up for broader discussion)

Excited to see this user group forming. I am with a company called ThreeWill who is an Atlanta Jive Partner.  Our company partnered with Jive to build the SharePoint Integration for Jive.  Let us know if there is any questions you have about the integration between Jive and SharePoint and we would be happy to field the question or point you in the right direction.  Note that dannyryan and Kirk Puffenberger from ThreeWill are in this group also.

Looking forward to seeing how we can help each other in this community!

Hello, all!  I am in Huntsville, AL.  I am a consultant to NASA here at MSFC and to GSFC in Maryland (as well as others).  My role with MSFC is as the Social Strategist.  We just had our official 1-yr anniversary since launch there.  Although I have been using Jive since 2007ish, NASA is just getting their feet wet. 

I moved from Portland (Land of Jive) about 2.5 year ago to be closer to NASA and LOVE it in the South!

Sure hope to be able to meet up sometime with some of you.  Any of you going to the E2.0 conference in June?

Hi all - I'm a general social business enthusiast and Jive partner.  I lead the Social Business practice at a consulting firm, and so my job is focused largely around helping companies figure out how to leverage social technology to tackle business problems and/or achieve business goals.

I've also recently moved to the DC area and spend quite a bit of time in Atlanta, so I'm looking forward to connecting with others and attending any events in the area.

Hi I'm James Ungerer, East Coast Trainer with Jive Software.

Hi. I'm Renee Harper.  I manage - sort of - our external support communities (https://communities.sas.com).  I know there are other Jiver's in the RTP area.  Where are you guys? 

Hello!  I'm Kirsten Laaspere.  I am the Community Manager (internal) at Fidelity Investments. 

Renee Harper we are in the RTP area!

Hi everyone!  I am Kate Goodyear, product owner for the internal social collaboration platforms at Fidelity.  We have a large technology group here in RTP, specifically the collaboration team   I'm working with Mark Weitzel to help organize the Southeast Region Meetup & "Unconference" in NC  so feel free to reach out if you have ideas, questions, or just want more info!  We will also be updating the info posted as we get closer to April!

Greetings y'all!!! (HAHAHA I could not resist)

I'm Jive's Director of Platform & Ecosystem. That translates roughly to mean that I help people be successful building integrations with Jive (apps, REST, whatever). I've had the pleasure to meet some of you in person already and I can't wait to meet more of you. If you have not heard about it already, we are working to get a Southeast Region Meetup & "Unconference" in NC organized. It would be great if you can join us and participate.

Hi Everyone.   I am Brian Steinberg and the new Georgia Territory Manager.      I bring a passion for "Operational Social Networks",  and the transformational impact they can deliver to an organization.   Prior to joining Jive, I spent a few years at Salesforce.com supporting a Fortune 10 Company as well as a few years at Lithium Technologies.    I bring a unique perspective and experience to SCRM, and the Internal vs External Community Conversation (IMHO it is not about either/or,  but rather both.   Even more impactful, there is a multiplier effect when you reach the intersection of Internal, External, Partner/Channel, and Machine collaboration).

Anyway...I am looking forward to meeting the local Georgia community members... and learning more about your Jive journey.

Good afternoon!  My name is John Becker.  I very much look forward to participating in this group.

I work with a great group of people in Palm Harbor, Florida known as the Phenix Energy Group.  I am the Chief Governance Officer and as such am responsible for all security, compliance and governance issues, as well as helping to conduct performance management related business for the group.  We are just getting going with Jive on a trial basis (for the past two weeks), and so I not only wanted to join the SE Group today, but also want to check with people in the know in the SE Group concerning what process we need to follow to set up a users group at Phenix (?).

We are a green field operation that is exploding with Jive talk, chatter, and generalized excitement, and will be exploding with tremendous activity in a wide variety of other ways over the next couple of weeks.  So online collaboration, project management facilitation, process design and mapping, equipment acquisition, etc. and much more are the order of the day!

Might anyone out there in Jive land be so kind as to show me the way to starting up our own Jive Users' Group at Phenix?

Hello everyone!   I recently joined Jive as a Sales Engineer based out of Charlotte, NC.  I've spent my career helping organizations collaborate more effectively and came to Jive after working several years in the world of Microsoft SharePoint as well as legacy ECM platforms like Documentum.  If questions arise about Jive's integration, I'm happy to be of assistance.   I also write for AIIM and CMSWire and it's likely you may have read stuff I've written over the years.  Connect with me here and I'm on linkedin and twitter:  @getrichieb

Hello everyone!  I recently joined Jive as a territory manager based out of Charlotte, NC supporting all existing and prospective Jive customers.  I'm excited to meet all of you and should any questions or concerns arise regarding Jive please don't hesitate to reach out to me.

Cheers,

Thanks all!

Hi all! As the Community Manager for the newly launched Bluegreen Vacations Jive community, Circles, I'm excited to utilize this group to maximize our communities success! Nice to meet you! Hope to work with you all soon!

Looks like it is South Florida newbie day.  My company is just kicking off with Jive, but I have a long background in knowledge management and have been utilizing SharePoint for the past 11 years to get companies collaborating.  I'm excited to get working with Jive to take social and collaboration to the next level at my company.  Based out of Deerfield Beach, FL.
