My Journey from founding to selling NewRocket to joining the ShareLogic team!

Today it's with very mixed feelings that I announce that I have stepped away from my role at NewRocket, the company that I founded in 2016 with a mission to improve the digital workplace experience. This transition marks the end of a significant era of my life, but I'm extremely excited to share that I've joined the ShareLogic team as the Chief Creative Officer. I've known both James and Tim for over a decade, and their suite of integration products they have developed for ServiceNow are nothing short of extraordinary! I'm also happy to share that I've been working on a blog post that documents my story from working at ServiceNow, to founding NewRocket, and to ultimately deciding to sell the business. I've uploaded a ton of photos and share the story from beginning to end. So if you've been following my journey for a while, I think you will really enjoy this post. Read the Story of NewRocket And finally, I will still be attending the Knowledge conference in Las Vegas next month, so if you will be there and would like to meet, please book some time on my calendar! Let's Meet at Knowledge 24

Creating a Sidebar Menu Widget for Employee Center

In this video I'll show you how to create a sidebar menu widget for Employee Center in ServiceNow. As usual, I love to start by showing the art of the possible, and then I'll walk you through a basic implementation of the sidebar widget and explain the components needed to make it work. Keep in mind, this tutorial focuses on how to create the sidebar, but not the menu itself as that widget is much more complex. I've packaged up everything into an Update Set that you can download below.
