It's been an incredible ride, one filled with growth, learning, and unforgettable experiences. First and foremost, I want to express my deepest appreciation to every single person who has been a part of this journey with me.

I must extend a special thank you to some remarkable individuals who have been my guiding lights along this path. Brent Healy, Star Thomas, Thomas Jenket, Brandon L.

Dear Network, Today marks my 5 year anniversary at Salesforce, the longest I have ever been with any company ⏳ . Salesforce is all about changing, adapting and creating and I do not lie when I say that there is never a dull moment - neither are there many easy days 😅 . Since 2006 I am loyal to my customer base - the EU institutions 🇪🇺 , later joined by NATO and after that by the Belgian Public Sector 🇧🇪 . Digital Transformation has shaped our private lives over the past years significantly and we start seeing a positive impact in the Government Sector - it is a privilege to be part of this journey. Some of the things in a career that IMO always hold true are: we always (always!) deal with people. Listening to and acknowledging the other person’s position is important. Trust is earned and integrity goes a long way. And as we deal from human to human, be yourself. Being yourself, myself in my case actually, comes with challenges too. With the realization that I really am bad at many things. With the realization that this is ok, as long as I communicate about my weaknesses with clients, colleagues and superiors. It also comes with the realization that after many years in business, regularly ‘muscle memory’ kicks in and one can trust oneself and one’s experience. And, very importantly: it’s OK to be not OK - supporting your team members is paramount. Asking for support is absolutely fine. Because a career is a marathon, not a sprint. Smell the roses every now and then 🌹. There are so many people at Salesforce I would need to mention here as you make my work rewarding and fun - so I keep it at (the slightly lame I know I know...) ‘You Know Who You Are’. However there are three individuals who made me boomerang back to Salesforce three years ago and I want to you to know that I never looked back! Thank you from the bottom of my ❤️ Amy Weaver, Casey Coleman and Kevin Paschuck! In conclusion (of my probably longest LinkedIn Post ever - but I am ready to stand corrected should you dig one up) I am grateful and happy to be part of Salesforce. Would I do it again? Hell yeah! TLDR: Andreas is 5 years at Salesforce and pretty stoked about it 🚀

☁ Celebrating 12 years at Salesforce this month - and I wanted to share my Top 12 list of things I wish I knew when I started + who has inspired me. OK, actually its a baker's 🍞 dozen ☁ 1. Your customers think about you 1% of the time you think about them. Simplicity reduces noise & drives Relevance. Work harder to make it easy for them 2. Action > Analysis, Pace > Perfection, Agreement > Expectations. Just get to work. Frank Slootman is the sensei🥋 3. Outcomes over Inputs. Customers want to know the time, not how the⌚️ works. Start with Outcomes and Values and work backwards. Fresh eyes & diverse teams help 4. Moving Up Market requires selling to the Buyer, who’s likely not the User. Call higher. Elevation changes perspective. Story must change as the level and persona changes. This. Is. Hard Dave Mager 5. Moving Up Market requires industry specific, use case-based plays. Geoffrey Moore is the absolute master Rosetta Stone 6. Keep a Gratitude Journal & Success File 📚. Create hard boundaries, unapologetically. Requires being terribly efficient w your cal. Your legacy will be what you did for your family - not work. When it comes to balance, lead from the front or your people won't really believe you when you talk about it Thomas Neergaard Hansen 7. When you get to 3rd line level mgmt, >50% of your time is across teams per Peter Doolan. Extended teams are just supply chains⛓️- some complex, some simple. Wisdom is the ability to bring the 🌲 together to create a forrest. Most people will still see the trees. Don't downgrade your motion. Upgrade theirs Darren Levy 8. Serve your customer 1st, not your boss. Come again? When every team serves their internal & external customer 1st, the KPIs get hit and the boss is happy. Starting w siloed KPIs undermines these supply chains. When you serve your people, they serve theirs. Serve, help, share, repeat 🙏 Andy Kofoid 9. Build your Playbook around your Talent - not the other way around. “A players want to work with A players” -Steve Jobs 10. Empower your people - show, teach, let them experiment and fail - have their back. Loyalty starts there. Feedback in private, praise in public. Note “Experimental failure is different than Operational failure” Bezos Jeff 11. Systemise everything. Daily habits matter more than almost everything else. Upgrade Goals to Decisions. Decision + Date on a calendar + Systems actioned daily = Unstoppable: James Clear 12. Your biggest limitation is your mindset. Limitations are learned & artificial. While others complain or choose a toxic victim mindset, be the one with the abundance, gratitude & unlimited mindset: Chris Dorris 13. If you want promotion, the most important thing you need is a Sponsor - someone that has your back w leadership when you're not around. People move jobs - you’ll need more than one. This will likely be the #1 factor in your career's trajectory and pace. As you move up, who are you bringing up with you?

This is absolutely something I need to have in my list of anecdotes and experiences. So many things in here ring true across industries and roles, so use these free life lessons for good!

Can't believe it's been 3 years at Salesforce! What a rollercoaster, with its ups & downs 🎉 Grateful for the challenges, growth, and the awesome team that makes each day special. Excited for the journey ahead, soon to be on the other side of the Atlantic, and looking forward to creating even more memories together. Thanks to everyone who's been part of this ride. 🚀 #SalesforceAnniversary"

Some great insights here

I make it a point to celebrate every Salesforce certification, new job, and personal milestone I come across. Because sometimes, our inner self-confidence needs a little help, and that extra boost from others can make all the difference. Celebrating these moments publicly not only acknowledges the hard work and dedication of individuals but also fosters a sense of community. It creates a supportive environment where people feel valued and recognized. This encouragement can inspire others to strive for their own goals and share their achievements, creating a positive feedback loop of motivation and support. Moreover, in a world where negativity often dominates the headlines, spreading positivity through celebration can have a profound effect. It reminds us all to appreciate the good moments, no matter how small, and to support each other in our journeys. So, let's keep celebrating and lifting each other up—because sometimes, a little recognition from others is exactly what we need to keep pushing forward.

Celebrating my Salesforce 8-year anniversary! All thanks to Eric Berg and Zach Bailey for saying yes to bringing me on at Salesforce 8 years ago. Grateful to both of these incredible people... two key figures early in my career, and for their unwavering support through life's ups and downs. Celebrating 8 amazing years with Salesforce this week! 🎉 Worked alongside incredible colleagues, managers, and mentors who feel like family. Personal growth paralleled professional milestones. Maintaining work-life balance is paramount. Recently, I section-hiked 63 miles of the Appalachian Trail with my life partner 💕 – he has been an unexpected joy, strength, my other half, and my favorite adventure. The hike tested resilience and determination, teaching that challenges, at work and in life, are surmountable with grit and perseverance. 💪 At Salesforce, I experienced highs and lows, with Career Coaching as a game-changer. Aligning mind, body, heart, and soul transformed the work approach, making it more fulfilling and rewarding. 🚀 This journey transitioned from Salesforce Government Cloud in D.C. to Data and AI, particularly in Data Cloud. Excited about the endless possibilities and visibility this new path brings. Cheers to 8 years of growth and the milestones awaiting ahead! 🌟 #Salesforce #CareerGrowth #WorkLifeBalance
