Shout-outs

To the Services Team

Shout out to Jess Buller for her collaboration during our recent RWJBH Values Crowdsourcing Initiative! This project started many months ago while I was out of office. Jess worked with me throughout the handover as well as during the time that the project grew in scope and complexity. As a result, we were able to confidently highlight risks to RWJโ€™s success. They accepted our guidance, re-aligned, and achieved their goal of gathering meaningful data on the organizationโ€™s climate and values acquisition. Thanks, Jess!

To the I.T. Team

Shout out to the IT team. Dawid Hart and Kirsty Airey, you are always happy to help and make it a smooth process and are quick to answer even the smallest questions or concerns. So a massive thank you and you guys are amazing ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

To the Product Team

Shout out for Olivia Boston, supporting patiently with many core content queries, always responsive and helpful ๐Ÿ˜Š

From Gemma Harvey

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you all for the incredible work you've done to make our products more accessible over the past six months.

From the development of the PowerPoint and PDF accessibility tool that guides designers through many checkpoints to the thoughtful decisions around performance booster formats and alternative content like audiobooks for Fluidbooks, your efforts have made a real difference. The commitment to achieving WCAG 2.1 AA standards, and the proactive approach to client-specific accessibility needs, has not gone unnoticed.

Your collaboration across creative design, instructional, and the product teams has been inspiring. Itโ€™s clear that accessibility isnโ€™t just a checkbox for us; itโ€™s a core part of how we build and deliver meaningful experiences. Thank you for your dedication and creativity. Iโ€™m excited to see how we continue to evolve and lead in this space.
