The Digital Transformation(ists) Podcast

Howdy friends! You are listening to The Digital Transformation(ists) Podcast, where we get curious together about what technology is teaching us about human ingenuity, resilience, and the mysterious force that magnetizes us towards connection with one another. Together with our host Christian Lane, founding partner of Praecipio Consulting, our co-host G.Love, Grammy-nominated artist, and our incredible guests, we embark on a journey to better understand technology's role in amplifying connection between us all. We'll hear from technologists, practitioners, revolutionaries, innovators, environmentalists, artists, and more, all sharing their experiences with technology and how it's affected their lives and industries. In this episode, we continue with our Team Series and spotlight the inimitable Shannon Fabert, Principal of Managed Services and Managed Hosting at Praecipio Consulting. With her deep experience in process management, Shannon leads an entirely remote team of brilliant people that help organizations crush their Atlassian game. When she's not improving processes and creating value for our clients, Shannon stays active in our internal Social Justice group, leading the charge for creating conversations and consciousness around social issues in the workplace. We chat with Shannon about technology has transformed the consulting space, the people in her life that have inspired her activism, and how to stay human and drive positive change in a digitally connected world. She also shares her experience with running a political campaign (using Confluence, nonetheless!) and what it taught her about the role that technology plays in shaping public policy.

In this episode, we continue with our Team Series and spotlight one of our very own from the podcast team: Executive Producer and Marketing Director, Katie Thomas. With Katie on the other side of the mic, she chats with Christian and G. Love about how digital transformation has changed the way we communicate and share our stories with the world around us. We talk about how technology enables teams to foster a culture of openness and collaboration, why good processes are key to helping companies deliver value and achieve awesome-ness, and the challenges and rewards of building a podcast with a crew and guests scattered all across the planet!

In this episode, we continue with our Team Series and spotlight one of our favorite people: Amanda Babb, a true Praecipio Consulting legend. A self-proclaimed Agile evangelist with a solid 15+ year track record in helping enterprise organizations streamline their operations, Amanda has worked closely with Atlassian to build Praecipio Consulting's Jira Align practice and made digital transformation possible for our clients across different industries. We chat with Amanda about how to apply Agile for tasks outside of work, the intersection of remote work and digital transformation, and her favorite internal Slack channels. With her adorable dog friends Leonard and Howard, catch a glimpse of our resident Agile Rockstar cooking delicious dishes or working on her glorious El Camino she rebuilt from scratch.

In this episode, we are thrilled and honored to welcome Carol Thompson, a trailblazing entrepreneur and iconic Austin tech personality that exemplifies the city's forward thinking and easygoing attitude. Carol has been witness to the city's impressive growth, being part of critical initiatives that have lured some of the world's top tech companies to open shop and make Austin their home. We talk about the nerd bird and Austin's ties to California, the role the University of Texas has had in attracting talent and ideas, mentoring as a way to stay relevant, and the hidden gems the city offers for those who veer off the beaten path.

In this episode, we are switching things up, and profiling some of the amazing people that are part of the very special team that makes up Praecipio Consulting. We are thrilled and honored to welcome Bryan Robison, Principal Architect in Tech Delivery. Bryan has been part of the Praecipio Consulting team for more than 7 years. His knowledge of software development is as vast as it's deep, and he brings a wide variety of talents to the team. Bryan's extensive background in technology was ignited when he built a website for his friend's band, way back in 1997.
