Get to Know Brianne Berogan
What is your favorite type of Slate project?
Anything that makes the user say “wait, but what if we…?!” That’s when the magic happens. I love any project, big or small, that encourages a team to think outside the box. Small steps can lead to big results.
What is one Slate thing you are proud of?
I’m most proud of how I was able to create processes for my institution that reduced time and opened doors for new projects. If a project took a week to do using our old system, it would maybe take only 4 hours in Slate. It was so gratifying to build solutions for the team that saved time and energy, regardless of how big or small the project was.
What advice would you give to new Slate captains?
Take the time to clean up your data before you move it to Slate. You will not regret the investment of time and energy! Life will be exponentially better if you clean up all of those “I wish this was different” items ahead of time. And don’t be afraid to leave bad data behind if there’s not time/staff available to tackle a particular cleanup project and your business processes can allow for a “fresh start.”
