I couldn’t help but notice how many companies talk about churn like a breakup they still haven’t fully processed. “We lost them because of budget.” “Priorities shifted.” “It just wasn’t the right timing.” And maybe sometimes that’s true. But sometimes… that’s just the cleaner version of the story. Because relationships usually start breaking down long before someone officially leaves. In communication. In consistency. In value. In trust. In the subtle moments where momentum quietly disappears. And honestly? That’s why I found my conversation with IcebergIQ so interesting leading into Pulse Vegas. They’re focused on the human side of churn. The deeper story underneath the dashboard explanation. The part most companies never fully investigate because once the customer leaves, everyone moves on to the next fire. But I couldn’t help but wonder… How many companies are treating churn like a reporting metric instead of a relationship story? Anyway 😂 if this conversation is your type of tea: ✔ Natasha Narayan and Ruben Rabago speaking at Innovation Theater ✔ signed books at the booth ✔ happy hour Tuesday night ✔ and probably some very smart conversations about retention and customer behavior Gainsight #PULSE2026 #CustomerSuccess #CHURN

🚀 Leveling up: I’m officially a #DevOps Bootcamp graduate! I am thrilled to share that I have officially completed "The Ultimate DevOps Bootcamp" on Udemy , led by Mumshad Mannambeth and the KodeKloud team! Over the last 17.5 hours of intensive learning, I’ve dived deep into the world of automation, orchestration, and CI/CD. This journey wasn’t just about watching videos—it was about understanding the cultural and technical shift that allows teams to deliver high-quality software at speed. Key areas I’ve been focusing on: ⚙️ CI/CD Pipelines: Streamlining the path from code to production. 🐳 Containerization: Mastering Docker and the fundamentals of Kubernetes. 🛠️ Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Automating environments for scale and consistency. 📈 Monitoring & Security: Ensuring systems are resilient and secure. A huge thank you to Mumshad Mannambeth for the incredible, hands-on labs that made complex concepts feel intuitive. I’m excited to take these skills and apply them to real-world challenges, helping build faster, more reliable systems. The learning never stops! #DevOps #ContinuousLearning #Udemy #KodeKloud #CloudComputing #Automation #TechJourney #CareerGrowth

Workspace booking is shifting from search to intent. That’s a more important change than it sounds. Most booking platforms assume the user knows exactly what they want. Location, budget, room type, timing, team size. In reality, most people start with something much less structured: "I need a place near two teammates." "Not too far from home." "Good for a planning session." "Not absurdly expensive." That’s not really a search query. It’s a half-formed decision. This is why chat-first booking feels like a real product shift to me. Not because chat is trendy, but because it matches the way people actually think before they book. It's not so much about replacing every booking app with AI. It’s about reducing the effort required to turn vague intent into a confident decision.

Croissant’s April product updates are a snapshot of where hybrid work is going. More team coordination. Better policy. Greater visibility. Less manual admin. That’s the direction I’d bet on: companies treating workspace with a lot more intention than they did 12 months ago.

Are you aware of invisible agents in your organization?

As AI agents become more prolific, I think "Tasks" are going to decouple from "jobs" Your job will remain the same -- you'll still be responsible for the outcomes you generate.... but the specific tasks you have to do will likely change and be augmented by AI

People often ask me “where is the party at?” I usually respond: “No clue. I’m in bed by 8:30pm… I’ve got a human alarm clock.” April 15th is an exception. It’s the only “party” I’ll be at… at 9am. We’re unveiling what we’ve been building at Croissant—and why workspace is about to be managed very differently. Details below.
