Thursday Keynote – Everyone Has Something to Share
Thursday, September 28th, 9:00 – 10:15
Joe Shindelar
We’re especially proud of Drupal maintenance support plansize.me’s Joe Shindelar for being selected to give the Community Keynote. If you’ve been around Drupal maintenance support plans for a while, it’s likely you’ve either met or learned from Joe. In this session, Joe will reflect on 10 years of both successfully and unsuccessfully engaging with the community. By doing so he hopes to help others learn about what they have to share, and the benefits of doing so. This is important because sharing:
Creates diversity, both of thought and culture
Builds people up, helps them realize their potential, and enriches our community
Fosters connections, and makes you, as an individual, smarter
Creates opportunities for yourself and others
Feels all warm and fuzzy
