Community Members - Do you have a Blackbaud Employee you want to badge?

Elizabeth Perron

Hi Members,

In Blackbaud we have an internal badge system. I usually hand out badges to my Blackbaud peers who build content that you all like a lot or view a lot or a Blackbaud staff product manager who responds when you all @mention them in the Community. These badges mean a lot to our employees (just like our Community badges.)

Do you have a Blackbaud Staff member in the Community that you would like me to give them an internal badge?

If so, just let me know their name and a few words about why.

In harmony and inclusion,
Elizabeth

Jeannie Goings

Naomi Harding ... hands down one of the best BBU instructors. No nonsense approach and willing to explore challenges. Because she knows the material so well, she is able to explore real user challenges during class AND cover the course material without feeling rushed or incomplete.

Marie Stark

Tim Newborn, because he does such a great job with Blackbaud Champions.

Faith Murray

Crystal Bruce, because she's always on top of our forums and keeping everything in the right categories, so we can get our questions answered!

Bobby Steurer

Not sure if he still works for Blackbaud, but a couple of years ago, I had the best Support experience I've ever had with Eli Irvin‍ . His attention to detail, kind demeanor, and general good spirit made my entire day better. I remember telling my boss that I wish the world had more Eli's.

Thank you, Faith!

Tina Pappas

Two people who have had a huge impact on me are Carlton Cohen‍ and Michele Lobdell‍ for the same reason. They're both deeply knowledgeable, endlessly patient and incredibly nice. I appreciate every interaction I've had with them.

Carlton Cohen

Tina Pappas‍ You just made my day! Greatly appreciated and I hope you are well!

I second this! Tim is always kind, responsive, and inclusive in his interactions with Champions.

Dan Snyder

Ben Lambert‍. He and his team are working hard to make our lives easier with automations in Power Automate and extending RENXT with our own custom tiles. When we inevitably get stuck somewhere, Ben is often the one to respond.

Ben Lambert

Thank you Dan, much appreciated!!

Sannyasin Siddhanathaswami

I've noticed the developers have fixed a bunch of the bugs (and issues) with the new NXT reporting and followed many of the recommendations of the community. Thank you so much!

Heather MacKenzie

I also came here to say Naomi Harding‍ as Jeannie did, and for the same reasons. I just had my first class with her in May and can't wait for more!

Naomi Harding

Thank you so much, Heather! I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed our session and I look forward to seeing you in future classes!

Jenny Marquardt

Matt Connell - he is the ultimate trainer! So knowledgeable, personal, patient, kind, clear in his instructions!
