Taking it on Faith - The Journey of a Jira Admin

This week the TJL crew sits down with Kayode Faith, a longtime Jira admin who's just launched his own podcast, The New Shape of Work and had one of the TJL crew members as his first guest (guess who!?). Kayode opens up about how a recent summit completely changed his perspective on Forge, and the crew swaps stories about the unexpected professional relationships and friendships that come out of these events.From there, the conversation turns reflective: Kayode looks back at how the Atlassian ecosystem has evolved over his six years as a Jira admin, and shares what he's most excited about going forward — starting with never having to do another nerve-wracking Jira Data Center upgrade again. The crew also digs into the real-world frustrations of working in this space, including Kayode's experience supporting a nonprofit client with little to no budget for essential apps, including backup solutions for Jira and Confluence Cloud.Expect candid stories, shared scars, and plenty of laughs as the crew welcomes a fellow admin (and fellow podcaster) into the fold.Thank you to ikuTeam for connecting and collaborating with The Jira Life. https://ikuteam.comThe Jira Life=====================================Having trouble keeping up with when we are live?
