This is not so much one specific idea, but our organization is gearing up for a full roll out of Smartsheet on Feb. 01 as our new project management platform and document repository. Adoption is going to take some time, but having spent the last two months running user trainings, I am optimistic it will catch on quick.

I am really looking forward to adding capabilities to centrally utilize the automation of Smartsheet widgets on the dashboards so our customers can have an ease of experience that will improve engagement.

During the last quarter of 2025, I developed a Tester 's Dashboard for End to End Testing utilizing Dynamic View and Current User view to provide a "one stop shop" tester centered process, providing each tester with their own view. During the first half of 2026, I will look to develop the next iteration and learn more about the possibilities with Dynamic View

In 2026, I’m excited to focus on designing Smartsheet solutions that actively guide teams, not just track work.

That means cleaner status logic, smarter workflows, and dashboards that make the next action obvious reducing manual decision-making and noise. Fewer clicks, fewer questions, and more confidence that the system reflects reality.

Looking forward to learning from others who are pushing Smartsheet toward clarity and scale this year.

This may seem silly, but I have always seen the recommendations to maximize PTO, and I have never done that right from the start. I have just waited to see what is happening. This year I would like to commit to myself that I deserve that time, whether there is something to do or not.

What is one new idea that you're excited to put into practice in 2026?

For me, I'm looking to DO LESS. I've spent the last few years saying yes to everything asked of me, regardless of my bandwidth. In trying to do more (actually trying to do it ALL), it's actually fed into serious burnout and limited my ability to do the things that make me happy or bring true value to my life.

I'm not looking to "give up" by doing less, but rather to focus on quality over quantity. I want to do more of what matters and do it well as opposed to trying to do everything for everyone. In doing less, my intention is to respect my own boundaries, lean into my values and skills, and find joy in simplicity.

That said, I also want to step up my flossing game. :)

I like to be organized but self care usually takes a back burner for the family and work needs, so I put a habit tracker in my planner of only self care things: Make the bed, open all the windows for 15 mins a day, less than 4 hrs social media for the day, pick up the nighttime skincare routine I've been on and off of. So far it's working pretty well because I enjoy coloring my little boxes in the morning and being more conscious of taking care of myself in little ways to start.

Hi all-

I want to work on improving my abilities in Smartsheet to help present data as a story instead of a bunch of charts, graphs and numbers.

Happy New Year!

I’m excited to take forward in 2026 the work I and my team has been developing to automate Smartsheet administrative insights. This initiative focuses on providing proactive visibility into user access, governance, and platform usage, with the objective of enabling data-driven decisions and identifying optimization opportunities at an enterprise level.

I am excited to leverage the new dropdown features that have come out towards the end of last year plus the new drop down features coming in 2026. Features that make it easier to update dropdown lists across numerous sheets and hopefully conditional drop downs later this year are going to bring amazing value to my existing and future builds
