Community Corner Newsletter [April 2024]
Hey hey everyone, Rebeca here.
I’m back to introduce April’s newsletter, and I’ve got a lot to share with you, including new topics, badges and a giveaway. But first things first, big shout out to @Genevieve P. for the great March issue. She really inspired me to explore my country even more with the eyes of a tourist!
Now, let’s get started with all the Community news you need to know. 😁

Pass the mic 🎤 Community Champions
Community Champions are members who demonstrate product expertise and generosity in sharing best practices and support with others on the platform.
"Be as clear as possible in both your questions and your answers. Also, if the conversation is becoming more than one or two exchanges, check out the other person's signature block and reach out to them offline for more detailed discussions. And then don't forget to recap it back on the forum thread to explain the outcome so others can learn as well."

Overachiever's Motivation Mix
The Smartsheet Overachievers are here to give you the songs that will keep you going and keep you achieving! Here’s what’s on the playlist right now.
"I love this song and this fantastic video because it so clearly shows that regardless of external difficulties, you can always find an inner resolve to get through each day with your positivity intact. If there’s a peacefulness you can find at your center, you can make it through any challenge and thrive."
- Emely Grisanty (@EmelyG), Senior Project Manager, Technology Solutions at Avison Young and Second Year Overachiever

More about me:
One of my goals for 2024 is to expand my horizons, cultivate new hobbies and skills, and to not be afraid of being a beginner with a lot to learn.
I’m lucky to live in an area with lots of cool things to do, so my only issue was choosing what to do first. However, when I discovered a newly opened pottery studio, I knew it was the perfect place to start. My first project was the cup you see in the photo, and I’ll definitely go back to keep on improving, and learning new techniques. I also look forward to showing my results to our team’s pottery expert — Genevieve!
Next, I decided to get myself a rosemary plant. I don’t have a green thumb (at all) but I’ve wanted to try for a long time, so here’s hoping my plant will thrive in the end. I’ll also attend a watercolors class this weekend, but I welcome suggestions for what I should try out next. 👀
Learning something new can be intimidating, but it’s also fun to have a whole new world to discover, so don’t ever let that discourage you!
Have you tried anything new recently?

This is super helpful. While it might seem minor, those dashboard widgets and their rigidity (which is slowly going away) are an impediment to some adoption. Thank you!

The new language support (alongside the really cool badges) are a nice addition to the Smartsheet platform, and reflects how Smartsheet's scope is global!
