Hi Folks. My Name is Mark Deegan and I am the CEO of Wigmore IT Group Before becoming CEO I was a Gainsight Architect With over 4 years of Experience and Over 200 Client Engagements. But my story with Customer Success and AI goes back a lot longer than that. In fact I was first exposed to Customer Success and Artificial Intelligence at the same time at the same company over 7 years ago.Artificial Intelligence is nothing new - But it has become more prevalent - Generative AI was an absolute ATOMIC BOMB when it was launched and the Industry is struggling to keep up - At the same time - Every Organisation worth their salt is trying to leverage AI to drive better outcomes for both their internal processes and their outcomes. I first got exposure to AI working for a Digital Personalisation Company who leveaged AI to deliver personalisation at scale to some of the biggest brands globally, including Emirates, Air New Zealand and Triva

Last week at Pulse, I had the incredible opportunity to share insights and strategies on running a strategic cadence call. It was an engaging session, and I want to express my gratitude to everyone who attended.

Hey CommunityI hope this message finds you all in high spirits! ✨ I'm thrilled to share my experience at Pulse Europe 2023—an unforgettable journey that was nothing short of phenomenal. 🚀 I’ve always been wanting to attend Pulse since God knows how long but 2023 was the year it finally happened. And boy-o-boy what an event it was. From all the great sessions by distinguished speakers, networking with all the admins whom I’ve regularly been talking to on zoom or slack community (it’s always great to have a face to a name, right?) and my friends from Gainsight where I had worked for almost 5 years.  🌍 The Global GatheringPulse Europe brought together brilliant minds from all corners of the globe, transforming the event into a melting pot of ideas, cultures, and perspectives. The energy was palpable as participants, speakers, and industry leaders converged to create an atmosphere buzzing with innovation and celebration.

It’s budgeting season! I’m looking ahead to next year and wondering if anyone could compare Pulse San Francisco to Pulse Amsterdam for me?  Is it a Disneyworld versus Disneyland thing or a Disneyland versus Canada’s Wonderland thing?
