Anne’s Thoughts
Quest Blueprint 4D In-Person Experience

What an experience attending Quest Blueprint 4D as my first in-person conference since 2019. Honestly, I had nerves right before, but in the end, I was happy I chose to present in person. We have adapted well to video conferencing tools, but I miss the personable interactions. The energy felt in a room also can’t be experienced without being there in person. When presenting to the audience, their expressions helped me know if what I was talking about was well received. I especially loved seeing the smiles and excitement when demoing Payroll for North America roadmap items.

We did have some technology challenges for the virtual portion. Quest will redeliver the event in mid-July for the PeopleSoft team content. Please be on the lookout for re-recorded sessions.
