A fond farewell 💙

Michael_S — Wed, 20 May 2026 21:10:58 GMT

Hello SS&C Blue Prism Community 👋

Three years ago, I joined Blue Prism (!) to serve this incredible community of RPA and Intelligent Automation professionals across the world. It's been nothing short of an honour.

Sadly, my time has come to an end, and I wanted to say the very fondest of farewells to you all. Whether you helped to defeat evil bosses, took up the role of wise sages, exorcised the demons of RPA hyperbole on hallowe'en, celebrated your automation victories - or even just helped one of our 70,000 fellow automators get past the blocker of the day - I want to thank you all for making the SS&C Blue Prism Community the kindest, most helpful (and, on occassion, weirdest and wonderful-est) place on the internet.

I leave you firstly in the expert and caring hands of @Amy_T, and secondly in the arms of our supporting cast of subject matter experts across SS&C who read, respond and act upon the questions and feedback shared here every day.

Final words - my favourite phrase has been, and always will be, remember the human. Automation, orchestration, AI and all the incredible technologies still to come are worth naught if we forget why we made them in the first place - to make human lives better. Remember the human, in everything you automate.

Thank you for letting me be your voice, and for being mine many times over.

All my best,

@Michael_S

Hello Michael, I really had great time working with you on multiple community events in past years. You have always been so kind and helpful for each of us. You always tried hard to make the tool and community go next level by bringing the team together.

I wish you all the best for the future.

Definitely will stay in touch as what matters at the end is the HUMAN in all of us 💙

Thank you so much for everything! 🫡
