Everyone in the Loop: A Candid Panel on Information Sharing That Actually Works

Wednesday September 16, 2026 14:15 - 15:00 EDT Richardson CD

Speakers: Amanda Congdon, Chris Hunjas, Tony Sheehan

Track: Enterprise

You manage the system. But keeping your whole organization informed, aligned, and using Momentus the right way? That's a different challenge entirely.

In this peer panel, four Momentus application administrators share the strategies, tools, and workarounds they've developed to communicate across their organizations, from rolling out system changes without the flood of confused tickets, to getting leadership the information they need without handing them system access they don't need.

This is a candid, practical conversation with people who have the same job you do. Expect real examples, honest lessons learned, and ideas you can put to work before you get back to the office.
