Oh, the joy that bubbles up within me as I behold the author copies of my first published book - it's a feeling that's incredibly hard to put into words. I've been yearning for this moment since 2009 when I embarked on my journey with Odoo, a technology that I have come to love and admire.
Seeing how Odoo transforms millions of businesses globally is nothing short of awe-inspiring. I count myself fortunate to have played a pivotal role in this transformational journey for many of my clients. The process of upgrading Odoo to the latest version is a critical step in its implementation. I began my career at Odoo SA, known as OpenERP back then in 2009. I led one of the largest teams, writing migration scripts, understanding the nuances, and plunging into the fascinating world of this technology.
Following my tenure at Odoo SA, I served in top positions across multiple reputed organizations, imparting and utilizing my profound knowledge of Odoo. In 2016, I made a defining move – starting my own company. Since then, it's been a journey of growth and enlightenment, serving hundreds of clients across more than 40 countries.
I've always been a believer in the power of shared knowledge. So, as I stood at the helm of a decade-plus experience, with lessons learned from 500+ clients, an idea sparked in my mind - to pen down my journey and share my insights with the world. I dreamt of a book that would encapsulate my hard-earned wisdom, a guide for the future generation venturing into the world of Odoo. And, today, that dream has become a tangible reality.
To make this dream a reality, I owe a great deal of gratitude. I am deeply thankful to my business partner, who has been my rock, steadfast in their support and belief in my vision. My dedicated team, who've been instrumental in making this venture a success, deserve a special mention. Their relentless hard work, dedication, and enthusiasm have been a driving force.
Last, but certainly not least, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to my family members. They've been my safe harbor, my source of inspiration, and strength throughout this journey. Their unwavering faith in me has kept me grounded and motivated, even in the face of the toughest challenges.
Today, as I hold my book, I see not just a compilation of pages and text. I see a reflection of my journey, my passion, my dedication, and the countless hands that helped make it possible. I feel immense pride and exhilaration, and I hope this book serves as a guiding light for many, as they explore the transformative world of Odoo. I eagerly await the impact and difference it will make in the world.
Looking ahead, I am excited about the countless possibilities that lie ahead. I am motivated to explore, learn, and share even more with the world. Because, in the end, we rise by lifting others, and today, I am proud to have contributed my part to that collective ascent.
