My current title is "CRM Administrator." I'm our Tessitura DB, essentially. I have some SQL knowledge, but I'm not writing custom reports or stored procedures. But I do all FY and performance builds; I am responsible for TNEW content; I'm currently the only one building analytics dashboards; I do all training and onboarding; I maintain documentation of our system policies and procedures. My boss has never liked my title and thinks it should be Database Manager. I'm curious -- if your job sounds like mine, what is your title?
My unofficial title is Tessitura Queen (lol!), but officially, I'm the DBA - Database Administrator, though I'm called the Database Manager pretty interchangeably. Which doesn't really fit - I'm kind of a jack of all trades, master of some when it comes to the mid-to-back end of Tessitura. I lead our power users who do all of the regular setup and pull figures, but i'll take care of one-off things like facility builds, or anything that touches multiple departments like gl codes, and the security module. I train the people who train new users, and do some documentation. I also do some SQL and write some reports, but nothing complex. And administer TNEW - I'm afraid to let too many other people into it because there's no security for that - you either have all of it, or none of it. I think CRM Manager would fit a bit better. DBA is too technical/nerdy and Data Services is too 'soft' and doesn't represent the technical I *can* do. But I'm also trying to lead a crusade for an "application services" role that manages all of the major systems we use (aside from NetSuite - Finance can keep that one!)
Hahah! My unofficial title is the Tessitura Wizard. My old co-worker even made me a sign that said it LOL. I think we should petition for official changes Kathleen Smith
I have been called a wizard more than once as well...I'd take that title!
It might be this energy
I get Tessitura Guru a lot! Also the ever popular "Chelsea we need you!"
on my less charitable days, I think of myself and my tess power users as Sauron with the One Ring, and the Rings of Power...
An old coworker referred to me as "Tessitura Grand Empress"
I would like to petition for that to be my new title.
