Show Notes
Ever wonder how someone leaps from an art history degree to leading automation in the MSP world? In this episode, Tara Rummer, Channel Captain at Immy Bot and Advisor with Immense Networks, sits down to unpack her real journey—facing down imposter syndrome, championing neurodiversity, and finding her “aggressively friendly” groove. From early days building operational processes for an MSP to becoming the face of rapid automation, Tara shares what makes her tick and why authentic conversations matter now more than ever.
In our chat, we dive into what sets Immy Bot apart from tools like Chocolatey and Ninite, the challenge (and the payoff) of transparent leadership, and why workplace culture wins over quick fixes every time. Plus, Tara reflects on the importance of supporting neurodiverse individuals in IT and how her LinkedIn mantra—“Hi, friends, foes, wizards, warlocks and jelly cat enthusiasts!”—is all about making everyone feel welcome. Definitely an episode packed with heart, strategy, and stories you don’t hear every day.
