Jim Grisanzio works at Oracle on the Java Developer Relations Team in the Java Platform Group, which is the engineering organization building Java. He hosts the Duke’s Corner Podcast, publishes the Inside Java Newsletter, produces video and photography, facilitates the Java User Group and Java Champions programs, delivers community sessions at events, and contributes to the team’s community development programs.

In recent years while in Oracle developer marketing, Jim managed the Oracle Developers YouTube channel and multiple social media platforms. He also hosted the Oracle Groundbreakers Podcast, produced videos and live streams, delivered presentations, managed events, and published the Database and Java newsletters. From 2017 to present Jim has interviewed more than 450 developers via live streams, podcasts, and videos on a variety of technologies including Java, Linux, Oracle Database, MySQL, AI, Developer Tools, Cloud, and Open Source.

Before Oracle developer marketing, Jim worked in Solaris engineering managing FOSS projects delivering into the operating system. He was also the OpenSolaris Community Manager at Sun Microsystems from the project’s inception until the acquisition by Oracle. He directed Solaris engineering projects with corporate partners, managed Linux and OpenSolaris user groups, presented at universities and conferences, briefed press and analysts, and ran developer events. Earlier at Sun, Jim managed competitive marketing campaigns for all of Sun’s Open Source and Open Standards projects. He also wrote keynote speeches and managed communications for Sun’s CMO and other senior executives.

Jim’s academic background covers science and technical writing, publications production, health care policy, and history. He’s edited software and medical newsletters; written hundreds of magazine articles and press releases; and collaborated with engineers, scientists, physicians, and veterinarians in academia and biotechnology. He’s also worked with the global news media and American government officials at local, state, and federal levels — including The White House — while running hardware, software, and biomedical publicity programs for multiple companies and universities.

Jim’s foundational experience in managing complex projects came from working in the real estate development business in New York. He sold residential homes and raw land; hired and managed construction crews; acquired the legal and financial approvals necessary for building; and worked closely with political, municipal, regulatory, and banking officials to finalize closings. He also ran his own excavating and trucking company — he purchased equipment worth hundreds of thousands of dollars; worked on hundreds of commercial and residential sites; negotiated contracts with all stakeholders; and managed operations with customers, vendors, governments, and multiple national unions.

Jim knows well what it’s like for everything to crash completely and require rebuilding from scratch. That’s why he has a varied background. He never gives up. He just keeps building.

You can find Jim via your favorite search engine or on X @jimgris. More on Jim’s background can be found on his website on WordPress.

Sagen, was Sache ist. Machen, was nötig ist.

Björn spricht über mutige Strategien jenseits klassischer Transformation, moderne Führung und Verantwortung in digitalen Zeiten. Seine Perspektive: Wandel beginnt mit Klarheit - nicht mit PowerPoint.
Statt alte Systeme mühsam zu modernisieren, setzt Björn mit Whiskey Tango Foxtrot auf substanzielle Veränderungsprozesse. Nach dem Exit von sum.cumo wurde alles hinterfragt - von Technologie bis Führung.
Heute steht Whiskey Tango Foxtrot für Klarheit, Verantwortung und echte Innovationsfreiheit. Kein Transformations-Sprech, sondern ehrliche Arbeit mit Wirkung -  kein Sprint, sondern ein Marathon.

Diesen Ansatz bringt Björn auch in andere Unternehmen: als Impulsgeber, Sparringspartner und Mitgestalter. Ob Neugründung oder Reorganisation, mit Björn entstehen aus Mut, Erfahrung und Klarheit zukunftsfähige Modelle, die wirken.
Als Speaker spricht Björn über mutige Strategien jenseits klassischer Transformation, unternehmerische Verantwortung und moderne Formen der Zusammenarbeit. Praxisnah, meinungsstark und mit klarem Blick für das, was Unternehmen heute (und morgen) wirklich weiterbringt.
