Please join us in congratulating Radu S., the Dynatrace Employee Member of the Month for January 2019! ![19305-radu.jpg](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/dynatrace/original/3X/2/9/293db5750c40a59457309a18e56f47287ce40213.jpeg) If you visit Dynatrace forums regularly, we’re sure you’re familiar with Radu’s contributions. Radu is a Lead Consultant within the EMEA Services team, which empowers customers to master their digital performance. His engagements range widely and may cover anything from product deployments and configuration, through delivering training courses, to embedding Dynatrace within organizations’ own processes so that performance management becomes the heart of their business. Radu is passionate about seeing customers through their digital transformation journey, assisting them at each stage, and witnessing the amazement that comes when great tools are used in great ways. Being involved with many customers gives Radu the opportunity to work with Dynatrace, AppMon, Synthetic Classic, and NAM, but his top ones are definitely Dynatrace and AppMon. Radu’s Community activity varies from answering and commenting questions to submitting product ideas and voting for other’s contributions. He’s an advocate of knowledge sharing and has his own recipe for doing it regularly: _“__I firmly believe that knowledge should be shared, and the more people get involved, the better our knowledge base becomes; I’m also hoping that my contribution encourages others to contribute more as well. I even have this little routine where I scroll through the forums’ headlines while having my morning coffee – on some posts I’ll be able to answer or comment, others will make for an interesting read, other posts might be situations that I haven’t got a clue how to help and I’ll hit the ‘follow’ button to stay tuned for an answer.__”_ When asked what he likes best about the Community, Radu said: _“__With the new stack of technologies, the landscape is so much more diverse that it’s impossible to have hands on experience working with all of them. The Community is the perfect place to keep up to date with any tricky situations others may have faced in the field and gives you a reference point in case you will face similar situations later on. We also have amazingly talented people watching these posts and contributing with quality information.”_ Outside of work, Radu loves travelling, seeing new places and learning about other people’s cultures. Radu also surfs whenever he gets the chance. _“Many times the two go hand in hand and you can find great waves in very interesting places”_, he says. ![19306-radu-s.jpg](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/dynatrace/original/2X/c/cd55e444f8c8b5db4c7bbb6406ee15865f760e63.jpeg) Radu, thank you for building the Dynatrace Community into a valuable place for all Dynatrace users! Once again, congratulations! ---
