Volunteer Spotlight: Mike Riley
John King, King Training Resources

The latest ODTUG Volunteer Spotlight focuses on Mike Riley. You probably know Mike as the past president of ODTUG (2009-2012) or ODTUG Kscope Conference Chair (2008, 2013-2014). You might even know he was once trapped in an elevator at Oracle OpenWorld 2008 with then-UKOUG President Debra Lilley for two hours until someone from Oracle Support saw her social media plea for help on OTN’s Oracle Mix and called the hotel to rescue them. You might even know Mike through his work as an Oracle ACE.

I was amazed to discover Mike had never been the subject of ODTUG’s Volunteer Spotlight before, pretty surprising for a guy who has been at the heart of ODTUG for years. In fact, Mike has overseen the transformation of ODTUG into one of the largest Oracle user groups in the world and expanded the always-super ODTUG Kaleidoscope Conference into the world-best ODTUG Kscope conference we know today. Kscope has grown so successful that it is known as one of the “big six” conferences to Oracle’s product managers and management.

Mike was even the original author of the ODTUG Technical Journal Volunteer Spotlight column (what goes around, comes around).
