Questions & Answers about Estoy agradecido de haber compartido este logro con ustedes.

Why do we use haber compartido instead of just compartir?

Haber compartido is the perfect infinitive (to have shared). You use it here because the action of sharing happened before the feeling of gratitude. If you said estoy agradecido de compartir, it would mean you are grateful to be sharing it right now.

Could I say agradecido por instead of agradecido de?

Yes, but there is a structural difference. You generally use agradecido por before a noun (like agradecido por el premio). When an infinitive verb follows, agradecido de is the standard and most natural choice.

Does agradecido change depending on who is speaking?

Yes. Because agradecido acts as an adjective describing the speaker, a female speaker must change the ending to match her gender, saying estoy agradecida.

How do we know if con ustedes refers to a formal or informal group?

In Latin American Spanish, you cannot tell from this sentence alone. Ustedes is used as the plural form of "you" for everyone, whether you are addressing a group of close friends or a board of directors.
