Workplace Skills Series: Attendance and Self-presentation, Career Advancement...Illinois workNet
To succeed in the workplace, it is important to possess certain skills. You can gain those skills through experience and training. Often, employers provide you with additional technical training. However, it is up to you to demonstrate that you have soft skills, such as a good work ethic and a great attitude. This series of three webinars will address the most important soft skills that you need.
This session from September 9th covered Attendance and Self-presentation, Career Advancement, and Communications.
Sara Blakely: 5 Attributes of an EntrepreneurOM3283
This is a final presentation by a student in John Brown University's OM3283 course. The content of these slides represents the findings and opinions of the student, not the university.
Topic of this short talk: team / group dynamics. The point is that you need to be aware of any dynamics happening in your team / group.
Contents of the presentation:
Slide 1: Intro video (ants)
Slide 2: Teamwork
Teamwork is the corner stone of any successful undertaking.
Teamwork is an individual skill.
The purpose of this talk is to make you aware of the importance of team dynamics.
We will look at some examples, and how we can explore team dynamics.
Slide 3: How does a high-performing team look like?
Diverse members
Diversity of viewpoints, opinions
Open and clear communication
Managing conflict
Clear objectives
Trust
Participative leadership
Positive atmosphere
Engagement
Slide 4: Putting a group of people together does not make a team.
Slide 5: Model of group/team development: Tuckman (1965)
Note: the different phases of growing as a team are necessary to become “performing”
Slide 6: Belbin team roles (1981)
9 team roles: an effective team has members that cover the 9 key roles in managing the team
Slide 7: Communication inside the team is a key indicator of whether they are performing or not. The quality of communication in the team will also directly affect the communication with the stakeholders.
Slide 8: One bad apple can cause rot in the entire cart by altering the behaviour of everyone.
examples: the passive-aggressive group eroder, the blunt/rude dominant, the controller, the slacker, the anti-establishment guy, the divide-and-conquer schemer, the arrogant fat head
Slide 9: Groupthink, a term coined by social psychologist Irving Janis (1972), occurs when a group makes faulty decisions because group pressures lead to a deterioration of “mental efficiency, reality testing, and moral judgment”.
Groups affected by groupthink ignore alternatives and tend to take irrational actions that dehumanise other groups. A group is especially vulnerable to groupthink when its members are similar in background, when the group is insulated from outside opinions, and when there are no clear rules for decision making.
Cf. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groupthink
Slide 10: How to explore team dynamics?
Listen to the way team members are communicating
Observe behaviours: can you recognise certain team roles? Who has an introvert personality, who’s extrovert?
Observe how conflict is managed
Slide 11: Don't be a Scrum Zombie (Thanks to Henrik Kniberg)
Slide 12: How to explore team dynamics? Team building, a classic scrum.
Slide 13, 14, 15: How to explore team dynamics? Team drawer
A team building exercise.

Slide 17: Quote by Henry Ford: “Coming together is a beginning, keeping together is progress, working together is success.”

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
