Este libro trata, fundamentalmente, de espiritualidad, meditación y desarrollo personal. Cuestiones que, como se verá, son a menudo inseparables. Tanto el camino budista, como el del yoga y la meditación, la mística, la indagación psicológica, filosófica, humanista y espiritual, nos ofrecen herramientas esenciales en nuestro propio camino individual.

Helen Bevan delivered this full-day workshop, where we discussed, with about 80 health care leaders, how to build contagious commitment for change.
Much of the redesign effort in health care is focused on the “anatomical” or technical aspects of improvement; how we transform processes, pathways and structures of care. There is growing recognition globally among leaders that we need to give more credence to the “physiological” aspects of redesign; how we capture the imagination and energy of frontline teams, leaders, and patients and families and mobilize them for system-wide transformation. Individuals and teams can weather the inevitable challenges presented by change, and they will sustain energy for change if they have an intrinsic sense of purpose, hope, and possibility about what the change will achieve.
At this one-day workshop, Helen Bevan – she is energy personified! - took us through some of the latest thinking and practice on how to build this ‘contagious commitment’ to change. She illustrated why energy is such a critical factor in successful change efforts. We learned about the different kinds of energy required for change, reviewed our Saskatchewan 'energy for change' profile, and built our skills for assessing and building energy levels in ourselves and in our team members.
The workshop took place in Regina, Saskatchewan, on Tuesday, April 9th, 2013.

Designing the User Experience
User Experience Professionals Association (UXPA) defines user experience in this way:
Every aspect of the user’s interaction with a product, service, or company that make up the user’s perceptions of the whole. User experience design as a discipline is concerned with all the elements that together make up that interface, including layout, visual design, text, brand, sound, and interaction.
Additionally, the UX designer has the goal of making this user experience usable, useful, desirable, valuable, findable, credible and accessible. That’s a lot to keep in mind!
In this talk, Jason and Nadine will explain how UX designers gain an understanding of their users’ tasks (and the way they think about them), how they use this knowledge to design better UIs and better content, and finally how these designs are validated and evolved over time as users continue to interact with the product.
We’ll also briefly describe the deliverables often used by designers to communicate their work to clients, and how best to prepare yourself for engaging a user experience design agency to contribute to your product design process.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
