The Prime Directive. How To Charter Your Team Best (With LEGO Serious Play)Michael Tarnowski
Team chartering is generally used at the start of a project only, and team charters tend to be quite general and abstract.
In this hands-on session of Agile Cambridge Conference 2015, we will use the 'Lego Serious Play' method to develop a team-specific team charter, which fits individual team goals and can be adapted continuously.
Designing around storytelling - UX Oxford, 23 April 2014Anna Dahlström
Slides from my talk at UX Oxford on 23 April
http://www.meetup.com/UX-Oxford/events/172543682/
Storytelling has always played an important part in our societies throughout history. In the last few years it's gained attention as an important aspect in communicating and building engagement with a brand’s customer base. But storytelling is also an integral part of the design process. It’s a tool that not only can help us define our content and messaging, but the experience as a whole. Both across platforms and screens, and how we interact with it.
My Ignite talk for the Interaction Design Association of Ireland's Defuse Dublin night: http://www.defuse.ixd.ie/
Nov 3rd, 2009.
I presented some of the reasons why bad design decisions are not the fault of one designer, developer or website manager, and the elements that are required to make a good user experience online.

ABSTRACT
Whilst the work we do is not meant to be hanged on a wall for people to admire, nor is meant to be put in a drawer and forgotten about. Just as we make the products and services we design easy to use, the UX of UX is about communicating your thinking in a way that ensures that what you've defined is easy to understand for the reader. It's about adapting the work you do to the project in question and finding the right balance of making people want to look through your work whilst not spending unnecessary time on making it pretty.
Who is it for?
This workshop is suitable for anyone starting out in UX, or who's worked with it for a while but is looking to improve the way they present their work.
What you'll learn
In this hands on workshop we'll walk through real life examples of why the UX of UX deliverables matter. We'll cover how who the reader is effects the way we should present our work, both on paper and verbally, and how to ensure that the work you do adds value. Coming out of the workshop you'll have practical examples and hands on experience with:
// How to adapt and sell your UX deliverable to the reader (from clients, your team, in house and outsourced developers)
// Guiding principles for creating good UX deliverables (both low and high fidelity)
// Best practice for presentations, personas, user journeys, flows, sitemaps, wireframes and other documents
// Simple, low effort but big impact tools for improving the visual presentation of your UX deliverables
The Cloud changes everything. What made you successful in the past will not make you successful in the future. The Cloud changes everything in the GTM model - the value proposition, price points and the decision maker are all different. Things have moved on, the world has change and you had better change to! The key to success: "Change before you have to change."
Selling Your Ideas to Key Stake Holders in Venue Management Today. Influence, persuade and convince others to change their thinking and move them to take action
The Value of Leadership, the Leadership of Value: Remaining Relevant in times...Peter Bromberg
Script and supporting materials at: http://peterbromberg.com/sla
Throw out those 5 year strategic plans, change ain't what it used to be. Change no longer happens in slow, predictable, macro waves that allow us the time to make and execute big plans. Change now happens in a continual series of microbursts, each one potentially changing our experiences, behaviors, perceptions, and expectations in unexpected but potentially powerful ways.
A new type of leadership is called for. A leadership that not only provides a map for change, but also empowers people in your organization to throw away the map and respond to clients' needs in the moment. A leadership that questions best practices, holding only lightly to the ways of the past. A leadership that monitors societal trends and embraces small innovations and good ideas no matter where they come from.
Devops is one of those "buzzwords", so abused, that could end meaning nothing.
This session is about Devops philosophy (as I see it), how to start doing Devops and how it can enrich our work.
Devops is not about the tools, it's about getting rid of those, often self-inflicted, barriers that made us siloed.

3 things you must know to think reactive - Geecon Kraków 2015Manuel Bernhardt
Over the past few years, web-applications have started to play an increasingly important role in our lives. We expect them to be always available and the data to be always fresh. This shift into the realm of real-time data processing is now transitioning to physical devices, and Gartner predicts that the Internet of Things will grow to an installed base of 26 billion units by 2020.
As reactive architectures gain in popularity, more and more developers find themselves faced with the challenge of "thinking reactive". To leave behind the well-known concepts of mutable, object-oriented, imperative and synchronous programming in favour of immutable, functional, declarative and asynchronous programming requires quite a mind shift and it isn't obvious to take the plunge.
In this talk we will explore three concepts from the world of functional programming that are at the core of building reactive applications: immutability, higher-order functions and manipulating immutable collections. We will first see how the "traditional" mutable, object-oriented approach of doing things can be problematic when it comes to multi-core programming, and then how to apply them to asynchronous systems.

How to Have Difficult Conversations With Confidence - MTP Digital 2020Denise Jacobs
Sometimes it’s difficult to have the self-assurance needed to tackle having some of the difficult conversations that are part and parcel of your work – particularly with the high level of Impostor syndrome that many product managers experience.
It turns out that silencing the inner critic is part of the foundation for cultivating the courage needed to have difficult conversations with more confidence. As a bonus, getting rid of the mean inner voice additionally enhances creative problem-solving, innovative thinking, and collaboration skills – three items that Product Managers have to use everyday.
In this session, we’ll first identify the ways in which the inner critic weakens our nerve to tackle head-on the conversations that we need to have. Then, we’ll explore powerful mental reframes and tools for reducing self-doubt, dealing with impostor syndrome, and recognizing cognitive distortions. Finally, we’ll address some of the most common difficult conversations such as giving and receiving feedback, getting teams in alignment with each other, dealing with execs, and saying no, and tools to facilitate each.
There are certain conversations that will always provoke anxiety. However, the tools and practices shared in this session will put you on the path to honing interpersonal skills, developing resilience, and increased self-awareness.

The Torchbearer's Opportunity – Miles Camp 2018Denise Jacobs
A torchbearer is a person who leads or inspires others in working toward a valued goal. Sadly, too many companies fall prey to leadership that is self-serving, tone-deaf to their talent pool, and only concerned with growing wealth of the company at the expense of company morale. These leaders don’t realize this approach to leadership makes their companies less adaptable, and thus less competitive, in the marketplace.
To solve today’s problems and those of the future, we need an evolved version of leadership. We need more people to be torchbearers: modern leaders that light the way to individuals doing their highest and best work, teams creating better together, and companies that contribute to the bottom line while also contributing to the greater good.
Fortunately, today’s leaders can embrace, ignite, and model modern leadership through leveraging the power of creativity – and the steps are more accessible than you think. In this talk, we’ll explore how leaders can identify and remove internal mental blocks, how to access personal power through finding and staying in Flow more consistently, and how to amp up communication skills to become a connected and trusted role model who sparks a wave of change that transforms workplaces for the better.
