Doing customer development (and stop wasting your time) - StartupBus editionHans van Gent

Because everything you assume could be wrong. Time to validate those assumptions and start your business on the right track while being on a moving bus.
Whatever your “title,” you are a mentor. You want to help young people to see themselves as strong and capable, but sometimes you get so distracted by the deficits in their lives – difficult home life, unsupportive teachers, disruptive behavior, self-defeating attitudes, systems that don’t always work - that it is hard to see where the strengths are.
This presentation was a part of the May 3, 2012 Alberta Mentoring Partnership Webinar with Chris Trout. Chris will shares his research and stories in a “real life” way that will change the way you see the young people in your life and work. Then, he walks you through some practical strategies to help you recognize and grow these strengths, while still challenging them and holding them accountable for their actions.
You will…
Gain a deep and practical understanding of why our strengths are the key to resiliency and success - not just in theory, but in action.
Explore the art of seeing through “deficits” to the underlying strengths.
Learn to communicate and grow these strengths - specifically, authentically and effectively - and help kids and families see themselves as strong, capable and resource rich.

Everybody lies sometimes. This is true. Research has shown that 60 per cent of people lie at least once in a 10-minute conversation with a stranger. But many lies are benign, constructed to preserve someone’s feelings, save face or avoid damaging a relationship. These lies are usually harmless, expected and appreciated.
Dishonesty in the workplace, however, can be dangerous. From the lies told in employment interviews to tales spun in the boardroom, workplace dishonesty can affect a company’s security, morale and bottom line. HR professionals and investigators should be skilled and trained to detect lies.
Join Timothy Dimoff, security expert and president of SACS Consulting, as he discusses workplace dishonesty and what to do about it.
People are driven to accomplish their goals when they’re intrinsically convinced they are doing the right thing.
Convincing is getting your colleagues and your team to buy-in on your vision.
Author of twelve books, professional speaker, award-winning blogger and entrepreneur Scott Ginsberg presents at the Unigroup 2011 Conference on how to become an approachable move coordinator!
Do you feel like you need to challenge your interviewees a little more?
Are the stale, cliché interview questions just not doing it for you anymore?
We’ve got the answer: nonsensical, irrelevant, weird and wonderful brainteasers!
Useful or a complete waste of time? You decide!

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

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.
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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
