The Happy Healthy Nonprofit: Linking Self-Care and Wellbeing to Impact Beth Kanter
This session is about how and why it is important to treat self-care and well-being as an organizational strategy and cultural norm. When self-care initiatives are treated as “extras” instead of being built right into the fabric of an organization’s culture, they are nothing more than a Band-Aid, barely disguising the underlying chronic stress and eroding the nonprofits ability to meet its mission. This session will share the latest thinking on well-being in the nonprofit workplace based on the presenter's book “The Happy Healthy Nonprofit: Strategies for Impact without Burnout.” Going beyond a narrow focus on physical health and wellness, the session will share examples and insights from nonprofits that have created and implemented a culture of well-being in the workplaces that supports results.

How to Use Positive Messages to Inspire + Motivate Employees WebinarTotalWellness
TotalWellness Webinar 1/8/2015
What motivates you to exercise or eat healthy? Are you the kind of person who needs a drill sergeant barking insults to motivate you to move? Does encouragement and reassurance motivate you to say no to that piece of chocolate cake? Research shows real power lies in positive messaging.
A small change in how you communicate can bring enormous returns. Focusing on the positive leads to a better workplace, more satisfied employees, and stronger results for your wellness efforts. Maya Angelou may have said it best when she wrote, “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Changing the conversation between you and your employees is up to you.
Discover how to cultivate the sexiness you feel in the bedroom to personal power, leadership and effectiveness in every area of life including the boardroom! Sexy is a state of mind that when harnessed and used to our advantage gives birth to limitless possibility. Learn how to "Make Love to Life!" and accomplish everything you want in life!
Introduction to positive psychology, take your happiness vitals, and learn sustainable happiness in 5 steps. This presentation was given to an audience of 50-100 entrepreneurs, technology professionals, and silicon valley based investors. MEI is Mentor, Empower, Inspire!

Why it's essential to have wellbeing programmes in the workplaceJustine Clement
Wellbeing programmes must start with what the possibilities could be, not just from the problems that currently exist (e.g. risks, illnesses, absences). Starting with what could be, forces any wellbeing programme to determine how to create a new reality instead of JUST fixing what is wrong. Creating an improved, “idealised” outcome means that not only are the existing problems addressed, but that a programmes serves to exceed expectation. This is the reason why we it's essential to have wellbeing programmes in organisations today.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

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.
