The document introduces the CSD Project, which aims to help school districts implement innovative solutions to complex problems through collaborative leadership and divergent thinking. It notes the increasingly turbulent environment faced by today's leaders, with interconnected issues, special interests, and a fast pace of decision-making. The CSD Project seeks to help districts adjust their systems to meet changing needs, standards, employment opportunities, and methods of teaching and learning. It acknowledges potential downsides to staying on the same path and perceived benefits of creating an education system that adapts dynamically and meets stakeholders' needs. An invitation is provided for an information session on the CSD Project.

5 Barrier to Effective Employee Training Programs and How to Crush Them | Web...BizLibrary
Even in organizations where training and development priorities are closely aligned with business goals there’s plenty of room for improvement.
So, the question is what barriers do we need to be overcome if training and development departments are to increase the value they add to workforce performance and productivity, and remain relevant?
In this webinar we'll outline the 5 barriers to effective training and development programs and best practices for overcoming those barriers.
1. Efficiency - leveraging technology
2. Status Quo - inertia and risk aversion.
3. Convenience - throwing training at the problem and hoping it works.
4. Training Mindset - moving from a focus on training to performance.
5. Manager Support - managers are the single most important factor in improving employee performance.

When your talent is spread across a hundred countries, how do you give them a platform to train, brainstorm, and learn together? How do you respond to the learning needs of a diverse, distributed workforce that need to develop into your organization’s future leaders? How does one develop innovative leaders capable of a high level of critical thinking? What are the newest ideas in pedagogy? Here are some ideas and trends which are rapidly transforming L&D.

MOOCs for Employee Learning – Practitioners View – Online ForumLearningCafe
Currently there is limited discussion on the use of MOOCs (Massively Open Online Courses) for organisational or employee learning. Given that MOOCs are being dubbed a game changer in the academic world, Learning Café did some thinking and made this call:
MOOCs (Massively Open Online Courses) can be a mainstream employee learning option. It offers cost effective solutions for organisations with the benefits far outweighing the challenges. L&D/HR need to be proactive in exploring and including MOOCs in learning strategies.
To back this call, Learning Café formed a working group – MOOCs@Work comprising of experienced learning practitioners from leading organisations including Suncorp, QBE, IAG, Red Cross Blood Services, Royal Australasian College of Physicians etc. The working group has been hard at work exploring, developing a framework and methodology for effective deployment for employee learning.
This online webinar presents the work done so far and provides direction for Learning/HR who are considering including MOOCs as an employee development. Webinar covers:
A framework to deploy MOOCs for employee learning as part of the learning strategy and design.
How NBNCo plans to incorporate MOOCs in their learning strategy and processes.
The fours scenarios of how using MOOCs for employee learning will play out.
Panel discussion on the opportunities and challenges of using MOOCs for employee learning.

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.

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.

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!
2. Leadership Today
We demand that [leaders] solve, or at least
manage, a multitude of interconnected problems
that can develop into crises without warning;
we require them to navigate an increasingly
turbulent reality that is, in key aspects, literally
incomprehensible to human minds; we buffet
them on every side with bolder, more powerful
special interests that challenge every innovative
policy idea; we submerge them in often unhelpful
and distracting information; and we force them
to decide and act at an ever faster pace.
—Thomas Homer-Dixon (2000)
3. CSD PROJECT Goal
To move districts toward innovative solutions
to complex problems for which there are no
traditional or existing answers by initiating a
leadership framework that promotes divergent

that lead to powerful transformations.
4. What has prompted the need for
change?
Test Results Budgets
Changing
High employment
Dropout opportunities
Rates and
necessary
skill sets
Methods of
teaching and
learning Changing
coming into Standards
question
5. The Challenge
How do districts adjust and implement
systems to meet the needs of today’s
complex and turbulent environment?
6. Potential Downside
What is the impact of staying
on the same track?
The marketability of graduates
is likely to be an issue
Dissatisfied stakeholders
7. Perceived Benefits
