What the analyst can learn from spaghetti sausEdzo Botjes
When you watch the ted talk from malcolm gladwell and combine it with some theory, we can ask ourself. what can we learn from it.
People don't know what they want and People don't know what they don't know. Maybe the interviewing and analyzing method isn't that great.
Open source an origin story to freedom covers the origin on open source, the two main currents in the landscape and the options we now have how to go forward.

The Quick And Dirty Guide To Creating Blog Posts That Your Audience CravesDominique Jackson
You've been reading about the importance of blogging for a long time. You might have started out with a blog post every now and then, but never got any traction. Most people fail at blogging because they're creating the wrong type of content.
This presentation will show you how to create blog posts that your target audience CRAVES and is STARVING for. The type of content that people look for when they're further into the buying process. And the best part? It's just a simple 3 step process!

Defining antifragility and the application on organisation design @ DADD 2011...Edzo Botjes
The .com crisis of 2000, the financial crisis of 2008 and the COVID-19 crisis of 2020 show us the importance for organisations to become resilient or even antifragile to survive (unexpected) external stressors. Research states that the current VUCA world will expose enterprises to more and more stressors. Resilience is the way a system bounces back from impact by a stressor. Antifragile is the way a system improves from impact by a stressor. In his master thesis Edzo combines (1) literature research on resilience with (2) the antifragile attributes found in the literature and (3) variety engineering into one model, an Extended Antifragile Attribute List (EAAL). Enabling the leadership of an organisation to determine if the organisation should aim to be antifragile or to be a specific type of resilient. The presentation consists of the EAAL model, theory and practical application via an interactive discussion on how to recognize the context and how to adjust your behaviour as an architect.
Is a secure cloud possible or an neverending rat-race? We know the debate around “The Cloud Is Just Someone Else's Computer.” The cloud is an technology ecosystem that provided us so much more options than time-share mainframe, multi-user unix systems or patterns as CORBA and RPC could provide us. I'll introduce you into the concept of Variety known from Requisite Variety. One of the key attributes of an antifragile IT systems. This concept will help you in design decision on the risk mitigation in the cloud.

Paper abstract —Organizations operate in a socio-economic context,
and alignment with this context is key for business success. The
rate of change and impact of these changes on the operating
model of the organization appears to be increasing. Major trends
are the aftermath of the financial crisis of 2008, the “VUCA”
aspects (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, ambiguity), and the
Covid-pandemic. The challenge for organizations is to become
resilient or even antifragile to survive (unexpected) external
stressors.
Antifragility refers to a class of systems that do not deteriorate
(fragile) or withstand (robust) stressors, but actually improve as
a result of stressors. Our objective is to find attributes that are
relevant for an organization to be(come) antifragile. The list of
attributes found is based on an extensive survey of available
literature, and is validated with domain experts and leaders of
various organizations. We dub the list of attributes found the
Extended Antifragile Attribute List (EAAL).
Considering the current economic and social impact on organi-
zations and people of the Covid-pandemic, the EAAL is relevant
as well timely. The EAAL turns out to be extensive and holistic.
We consider the EAAL to be a stepping stone in setting the scene
of the domain of antifragility.
We suspect that the EAAL might also be applied to generic
system design including technology infrastructure and software
systems. This exploration is part of future research
Workshop on Presentation skills
AIHACKCOVID
There have been millions of deaths and recoveries worldwide from COVID-19. If we work together and learn from worldwide data on the pandemic, we can prevent or better manage future pandemics.
This June, we are empowering the Artificial Intelligence and Medical community of Northern NL to hack the COVID-19 crisis together and to advise Dutch policy makers.
Using machine learning techniques, you are are invited to explore a worldwide data set of COVID-19 hospitalizations, policy decisions, and more to find patterns that can hack our crisis.
It's good to know what resilience is. It's better to know what your organisation can get out of it!
In this webinar, I will discuss how to utilize and “hack” resilience to enforce luck onto ourselves.
Presented at the Xebia XKE of 2021-01-19.
Viable Systems Model is A tool for diagnosing if a system can stay alive. This is a short presentation (30 min) into the model. Goal is to introduce VSM and start internal dialog on the applicability and relevance.
