update Calagator::Event 1250463471 World Information Architecture Day 2013 Event PDX Roll back

description Welcome to World Information Architecture Day 2013! Please register for this event on Eventbrite. Come learn about what Information Architecture means and about some of the challenges facing Portland's leading practitioners. Ideal for: Anyone interested in technology, creative tech, business of tech, industry pros, students and everyone in between.  Thanks to our sponsors: AIGA, IxDA, PDX Web Design Meetup Our speaker lineup is amazing! 10am: Jeanne Turner-Walmart Labs  Motivation and Flow for IA 11am: Patricia Colley-Interactionflow Civilizing Information Architecture: A meditation on systems design 12p: Huston Hedinger-Wikisway Networks as a User Interface 1p: Matthew Baranauskas and Noah DiJulio-Ziba Meeting Challenges Innovating on Top of Existing Platforms Information architecture is the keystone of every digital experience. It's where consumer needs and desires often collide with a brand's hopes and dreams. The danger for companies as they grow is figuring out how to integrate new features into their customer's existing experience. Using real world examples and personal anecdotes, Matthew and Noah will discuss how they navigate the challenge of innovating on top of existing platforms using a consumer-centric approach. You'll gain perspective on where to look for inspiration and insight, how to prioritize features into something that is meaningful and authentic, and how not to lose your mind in the process. 2p: Joel Barker and Michael Sulis-Wordlions and Summit Energy Tech, respectively Capture, Tagging and Release of Institutional Knowledge: Delivering Information in the Real World When creating a system to deliver institutional information outside of the organization, the success of the project rests on understanding the requirements and work process of all stakeholders. In this case study, Summit Energy Tech and Word Lions collaborated to collect, organize, and make available the mission critical institutional knowledge that was the foundation of our client’s relationship with their customers. This presentation will cover not only our solution, but the points where understanding the client capacity makes the difference between implementation and project failure. 3p: Alison Stump-The Social Wall Visualizing Insight: Getting Started in Information Architecture Information Architecture has only recently been given the respect it deserves by those outside the realm of User Experience. Often the designs we build are so elegant they appear simple. The average person on the street knows that a menu bar probably goes at the top of the page. In most cases its "common sense". It is positioned on the top of the page because an Information Architect thought about all the options, considered the usability and user research data and delivered a product that just works.That is what information Architecture is. So how do you do it? We will discuss a basic schema, various tools and resources to help you get started as well as key terms and phrases that will allow you to escalate your career. 4p: Dedrick Sprick-OHSU Progressive Content Strategy: A content commitment model   We can have only 80 guests/session, so it's all first come, first served, so make sure you're on time!  Also, food and drink is allowed, but not provided. Please go to Floyd's Coffee across the street or People's Sandwich of Portland to find food, or bring your own. Afterparty @Backspace 'til whenever.

Over the last 30 years, machines have allowed us to structure data in such a way that allow us to analyze the complex interactions between the individual actors in networks. These interactions turn out to reveal patterns that are both predictable and obedient to mathematical laws- many in the academic community are just beginning to grasp the power an the importance of these claims. The ability to visualize networks allowing the researcher/user/customer to quickly understand the structure and behavior of a network is the main focus of this talk. 1p: Matthew Baranauskas and Noah DiJulio-Ziba Meeting Challenges Innovating on Top of Existing Platforms Information architecture is the keystone of every digital experience.

description nil → Scrum is Dumb, or: How I Learned to Stop Burning Down and Love Agile (Part III of the "Agile Sucks" saga) ----------------------------------------------------------- Bringing Agile into an organization is never a good idea. It is disruptive, complicated, and very expensive. It brings organizational dysfunction to the surface and shines a bright light on business practices that sabotage teams and fail to deliver value to clients. Further, unwitting teams may adopt a version of Agile that becomes dogmatic, inflexible, and interested in perpetuating the "process” of Agile rather than being, well, agile. The only thing worse than bringing Agile in, is trying to get Agile right. The Agile Manifesto outlined some very specific guidelines for understanding the values underlying Agile: Individuals and interactions... ...over processes and tools Working software... ...over comprehensive documentation Customer collaboration... ...over contract negotiation Responding to change... ...over following a plan That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more. For the most part, the "Left Brain" of the Agile Manifesto remains aspirational at best. It is interesting to note then that the overwhelming majority of software development projects have chose a "Right Brain" form of Agile, and invariably have chosen Scrum, the most process-and-tool-heavy system to deliver "Agility." Further, a reflection on the adoption of Agile leads to the unpalatable conclusion that Agile has been co-opted by "Scrum, Inc." Instead of focusing on Individuals and Interactions, Scrum, Inc. would have Agile practitioners believe that software development efforts, and can be reduced to users stories, task lists, and burn-down charts packaged in SBaaS (Silver Bullet as a Service). The goal of this presentation is to untangle Agile from Scrum and to define a process that will re-align software development projects back on the "Left Side" of the Agile Manifesto and provide a framework for establishing a qualitative analysis and cost savings analysis for a "Left Brain" approach to Agility. That said, everyone should be using Agile. This presentation will explore ways to bring Agile into an organization, how to choose the right "flavor” of Agile, and what to do when it goes badly – because it will. This presentation will also examine how to expand the Agile conversation from within the software development team, outward to internal stakeholders, and eventually into client engagements.

create Calagator::Event 1250463466 Collaborative Context Roll back

description nil → <b>Abstract:</b> <h2>How Do You Set a Collaborative Context? Encourage Pervasive Leadership</h2> Why do we think collaboration is so hard, so complex? Well, one reason is that it’s largely antithetical to how we have been enculturated for generations. At the same time, it’s increasingly important for business survival and has long been important for personal happiness. February’s SPIN talk looks at what is needed to speed up and optimize opportunities for collaboration on project teams and in organizations from a leadership perspective. We’ll discuss what it means to have a “dialogic mindset” to “presence” leadership in the organization and discuss a model that leaders all across, up, and down the organization can use to foster collaboration. Principles around freedom and accountability as well as deep democracy will be covered and related to the workplace. While this topic does not present a panacea for dysfunctional organizations it will provide attendees with new thinking and action-base tools for fostering collaboration wherever they lead. Come prepared to participate. While she respects “tourists” this speaker draws out audience interaction. Leadership is a conversation, not a presentation. <b>Bio: </b> Jean Richardson has been a software development professional since 1989, She is experienced in project management, writing, training, public speaking, and requirements and business analysis. During her career, she has designed and implemented a number of communications programs, managed dozens of projects, helped to assemble and led large and small co-located and distributed teams, led process improvement initiatives, and led professional development and education efforts for software developers in all specialties. As a businessperson, she is firmly aware of the value, as well as the cost, of customer intimacy. She cautions fellow software professionals against too strictly applying the adage “it’s just business,” because business is done by human beings. She has learned that basic human issues are at the root of most business problems and most customer/vendor, employer/employee, or client/consultant disputes. Jean believes that if we ignore this fact we dehumanize ourselves and imperil our society. Her experience and career path have spanned both traditional and agile methods, frameworks, and cultural perspectives. The Agile leadership model she espouses, Pervasive Leadership, is designed to help leaders set a collaborative context while still meeting their own stewardship responsibilities to the organization. Jean teaches courses in Effective Conflict Engagement, Collaboration for Cross-Functional Teams, Setting Collaborative Context, Working Together When You Can’t Be Face-to-Face, and Facilitative Leadership. As a consultant, her client list boasts a wide range of businesses including ADP, Chrome Systems, Intel, Daimler Chrysler, Kryptiq Corporation, Mentor Graphics, Oregon State Department of Human Services, Portland General Electric, The Regence Group/Cambia Health Solutions, and Tripwire. EPHT GEORGE, a project Jean led for the Public Health Division of Oregon State Department of Human Services, won the Project Management Institute 2009 Project of the Year Award for the Portland Chapter. <b>A Special Treat from PNSQC</b> Plan on coming early! In collaboration with the Pacific Northwest Software Quality Conference (PNSQC) the SPIN meeting will have pizza and pop provided by PNSQC beginning at 5:30 pm. PNSQC is the Pacific Northwest Software Quality Conference, a group of volunteers interested in Software Quality. The Mission of the PNSQC is to enable knowledge exchange to produce higher quality software. As a non-profit, it seeks to promote software quality by providing education and opportunities for information exchange within the software community. <b>Thanks also to OTBC</b> We want to thank OTBC (http://www.otbc.org/) for providing the space for this talk <b>How to Register</b> This is a FREE lecture sponsored by the Rose City SPIN.

update Calagator::Event 1250463461 The PSU ACM Presents "Collaborative chaos: what it means to write code, manage projects and work with people in open source communities" by Selena Decklmann of Mozilla Roll back

description Synopsis: Working in software and with computers means wildly different things depending on who you talk to. In open source, the work spans every aspect of software development -- from the marketing and documentation to the troubleshooting end-user systems. The "community manager" or "organizer" role in open source communities is probably the least-well defined in our industry, but is seen as a crucial part of open source software development. Selena will talk about her work as a serial user group starter, open source conference circuit speaker, conference organizer and contributor to PostgreSQL -- all roles considered part of community management. She'll also talk about other kinds of community management roles available at small and large companies, or as a volunteer in an open source project. About the speaker: Selena is a major contributor to PostgreSQL, she founded and runs the Postgres Open conference and keeps chickens. Selena has been working with open source software for over 15 years.She's keynoted at SCALE, DjangoCon and LISA, and regularly gives technical talks about Postgres, open source and trolling. She is currently a data architect at Mozilla, makers of the Firefox browser. → Working in software and with computers means wildly different things depending on who you talk to.
