Designers Taking Action
Roll back
| description |

Design has an extensive impact on how social movements are activated. Designers are engaging in campaigns and social issues at increasing levels, and non-designers are learning and implementing design practices for a more effective movement. Design is employed to shape activism, including everything from establishing a voice and brand, to empathizing with an audience and rapidly prototyping to maximize your impact.
Kicking off this monthly event will be speaker Natalie Sundeleaf Sept, who has found her passion at the intersection of activism, engagement, art, and design.
Natalie will discuss how designers, makers, and artists react to times of change through both resistance and forward thinking. Natalie calls herself a meeter and a maker, and turned her energy into activism when she worked on Hillary Clinton’s campaign. Post-election, Natalie returned to PDX and organized What Now, a powerful event at Revolution Hall discussing the future of the Portland community with 1500 passionate attendees.
Taking place at the Center for Architecture the morning of May 5th, this presenter will help convey to attendees the power of design in social activism. Complete with breakfast and coffee, the kickoff of Design Museum Mornings is not to be missed!

Leading in Context: Introduction to the Cynefin Framework
Roll back
| description |
nil |

Have you ever wondered why some approaches work well in one context and not so well in others? In order to improve our chances for success, we need to understand the nature of the situation we are working with in order to take appropriate action. Failing to recognize the nature of the situation at hand results in misinformed decisions with potentially catastrophic consequences.
Cynefin is a sensemaking framework that helps people understand their context and situation in order to take appropriate action.
In this meetup we will review the basics of the Cynefin framework and discuss other options for continued learning.
Optional Pre-Work:
A Leader’s Framework for Decision Making

Refresh Portland — The Shady Web: How CSS is your brand’s body language
Roll back
| description |
nil |

Navigating the web has turned into a treacherous exercise. Between sidebars, popups, scroll overs, and pre-checked boxes, you have to avoid the content you don’t want to unearth the content you do want. As these practices in distraction and diversion become the norm, marketers are pressured to follow suit. Just because marketers can, does not mean that we should. We need to do better. We shouldn’t have to resort to cheap tricks and bait-and-switch tactics to generate sales.
Together we will look at the difference between influencing genuine user behavior and tricking people through the use of CSS patterns and interactions. Learn how you can add motion into your digital properties in a way that builds trust with your users and gives them what they need, and nothing more.
Our Presenter, Heidi Olsen
Heidi Olsen has navigated through the treacherous world of web development for the past 9 years. Her goal is to make the web less shady and more thoughtful. You may find her browsing Twitter, blogs, and Slack channels in search of finding better approaches to our digital space.
Heidi is currently a Senior Developer at eROI, a full-service creative agency in Portland, Ore. eROI partners with innovative brands such as Taco Bell, Nike, and Aramark to craft compelling experiences. |

Agile in Context: How to Improve Agile Development Using the Cynefin Framework
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
Have you ever wondered why some Agile concepts work well in one context and not so well in other contexts? With so many tools, techniques, models, methods, practices, and principles available, how do you decide which ones are appropriate for a given situation?
Agile methods, practices, and principles are successful primarily because they are effective heuristics. Heuristics are anything that provide a plausible aid or direction in the solution of a problem. All heuristics work by exploiting the structure of an environment, so heuristics work well in some environments and less well (or not at all) in others. We need to understand why and where Agile methods and practices work - and where they don’t - in order to adopt, tailor, use, and improve them.
Cynefin is a sensemaking framework that helps people understand their context or situation in order to take appropriate action. The Cynefin framework can be used to select Agile heuristics appropriate for the environment (e.g. use Scrum here, and Kanban there) rather than defaulting to a single, recipe-based approach for all situations. Agile heuristics are especially important and useful for complex and complicated environments, where practitioners must work continuously to understand their context, and then respond quickly and flexibly to meet rapidly-changing needs.
Agile in Context helps practitioners understand not only how, but also why Agile methods and practices work across different contexts. Understanding Agile in context increases the chances for successful adoptions and highlights areas where new methods need to be developed or repurposed from other disciplines. Treating Agile as a set of heuristics will also reduce recipe-based, dogmatic approaches that are fairly pervasive in the community at large today.
Learning Outcomes:
By the end of the session, participants should be able to:
-- describe what heuristics are and why they work
-- describe the Cynefin Framework
-- use the Cynefin framework to identify and select heuristics to improve Agile development
-- find additional information for continued learning
Optional Pre-Work:
A Leader’s Framework for Decision Making

<p><img src="https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/3/a/b/5/600_460215029.jpeg"></p> <p>On Thursday, May 11th, <b><a href="https://secondstory.com/">Second Story</a> </b>will host Women Who Code Portland’s monthly Networking Night in their new design studio.</p> <p><br><a href="https://secondstory.com"><b>Second Story</b></a> is a network of experiential design studios working across the cultural and brand landscapes to elevate the art of storytelling. They build stories you can step inside of.</p> <p>The theme for the night is <b>Make It Happen: Improvising, Collaborating, Prototyping</b>. The format of the night is an “around the world”; after the welcome, we will break into 3 smaller groups and each smaller group will attend every session offered. The night will be centered around how the team at Second Story works collaboratively, how they create prototypes that help them push the boundaries, and the leadership styles that make it all possible. </p> <p>We hope you’ll join us. <b><a href="https://secondstory.com/">Second Story</a> </b>is absolutely thrilled to host us in their new studio!</p> <p>
<b>Program</b></p> <p>6:00 - 6:30pm – Doors Open + Networking</p> <p>6:30 - 7:40pm – Welcome + Around the World Sessions</p> <p>7:40 - 8:00pm – Networking </p> <p>
<b>Session #1 - Improvising To Become Better Collaborators</b></p> <p>Second Story is a highly collaborative studio making work that none of them could possibly produce on their own. Needless to say they have to be excellent listeners and collaborators. So that means they have to practice. <b><a href="https://twitter.com/laura_allcorn?lang=en">Laura Allcorn</a>, Creative Lead and Sr. Experience Designer</b>, will lead a brief improvisation workshop that helps you brush up on our listening and collaboration skills. If the thought of this makes you nervous, please know this isn’t a performance and trying to be funny will be frowned upon.</p> <p><b>Session #2 - Getting Real Fast</b></p> <p>Prototyping is a necessity at Second Story. Their project teams will share how they prototype and why they do it. You’ll get a behind the scenes look at examples from projects with major museums and brands. Along the way they’ll share key learnings and show you how they evolved the experiences created.</p> <p><b>Session #3 - Exposing Unconscious Bias</b></p> <p><b><a href="https://twitter.com/kelseysnook?lang=en">Kelsey Snook</a>, Creative Director</b>, will facilitate a discussion about women in leadership roles. She will share the Second Story approach to tackling unconscious bias with their Make Some Room campaign, an effort to increase inclusivity in the tech and creative fields.</p> <p>

Technology Association of Oregon (TAO), in coordination with the Columbia-Willamette Workforce Collaborative (CWWC) has convened industry experts from across our region over the course of seven months to develop a Talent Strategy Plan. This plan is intended to galvanize collective action to address opportunities and gaps within the Tech talent pipeline. As an employer within this industry, you are invited to participate and celebrate this effort with our Tech Talent Strategy Plan Launch Party!
Why you should attend:
-Gather with like-minded peers to discover the priorities of solutions to regional talent issues.
-Learn about resources and investments from the public workforce system.
-Not to mention the event will include drinks, food and great conversation.
This effort is not only a regional effort among our local workforce boards, it has drawn the support of our industry association, and economic development entities. The Tech Talent Strategy Plan is action-oriented, outcomes-focused, and is developed by you and your industry peers.
The Columbia-Willamette Workforce Collaborative (CWWC) is a partnership between the Clackamas Workforce Partnership, Workforce Southwest Washington and Worksystems: the three Workforce Development Boards covering the Portland-Vancouver Metropolitan Area. The Collaborative delivers a unified approach to serving industry, supporting economic development, and guiding public workforce training investments to better address the needs of our combined labor shed.

<p>On Thursday, May 11th, <b><a href="https://secondstory.com/">Second Story</a> </b>will host Women Who Code Portland’s monthly Networking Night in their new design studio.</p> <p><br><a href="https://secondstory.com"><b>Second Story</b></a> is a network of experiential design studios working across the cultural and brand landscapes to elevate the art of storytelling. They build stories you can step inside of.</p> <p>The theme for the night is <b>Make It Happen: Improvising, Collaborating, Prototyping</b>. The format of the night is an “around the world”; after the welcome, we will break into 3 smaller groups and each smaller group will attend every session they offer. The night will be centered around how we work collaboratively, create prototypes that help us push the boundaries, and the leadership styles that make it all possible. </p> <p>We hope you’ll join us. <b><a href="https://secondstory.com/">Second Story</a> </b>is absolutely thrilled to host us in their new studio!</p> <p>
<b>Program</b></p> <p>6:00pm - 6:30pm – Doors Open + Networking</p> <p>6:30pm - 7:40pm – Welcome + Around the World Sessions</p> <p>7:30pm - 8:00pm – Networking </p> <p>
<b>Session #1 - Improvising To Become Better Collaborators</b></p> <p>We’re a highly collaborative studio making work that none of us could possibly produce on our own. Needless to say we have to be excellent listeners and collaborators. So that means we have to practice. <b><a href="https://twitter.com/laura_allcorn?lang=en">Laura Allcorn</a>, Creative Lead and Sr. Experience Designer</b>, will lead a brief improvisation workshop that we’ve used to help us brush up on our listening and collaboration skills. If the thought of this makes you nervous, please know this isn’t a performance and trying to be funny will be frowned upon!</p> <p><b>Session #2 - Getting Real Fast</b></p> <p>Prototyping is a necessity in our work. Our project teams will share how we prototype and why we do it. You’ll get a behind the scenes look at examples from projects with major museums and brands. Along the way we’ll share key learnings and show you how they evolved the experiences we ultimately created.</p> <p><b>Session #3 - Confronting Unconscious Bias OR Exposing Unconscious Bias OR Addressing Unconscious Bias</b></p> <p><b><a href="https://twitter.com/kelseysnook?lang=en">Kelsey Snook</a>, Creative Director</b>, will facilitate a discussion about women in leadership roles. We’ll share our approach to tackling unconscious bias with our Make Some Room campaign, an effort to increase inclusivity in the tech and creative fields.</p> <p>
<b>About Second Story</b></p> <p><a href="https://secondstory.com/"><b>Second Story</b></a> is a network of experiential design studios working across the cultural and brand landscapes to elevate the art of storytelling.

Refresh Portland — Staying Creative When Your Day Job Is a Grind

<em>Doors open at 5:30. Talk starts at 6pm.</em>
Ask any CEO: the creativity and innovative ideas of their employees are a key driver for business success. So why does so much of our work suck the creative energy right out of us?
It’s not just paper pushers who are struggling with creative burnout – designers, writers, programmers and others in de facto creative jobs find themselves bogged down in repetitive work while their best ideas are rejected by clients and management alike.
Why does this happen, and how can we combat creative burnout to reclaim our spark? From our desks at work to our living rooms at home, Cat will explore ways to conquer monotony, nurture inspiration, and boost our creative output. Oh, and have a lot more fun in the process.
<h3>Our Presenter, Cat Rayburn</h3>
Cat began her interactive design career making website Flash intros. Clients loved them! Users had no choice but to tolerate them. After a dark night of the soul, she spent the next 15 years trying to atone.
Now she’s a dogged advocate for users and an evangelist for user-centered methods, and recently served as co-leader of IxDA Portland. Cat has traversed design agencies, explored the uncharted territory of a freelance career, knocked about in the belly of the corporate beast, and finally repatriated to agency life. Each new move brought creative challenges, and yes, some creative ruts as well. She is currently a Lead UX Designer and Researcher at Amplified Design where she designs applications for the education, IoT, non-profit, automotive and healthcare sectors.
Outside work she makes costumes with sporks, caution tape, artificial birds, and sometimes fabric. |

Are There Dangers to Consciousness Hacking?
Roll back
| description |
nil |

What are the risks of consciousness raising? Consciousness raising is usually a good experience and it might be tempting to pursue without considering the consequences. In this meetup, we will use the Lean Coffee format to discuss aspects of consciousness raising, including:
• What do you see as the benefits of CH? What about the costs?
• How do you experience NOSC?
• Have you used technology to increase your awareness? If so, what have you used? What was your experience?
• Have you used other methods (non-technological) to increase your awareness?
• The CH movement is focused on technologies that raise/alter consciousness. What would you include in this area? Are there consciousness-raising techniques you’d like to include, even if they aren’t related to technology?
What is the Lean Coffee discussion format? Check out the Lean Coffee website here.
In this discussion, participants set the agenda. Our last 2 meetups have generated vibrant discussions of consciousness hacking, what it is, and how it works. Tonight we want to personalize it. How does it work in your life? Are there any methods you want to try? What consciousness-raising topics would you like to discuss tonight? Are there other topics you’d like to learn more about in the future?
Come join us, meet other Consciousness Hackers, and have a tasty dinner at Shut Up and Eat. |

Four Viewpoints on SAFe
Roll back

The Scaled Agile Framework has become a strong force among enterprises pursuing agility. And with it have come strong opinions—in some cases, almost armed camps. This makes no sense. So, in the pursuit of sense, AgilePDX will host a panel of four experienced agilists all with different perspectives on SAFe, from the relatively naïve, to the roundly and soundly certified, to the confirmed skeptic.
Come join us. This ought to be a ball!
Come prepared to hear four distinct viewpoints and bring your questions. We have experts!
Jean Richardson (panel facilitator), like many of our panelists, is a member of the AgilePDX Coordinating Committee.

Domain Swap!
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
Bring a list of old domains you hesitantly keep renewing, domains that no longer fit, domains you've outgrown, domains you've had parked for years and haven't used. Give them away to friends, trade for better domains, and pick up some hot, new URLs for 2017.
## How this Works
Come to Migration Brewing at 7pm with your laptop. We'll write all our domains on notecards. We'll all look at our collective compiled domain names on a projected spreedsheet, and pick out ones we want. Then we'll do ICANN transfers amongst ourselves. If multiple people want the same domain, you'll have to convince its registrant that you'll do something better with it. It's up to the registrant to decide. Domain trading is more than welcome.
This is also a LEAVE NO DOMAIN PARKED event. Let's get content on these URLs! |
