description nil Make it here! Have some projects you'd like to work on, but could benefit from a creative atmosphere? <a href="https://cacophonouscreations.wordpress.com/">Cat</a> and <a href="http://watershedpdx.com/">Watershed PDX</a> team up to offer just the space! We will supply wifi, and a place to share ideas and collaborate with a community of fellow creators and makers. We'll share tips and tricks, and support your creative endeavors! The goal for the meetup is to support the local creative scene while providing an opportunity for people to build a network with people of varied skills. Makers, crafters, and creators of all ages, skill levels, and backgrounds are encouraged to bring your projects, supplies, and ideas. From sewing to electronics to art projects, this will be an incubator for interesting collaborations. For example, if someone comes in to work on an embroidery project, another could show them how to incorporate conductive thread and LEDs to make that project light up. Tips and tricks that can be shared varied depending on who comes to the event. Things shared at previous events include working with Arduino, programming, sculpting, knitting, hand sewing, misc hobbyist electronics tips from component suppliers to soldering tricks.

update Calagator::Event 1250468995 Want More Women in Tech? Understand the Dynamics! Roll back

description <p>The tech industry is clamoring for more women. Despite many efforts, the numbers haven’t changed much. Why?</p> <p>All too often, diversity initiatives are designed without understanding the underlying dynamics.</p> <p>At <b>Navigate IT’s 1st allies event (men, this is your chance to join us)</b>, you will have the opportunity to be involved in a groundbreaking conversation on gender dynamics in tech. Be ready to share your perspective!</p> <p>To prepare:</p> <p>• Think about what is great about being a man or a woman in tech.</p> <p>• Articulate some of the challenges you face related to your gender.</p> <p>• Notice the gender dynamics in your workplace.</p> <p>We will use a polarity map from the Integral framework to bring some of these dynamics to light. We will discover that ordinary aspects of our work lives, things we take for granted or don’t think about, can be obstacles - even with our best intentions.</p> <p>Expect a rich and engaging conversation in a safe space.</p> <p>You will:</p> <p>• Have the opportunity to share your perspective and hear others’ perspectives.</p> <p>• Gain a greater understanding of how gender dynamics influence your teams.</p> <p>• Leave with new insight to help you navigate diversity. </p> <p>This is a rare opportunity to have a positive, honest dialog about important issues in the tech industry. It will be led by Terra Soma, co-founder of Navigate IT and Certified Integral Facilitator®. Her roles in tech have ranged from ecommerce analyst to software project manager. She now facilitates collaboration for tech teams.</p> <p>Terra will be joined by Zachary Feder, a former associate with LionHeart Consulting. He is well trained in group dynamics and conflict resolution and is a longtime student of Integral Theory.</p> <p><br><b><i>What your peers are saying about Terra and Zachary:</i></b></p> <p>"I have rarely been in a public environment where I felt both supported and challenged. Most of these engagements end up either being too wishy-washy, or too confrontational. Terra and Zachary are a perfect yin-yang, neither of whom comes across as a cliche based on their gender, what we might think of as traditional feminine or masculine qualities. They both modeled all of them. Having that as their Way of Being made it all the easier for me to allow my own range of emotions to play out in the session. Comfortable, worthwhile, evolving. People say events "changed their life," and it can seem overstated, but I found out things about myself I was never able to put into words before, and yes, that changed my life."<br>- Joe B., Technical Trainer</p> <p><b><i>What your peers are saying about Navigate IT</i></b></p> <p>“Best 2 hours I have spent all week.” – Strength’s Lab participant</p> <p><b>Event Schedule</b></p> <p>6:00-6:30 food and networking</p> <p>6:30-8:00 discussion</p> <p><b><br></b> <b>If you want to sign up for the event without joining the Meetup Group, you can register at </b><a href="http://www.somacollaborations.com/navigate/"><b>Soma Collaborations</b></a><b>.</b></p> RSVP at the link above <p>The tech industry is clamoring for more women.

Why?</p> <p>All too often, diversity initiatives are designed without understanding the underlying dynamics.</p> <p>At <b>Navigate IT’s 1st allies event (men, this is your chance to join us)</b>, you will have the opportunity to be involved in a groundbreaking conversation on gender dynamics in tech. Be ready to share your perspective!</p> <p>To prepare:</p> <p>• Think about what is great about being a man or a woman in tech.</p> <p>• Articulate some of the challenges you face related to your gender.</p> <p>• Notice the gender dynamics in your workplace.</p> <p>We will use a polarity map from the Integral framework to bring some of these dynamics to light. We will discover that ordinary aspects of our work lives, things we take for granted or don’t think about, can be obstacles - even with our best intentions.</p> <p>Expect a rich and engaging conversation in a safe space.</p> <p>You will:</p> <p>• Have the opportunity to share your perspective and hear others’ perspectives.</p> <p>• Gain a greater understanding of how gender dynamics influence your teams.</p> <p>• Leave with new insight to help you navigate diversity. </p> <p>This is a rare opportunity to have a positive, honest dialog about important issues in the tech industry. It will be led by Terra Soma, co-founder of Navigate IT and Certified Integral Facilitator®. Her roles in tech have ranged from ecommerce analyst to software project manager. She now facilitates collaboration for tech teams.</p> <p>Terra will be joined by Zachary Feder, a former associate with LionHeart Consulting. He is well trained in group dynamics and conflict resolution and is a longtime student of Integral Theory.</p> <p><br><b><i>What your peers are saying about Terra and Zachary:</i></b></p> <p>"I have rarely been in a public environment where I felt both supported and challenged. Most of these engagements end up either being too wishy-washy, or too confrontational. Terra and Zachary are a perfect yin-yang, neither of whom comes across as a cliche based on their gender, what we might think of as traditional feminine or masculine qualities. They both modeled all of them. Having that as their Way of Being made it all the easier for me to allow my own range of emotions to play out in the session. Comfortable, worthwhile, evolving. People say events "changed their life," and it can seem overstated, but I found out things about myself I was never able to put into words before, and yes, that changed my life."<br>- Joe B., Technical Trainer</p> <p><b><i>What your peers are saying about Navigate IT</i></b></p> <p>“Best 2 hours I have spent all week.” – Strength’s Lab participant</p> <p><b>Event Schedule</b></p> <p>6:00-6:30 food and networking</p> <p>6:30-8:00 discussion</p> <p><b><br></b> <b>If you want to sign up for the event without joining the Meetup Group, you can register at </b><a href="http://www.somacollaborations.com/navigate/"><b>Soma Collaborations</b></a><b>.</b></p>

description nil Join us for another edition of TiE Oregon Pitch Club, the most educational pitch clinic in town! Our featured speaker for this edition is Jill Wooldridge. She will be presenting a talk entitled: “Five Successful Strategies to Increase your Sales Numbers“. Jill Wooldridge is a Small Business Performance Stategist. Entrepreneurs and Small Business Owners from Coast to Coast in a wide variety of industries have trusted Jill to develop them in the skills to run all aspects of small business. She is the CEO and founder of JillWooldridge.com and creator of Mastering the Five Hats of Being a Business Owner. Since 1991, her coaching programs have been helping hundreds of clients have more satisfaction, more peace of mind and make more money. At the heart of Jill’s work is her knowing that people start a business because they are good at something and are passionate about making their contribution. But they do NOT necessarily know everything about running a successful business. And they don’t always have the results and money they want. Whether it is cash flow management, hiring and managing people or increasing sales, Jill works strategically to develop people in the necessary skills so they can get where they want to go. Then practice your pitches with us: investor pitches, concept pitches, sales pitches, co-founder pitches, product pitches, elevator pitches, etc. Bring your concept-, elevator-, co-founder-, sales, or investor pitch and get actionable and valuable feedback. Or, come be part of the audience and learn by watching, and providing feedback to others. But, it pays not to just be a watcher: you will definitely get the most benefit from this event by getting up and practicing your pitch with us! Many went before you, lived to tell the tale (we don’t bite!) and got a lot of actionable feedback!

create Calagator::Event 1250468993 AgilePDX Dntn Pub Lunch: Retrospectives and Inertia Roll back

description nil Last month the pub lunchers pointed back to a perennially sticky topic. We know retrospectives are a key aspect of continuous improvement and progressive agility. Most of us do retrospectives regularly. Many of use use the standard references like Derby and Larsen's /Agile Retrospectives: Making Good Teams Great/. And, many, if not all of us have had the experience of nothing the team agreed to change during the retrospective actually being changed. My personal favorite was a recent retro where the team rescinded all agreements made during the retro within 90 minutes of making them. In fact, within about 5 minutes of facing the Product Owner in the planning meeting. So, is it a lack of resolve? Is it poor facilitation on our part? Is it taking on too much? Is it not taking on doable things? What the heck? But, sometimes things go well. Sometimes teams dig in and use their retrospectives to improve something every sprint. Sometimes team members eagerly take on facilitating their own retrospectives and teams look forward to the next retrospective even as they are planning the current sprint. Sometimes they summarize data showing the existence of organizational impediments, for a task force, and take their data to executive leadership with a viable plan for change--which is actually accepted. What can we spot about retro's that do NOT result in change so we can call out those smells when we scent them, so we stop a sterile retro in its tracks and turn things around? Or, ensure that we develop a pattern of potency in our retrospectives? Join us Friday, 9/4, from 12p to 1p for pub grub, beer, conversation, commiseration and a few smashingly good ideas to help you or others turn your retrospective experience around once and for all. We'll be in the back room. Show up a few minutes early to chat with the friends and colleagues you haven't seen all summer and hang around as long as you like after to make new friends. RSVP's to [email protected] are welcome but not required. It helps know how and whether to move the furniture, which saves us having to do it after the discussion has begun.

update Calagator::Event 1250468948 Agile: "Beyond the Frameworks" Lean Coffee Roll back

description Join us for a Lean Coffee discussion about Agile beyond the frameworks. We'll start with some definition of topic boundaries then jump right into Lean Coffee discussion. Join us for a Lean Coffee discussion about Agile beyond the frameworks. We'll start with some definition of topic boundaries then jump right into Lean Coffee discussion. Following up on the topics that emerged among attendees at the “State of Agile” discussion at Puppet Labs gathering on 6/17, we’ll dig into what we think it means to be Agile disregarding the constraints and supports of the three most common frameworks currently in use. In some quarters, the term “agile” is being deprecated in favor of “nimble;” in others, the term “business agility” is increasingly favored. The case was made on 6/17 that Agile as we know it doesn’t speak to the needs of the enterprise outside of IT or engineering, and, especially, senior business leaders do not show up as what we often think of as agilists. So, what’s under Scrum, XP, and Kanban? What about the manifesto and principles can we grasp as tools to operationalize agility wherever we are—without spouting Scrumese or Agile cuteness. How do we both grow ourselves as agilists and as a community and support our colleagues toward a more mature grasp of Agile and Lean. Or, is Agile passe and do only the consultants and behemoth enterprises not know that, yet? Pizza and pop provided by PNSQC and beer provided by Puppet Labs, as usual.

update Calagator::Event 1250468966 Dynamics of Status, Rank, Power, Esteem: A workshop exploring collaboration and leadership Roll back

description We’re thrilled to announce a groundbreaking new training in status and leadership coming to Portland! Come for a 1-day intro to this work, or stay for 2 days and explore how the model translates to cooperative teamwork Day 1 - Interactive Dynamics of Power, Status, Rank and Esteem Everyone experiences the dynamics of power and status. But we’re often unaware of the underlying forces at play. These forces operate simultaneously, persistently and often unconsciously, in all our social interactions. In this unique workshop, expert facilitators Simo Routarinne and Barbara Tint will present a new framework for understanding the complexities of status and power dynamics. After introducting the framework, Simo and Barbara will lead participants in fun and engaging exercises that deliver a direct experience of these dynamics. Ample post-activity debrief and reflection time will be provided, to deepen participants’ insights surrounding the activities and concepts. Simo and Barbara’s teaching style guarantees laughter and surprise, while developing fabulous insights and practical applications. Participants will walk away with greater awareness and new skills in navigating the tricky terrain of power dynamics in all aspects of your personal and professional life. Come join us to: • Recognize different forms of power, both visible and invisible • Learn about the interplay of power dynamics with gender, culture and class • Explore the difference between intentional and unintentional influence • Learn about your natural status patterns and your default comfort zones • Narrow the gap between your intentions and their impact • Increase your range of flexibility in these processes • Build awareness, authenticity and empathy in communication • Maximize your agency and efficacy in making constructive change Day 2: Navigating Power Dynamics in Professional Situations Day 2 builds upon the theory and concepts of Day 1, applying them to the domain of collaboration in the workplace. When boundaries are blurred and projects are complex, teamwork can present unique challenges. This is true for project leads, product managers, business or creative consultants. Agile teams are a great example – each individual is expected to solve complex problems, effect change, and resolve conflicts together, in a context that (by definition) is emergent, chaotic and volatile. This workshop will help strengthen your skills in building relationships and influencing others, even where there doesn’t appear to be common ground. As in Day 1, Simo and Barbara will lead experiential exercises, this time drawing from participants’ real-world scenarios and challenges for inspiration. Debriefs will refocus on more practical and professional applications of the model. Navigating Power Dynamics will give you new knowledge and tools to be a more effective facilitator and leader, regardless of your organizational position. Participants will walk away with greater awareness and helpful strategies for increased collaboration, creativity and productivity. Join us and you’ll: • Explore the ways status and power dynamics affect team dynamics in the workplace • Understand how communication in organizations is affected by status behavior and use of power • Learn intervention techniques that can increase productivity in ambiguous environments • Cultivate organic and fluid leadership in the absence of rank and role • Improve individual and group performance in complex, volatile and chaotic environments • Facilitate more effective cooperation across organizational hierarchies and silos Although this work can be profound, Simo and Barbara always keep things playful, entertaining and fun. At Statusworks, we believe that learning happens best when participants are relaxed, present, and engaged. We look forward to working, learning and playing with you!

description We’re thrilled to announce a groundbreaking new training in status and leadership coming to Portland! Come for a 1-day intro to this work, or stay for 2 days and explore how the model translates to cooperative teamwork Day 1 Interactive Dynamics of Power, Status, Rank and Esteem Everyone experiences the dynamics of power and status. But we’re often unaware of the underlying forces at play. These forces operate simultaneously, persistently and often unconsciously, in all our social interactions. In this unique workshop, expert facilitators Simo Routarinne and Barbara Tint will present a new framework for understanding the complexities of status and power dynamics. After introducting the framework, Simo and Barbara will lead participants in fun and engaging exercises that deliver a direct experience of these dynamics. Ample post-activity debrief and reflection time will be provided, to deepen participants’ insights surrounding the activities and concepts. Simo and Barbara’s teaching style guarantees laughter and surprise, while developing fabulous insights and practical applications. Participants will walk away with greater awareness and new skills in navigating the tricky terrain of power dynamics in all aspects of your personal and professional life. Come join us to: • Recognize different forms of power, both visible and invisible • Learn about the interplay of power dynamics with gender, culture and class • Explore the difference between intentional and unintentional influence • Learn about your natural status patterns and your default comfort zones • Narrow the gap between your intentions and their impact • Increase your range of flexibility in these processes • Build awareness, authenticity and empathy in communication • Maximize your agency and efficacy in making constructive change Day 2: Navigating Interactive Power Dynamics in Fluid Organizational Hierarchies Do you regularly collaborate with others? Are you a consultant or project lead? Do you work in an environment where the organizational boundaries are blurred? Navigating Power Dynamics will give you insights and strategies to be a more effective facilitator and leader, regardless of your organizational position. Using similar methods as in Day 1, experiential exercises will draw from scenarios related to participants’ own contexts. Debriefs will refocus on more practical and professional applications of the model. Going deeper into the work, Simo and Barbara will show you how to put the framework into action in your workplace for increased collaboration, creativity and productivity. Goals for Day 2 include: • Integrate and mobilize differing forms of individual and team power for more effective multidisciplinary, agile teams across organizational silos • Learn how to cultivate organic and fluid leadership and greater collaboration in the absence of rank and role • Understand how information flow in organizations is affected with status behavior and use of power • Leverage interventions to increase productivity within flat or fluid organizational structures • Improve individual and group performance in complex, volatile and chaotic environments We look forward to working and learning and playing with you.

When boundaries are blurred and projects are complex, teamwork can present unique challenges. This is true for project leads, product managers, business or creative consultants. Agile teams are a great example – each individual is expected to solve complex problems, effect change, and resolve conflicts together, in a context that (by definition) is emergent, chaotic and volatile. This workshop will help strengthen your skills in building relationships and influencing others, even where there doesn’t appear to be common ground. As in Day 1, Simo and Barbara will lead experiential exercises, this time drawing from participants’ real-world scenarios and challenges for inspiration. Debriefs will refocus on more practical and professional applications of the model.

update Calagator::Event 1250468966 Dynamics of Status, Rank, Power, Esteem: A workshop exploring collaboration and leadership Roll back

description Hello!! We're thrilled to announce a groundbreaking new training in status and leadership coming to Portland! Come for a 1-day intro to this work, or stay for both days and explore how the model translates to cooperative team work. Everyone experiences the politics of power and status. But in our everyday lives, we’re often unaware of the underlying forces at play. In this workshop, facilitators Simo Routarinne and Barbara Tint introduce four key elements for understanding power dynamics in interpersonal and intergroup relations. These four elements operate simultaneously, persistently and often unconsciously in our daily interactions. Using experiential methods, participants will work together to learn about these processes, and will be coached on how to navigate them more effectively. This workshop is designed to provide participants with the opportunity to explore the application of these concepts to a wide range of social and organizational arenas. Day 1: Interactive Dynamics of Power, Status, Rank and Esteem Goals for Day 1 include: • Develop more insight and choice about the gap between your intentions and their impact • Identify the difference and connection between intentional and unintentional influence • Recognize different forms of power and how they impact social and organizational dynamics - including visible and invisible forms of power • Learn about your natural status patterns and your default comfort zones, and increase your range of choice and flexibility in these processes • Build awareness, authenticity and empathy in communication; explore how you and others show up in social and organizational dynamics • Maximize your own sense of personal agency and efficacy in making constructive change • Understand these processes as they relate to social constructs such as gender, culture and class Training will include theory, interactive role plays and group activities, experiential methods such as improvisational activities, experimentation with status choices, and exploration of power differentials. Debrief and reflection deepen the awareness and application of these concepts, and provide greater context for understanding one’s experiences in social and organizational settings. Day 2: Navigating Interactive Power Dynamics in Fluid Organizational Hierarchies Do you regularly collaborate with others? Are you a consultant or project lead? Do you work in an environment where the organizational boundaries are blurred? Navigating Power Dynamics will give you insights and strategies to be a more effective facilitator and leader, regardless of your organizational position.

description nil <h3>17 February 2016 — 6 to 7pm</h3> <h3>Our Topic</h3> There are few things given more skepticism by the geeks of the world than marketing. Indeed, we like to see ourselves as above the buzzwords and cheesy stock photographs, safe in a world where the empirically best solution is the one that will win out. But there's a problem. Marketing, and especially branding, is critical to the geek's career. Indeed, geeks from John Gruber to Jeff Atwood have become big names in programming, and it's not by accident- they know how to make and expose a great, genuine professional identity. Projects turn from hobbyist hacks to enterprise concerns thanks to their clear, strong branding. For the successful geek, branding is essential, but we can be just too skeptical to take advantage. Well, no longer. I've trudged through the marketing landscape and found the bits that anyone can be okay with applying. I'll go through finding an authentic identity for yourself or your next project, so you can put together an appealing image without having to lie through your teeth. And I'll back it up not with lofty promises, but with a skeptic's favorite thing: science. <h3>Our speaker, Zoe Landon</h3> Zoe Landon has been messing with computers since childhood and making them work more or less correctly for the last 8 years. She has a Software Engineering degree mostly used for front-end web development, and a Creative Writing minor mostly used for confusing people. Zoe's many entrepreneurial efforts have resulted in an interview with Sir Christopher Lee, vulgarities from a British rock band, and other minor successes. She can often be found partaking in trivia and wearing a silly hat. <a href="https://twitter.com/hupfen">Follow Zoe on Twitter</a>.

description nil <h3>21 October 2015 — Doors at 6pm, Talk at 6:30pm</h3> <h3>Our Topic</h3> With this new surge of bootcamp graduates and career changers gone tech, we’ve found ourselves with an interesting conundrum - there is so much talent out there, but these new candidates are "just too green." Employers are often concerned about the costs of on-boarding junior developers. Meanwhile, knowledgable, enthusiastic, and bright junior candidates are chomping at the bit, waiting for their opportunity to be recognized for their unique talents. This talk will explore pieces to the puzzle that will help transform this new influx of juniors from "green" to "lean, mean, coding machines," consequently making them invaluable members of your team. However, this can only be accomplished if both parties are equally invested in the process. <h3>Our speaker, Amy Vaillancourt-Sals</h3> A professional-musician-turned-developer, Amy graduated from <a href="http://www.epicodus.com/">Epicodus</a> (a Portland-based programming bootcamp) and landed a job at <a href="http://thinkshout.com/">ThinkShout</a> where she builds creative web solutions for non-profit organizations. Previous work includes being a community relations specialist for the online music tech companies, Discogs and Bandcamp. When she’s not coding, or actively striving to make the world a better place, she can be found swinging from a high-flying trapeze, or kiteboarding down the Columbia river.

description Startup Happy Hour! is a friendly, informal gathering of like-minded people from the Portland Startup Scene. There are no pitches, no nametags, and no agenda – just hanging out, making new connections, and enjoying each other's company. We're meeting this Friday at 4:30 PM at the Green Dragon. When you arrive, please gather in the area by the back bar. We request that guests mingle around freely rather than clustering around a single table - this makes it easier for everyone to meet each other and network effectively. You are welcome to arrive and leave at leisure -- the start and end times function within a fluid continuum. That said, we find that the event works best when most people arrive within the first 15 minutes or so. Hope to see you there!
