create Calagator::Event 1250463010 AgilePDX Downtown (evening) - Lean Coffee Roll back

description nil → Bring your questions. Bring your Problems. Join us for Lean Coffee facilitated by Dianna Larsen. Lean Coffee started in Seattle in 2009 when Jim Benson and Jeremy Lightsmith wanted to combine lean and Knowledge work. Now, Seattle Lean Coffee happens every week, and is very popular. Lean Coffee is a structured, but agenda-less meeting. Participants gather, build an agenda, and begin talking. Conversations are directed and productive because the agenda for the meeting was democratically generated. (http://leancoffee.org/) Details and Pizza: This event is free and is at Puppet Labs. It begins at 6:30 pm with pizza, sponsored by PNSQC (Many thanks to both Puppet Labs and PNSQC for supporting agile in Portland). The program starts at 7:00 pm.

description Join us for our 3rd Girl Geek Dinners event in Portland! We will be discussing how to get into the tech industry, job tips & tricks from recruiter Aimee Fahey and HR Manager Jenny Walsh of Giga Pan Systems! Have a question you'd like to ask Aimee and Jenny? Email us & we'll add it to the list during the Q&A portion of the evening. For more info, to get involved or to sponsor this event or other upcoming GGD event email us. [email protected] → It's no secret there is a depressing lack of women in technology & STEM related careers—even worse is the societal focus on the problem not the solution. The solution is clear: inspire women to pursue their interests in technology and provide a support system with wisdom and encouragement to develop their careers. Join us for a honest and proactive conversation about all things career; from resume & interview tips to salary neogations to dealing with cultural norms & expectations to unique insight on how we as women can kick ass AND climb the ladder. Our conversation will be lead by Jenny Walsh, VP Web Services, GigaPan Systems - http://www.gigapan.com and Aimee Fahey, Recruiting Consultant & Career Coach - http://ecogrrlconsulting.wordpress.com One of Portland's favorite food trucks will be on site from 5-7pm to purchase your favorite food truck treats before and during the event. Various yummy snacks & beverages will be provided as well. Attendees are invited to submit questions about technology & STEM careers for a Q&A discussion. Questions can be submitted via Email, Twitter or FB. HUGE thanks to our friends at Urban Airship for hosting the event. As always men are encouraged to attend.

The first generation of programmers are retiring right now, and I plan to examine their experience contributing to open source software. Most open source communities are notoriously homogeneous, dominated by 20-30something white males. Through my research, I hope to provide open source communities with a proposal for involving older adults. During the talk, I'll go over my research goals, how I plan meet those goals, and discuss some of the human-computer interaction research methods that I'm using.
