Write a One-Page Business Plan
Roll back
| description |
VISION: To host a "Write a One-Page Business Plan" workshop this month. Vision, Market Need, Team, Marketing, Operations, Finance. For social venture and business ideas. With ongoing support of people here.
OPERATIONS: "Collective Agency" has volunteer events on evenings and weekends. Saturday Sept 24th. A two hour workshop, 10am-12pm, with people going to lunch afterward, and individuals and groups being here ongoing for support.
MARKET NEED: So many people could be better at describing what they want to do or are doing, in a page or less (defining priorities!). Why? For other people to know what the idea is, what the logistics are, and know what they can do to help.
FINANCIALS: Consultants/coaches/individuals can charge on their own if they'd like to, but this will start out free of charge. Each person who participates should expect to get something fulfilling out of it.
TEAM: Alex Linsker will facilitate the event with other Collective Agency supporters, including @Cacophonous_Joy who specializes in Vision, and hopefully many new people.
MARKETING: People will tell people, and RSVP via email, Plancast, Facebook or Twitter. Calagator and other events calendars. Please RSVP and tell friends and co-workers. |

PADNUG: Asynchronous Programming Futures for .NET (C# 5 / VB 11)
Roll back
| description |
This session will take a peek into the future and examine some of the features proposed for C# 5.0. This includes studying async methods which are part of C# 5.0 and build on the PFx Task library. We will also briefly look at the PFx Task libraries to gain the necessary background for working with the new language features. Note that Visual Basic 11 will also have these identical features so in essence we'll be covering VB 11 as well.
Presented by Michael Kennedy.

Please join us Tuesday night for the PADNUG September meet-up!
Michael Kennedy will be presenting on asynchronous programming futures for .NET.
WHERE:
Intel Ronler Acres RA1 Auditorium
2501 NW 229th Avenue
Hillsboro, OR 97124
Map: http://www.bing.com/maps/explore/?org=aj#/fotw1o04svrqm3xg
WHEN:
Tuesday 9/6/2011
6:00 p.m. Pizza
6:30 p.m. Presentation
~8:30 p.m. After Words at On the Border Mexican Grill
WHO:
Michael is an instructor for DevelopMentor, a .NET enthusiast, an agile pioneer, an entrepreneur, a father of three girls, a husband, a student, and a teacher. His blog is at http://www.michaelckennedy.net/blog.
TOPIC:
This session will take a peek into the future and examine some of the features proposed for C# 5.0. This includes studying async methods which are part of C# 5.0 and build on the PFx Task library. We will also briefly look at the PFx Task libraries to gain the necessary background for working with the new language features. Note that Visual Basic 11 will also have these identical features so in essence we'll be covering VB 11 as well.

Innovation in Motion: Zero Moment of Truth - A New Model for Modern Marketing
Roll back
| description |
nil |

Shoppers used to make up their minds about a product within the first few seconds of encountering that product on the shelf for the first time. In 2005, Procter & Gamble coined this interaction as âThe First Moment of Truthâ. With the rise of internet use today, shoppers are now experiencing many brand interactions before they see the product on a shelf. This phenomenon (and marketing opportunity) is what Google is calling the âZero Moment of Truthâ. Eighty-three percent of shoppers make their purchase decisions prior to entering a store. This means that marketers now need to ensure that consumers receive a consistent and positive experience â from the Zero Moment of Truth to the point of purchase and beyond. Join our interactive marketing experts for innovative case-study examples and a lively discussion about what the Zero Moment of Truth means for both large and small brands.
Cost: Free â With beer and food provided. RSVP now to reserve your seat â space is limited.

RBXDay Ruby/Rubinius Hackathon
Roll back
| description |
A global day of Rubinius performance testing, bug reporting, community strengthening and super awesome fun times!
Come join <a href="http://geoloqi.org">Geoloqi</a> at the <a href="http://www.piepdx.com">Portland Incubator Experiment</a> and spend a day testing your ruby code with Rubinius! We will have tools to benchmark and load test your ruby web applications, which you can use to determine how well your app runs on Rubinius (or any other ruby interpreter). We will be providing any bug reports and results to the Rubinius team, which will go towards helping their development efforts.
There are also plans to document an extensive suite of benchmarks and load tests for all the major ruby web servers (Webrick, Mongrel, Thin, Rainbows, etc), with a focus on testing concurrency and determining which servers work best on Rubinius.
There will be food and good beer provided! Feel free to bring snacks. |

Pitch Club
Roll back
| description |
Want to practice your startup pitch in front of people who've done it before? Crave the harsh criticism of your peers? Need the validation of seeing what works and what doesn't in other pitches?
Bring your 3 minute pitch. Put your name in a hat and if it gets picked, you're on. Powerpoints discouraged - just pitch. Then, answer questions and listen to painfully honest feedback from a panel of so-called experts.
The first rule of Pitch Club is you HAVE TO PITCH.
The second rule of Pitch Club is you HAVE TO PITCH. It doesn't have to be your startup - pitch your blog, your ideas for turning cat feces into gold, or your plan for world domination.
More rules as we think of them.
FAQ:
Q: Who are these so-called experts and what are they going to do to me?
A: Your pitch will be evaluated by entrepreneurs and people who pitch for a living. They are your superiors.
Q: What about NDAs? Someone's going to steal my idea!
A: There are no NDAs - use your best judgment about what to talk about and what not to. Also, remember the first rule of fight club - don't talk about fight club. We're all on the honor system here.
Q: My pitch is more than 3 minutes - can I have more time?
A: No.
Q: Will it be catered?
A: Hell no. You know what's in the lobster bisque.
Q: Can anyone critique a pitch?
A: No, only the panel. |

Bring your 3 minute pitch. Put your name in a hat and if it gets picked, you're on. Leave your Powerpoint at home - just pitch. Then, answer questions and listen to painfully honest feedback from a panel of so-called experts.
The first rule of Pitch Club is you have to be ready to pitch. No teams, no moral support, no looky-loos.
More rules as we think of them.
FAQ:
Q: Who are these so-called experts and what are they going to do to me?
A: Your pitch will be evaluated by tech entrepreneurs who have pitched and gotten funded. They are your superiors.
Q: What about NDAs? Someone's going to steal my idea!
A: There are no NDAs - use your best judgment about what to talk about and what not to. Also, remember the first rule of fight club - don't talk about fight club. We're all on the honor system here.

Strategy Execution: The Balanced Scorecard Approach
Roll back
| description |
The Balanced Scorecard and Strategy Map (BalSC-StratMap) combination is an increasingly popular strategic toolset that all OD practitioners should become familiar with. Not only is the BalSC-StratMap a powerful tool for turning strategies into executable realities, it is also liable to arrive in the OD practitioner's environment without warning (often by way of the CEO or a board member learning about it at a seminar and becoming enthusiastic). The prepared OD professional will be able to help make the BalSC-StratMap a success. Without significant OD assistance, BalSC-StratMap initiatives may flounder and fail.
Just as significantly, BalSC-StratMap approaches can directly assist in boosting individual productivity by providing three of the Five Preconditions of Top Performance. In this program, Tom Cox will elaborate on this relationship and lead us in creating a BalSC-StratMap for Oregon ODN. As a result of the session, participants will have an experience-based perspective on BalSC-StratMap and how it affects both organizational and individual performance. Multiple samples will be shared, along with templates and a bibliography of sources.
Cost:
Free to current members in good standing of ODN, ASTD-Cascadia, PHRMA and PMI.
The cost for non-members is $10. The $10 fee can be used to offset the annual membership investment of $75.00 if paid at the program. |
