Our focus will be deliberate stakeholder communication and wh y it is more important now than ever before. Meaningfully communicating throughout an organization is at the core of what product managers do an d is 100% crucial to the success of a team. \;\n \;\nHowever\, hav ing effective conversations to drive progress of a product can be challe nging. What are ways you can establish two-way communication with intern al and external stakeholders? How do you identify when your communicatio ns are failing so you can course-correct? How can you virtually recreate random hallway conversations when you are no longer working from the sa me physical space? How do you communicate in a matrixed organization whe n you work with people who are not stakeholders? We’ll cover these topic s and more to find compelling communication strategies for you to use at companies of any size. Product managers\, those thinking about starting a career in product management\, or folks who interface with product ma nagers will all benefit from this discussion. \;\n \;\nThe panel d iscussion will feature: \;\n \;\nModerator: Arezou Seifpour\, Prod uct Lead at Auxon \;\nPanelist: Ariel Aguilar\, Senior Product Manage r at Nike \;\nPanelist: Sadie Dickman\, Product Director at Kaplan No rth America \;\nPanelist: Katrina Sperry\, Product Manager at Gabbi&# 13\;\n \;\nAgenda: \;\n \;\n12:00 p.m. - PDXWIT and host welcom e \;\n12:05 p.m. - Panelist introductions \;\n12:10 p.m. - Panel d iscussion \;\n12:45 p.m. - Q&\;A \;\n1:00 p.m. - Event ends \;\n \;\nPurpose: \;\nPDXWIT encourages women\, non-binary and und errepresented people to join and stay in tech. \;\nOur events are inc lusive.

Public key encryption requires protection of the private key. If control of the private key is lost\, all reasoning about signatures and encryption is compromised. Storing private keys on a hard disk and processed by the PC makes the private key vulnerable to compromise. A Yu bikey promises to key your private key secret. There will also be a digr ession during the presentation into so-called true Random Number Generat ors\, e.g. ChaosKey and InfiniteNoise. \;\n \;\nMany will head to the Lucky Lab at 1945 NW Quimby St. after the meeting. \;\n \;\nRi deshares to the Lucky Lab available \;\n \;\nPLUG is open to every one and does not tolerate abusive behavior on its mailing lists or at it s meetings.\n\nTags: plug\, linux\, bsd\, unix\, networking\, education\ , devops\, open source\, beer\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/eve nts/1250474985 URL:http://pdxlinux.org SUMMARY:Portland Linux/Unix Group: PGP Key Storage with a Yubikey 4 LOCATION:Portland State University Fourth Avenue Building (FAB) Room FAB 86-01: 1900 Southwest 4th Avenue\, Portland OR 97201 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20181031T040639Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20181105T180000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20181105T160000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20181031T040639Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20181031T040639Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250474503 DESCRIPTION:What if once a month\, one of us agreed to block a couple of hours for a series of 10 minute meetings with folks who have been trying to get on your calendar? \;\n \;\nI know\, crazy right? No wait. There’s more. What if this block of meetings occurred at a coffee shop o r maybe even a bar? \;\n \;\nStill with me? Because here’s where i t gets wacky. \;\n \;\nWhat if we all showed up at that same place those meetings were happening? Because we were invited. Not because it was random or something. And we invited other community members to hang out there too\, like a happy hour. Then we ask the folks having meetings to do their homework to make the meeting efficient\, to show up early f or their meeting time\, and to stay late so they get to meet more people — and get connected more quickly. It might even be that in the middle o f one of our 10 min meetings\, we could just point at someone in the cro wd and be like “That’s the person you need to talk to\, right there.” 3\;\n \;\nIn my head\, I’ve been calling the “Bottleneck.” Because th at’s what I am.
