DESCRIPTION:Refresh Portland is presenting this special event. We're hono
 red to be hosting Daniel Szuc\, who is coming all the way from Hong Kong
  just for us. Tickets are on sale now for $10. Snacks and drinks provide
 d.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nWhat if we could create an ecosystem that encourages p
 eople to thrive?  &#13\;\n&#13\;\nPeople love …&#13\;\n&#13\;\nWorking w
 ith other people and projects that matters&#13\;\nPositively influencing
  and learning from the people they work with&#13\;\nEnergising people th
 ey work with to be and do better&#13\;\nHaving a shared sense of narrati
 ve and purpose&#13\;\nContinuously learning from customers.&#13\;\n&#13\
 ;\n&#13\;\nBut sometimes people spend significant amounts of time at wor
 k on projects that do not provide meaning for themselves and others. &#1
 3\;\n&#13\;\nWe all get caught up with the workings\, speed and delivery
  of our projects that we forget about …&#13\;\n&#13\;\nOur own wellbeing
 &#13\;\nTo reflect on our project stories and observations&#13\;\nTo sha
 re those observations with the people we work with on our own teams and 
 on other teams&#13\;\nCollate the aggregated learnings from projects to 
 determine what it means for better integrated practices over time.&#13\;
 \n&#13\;\n&#13\;\nThis results in people feeling purposeless\, stressed\
 , unhealthy and in a state of “sleepwalking.” &#13\;\n&#13\;\nSo this pr
 esentation together will help us …&#13\;\n&#13\;\nTake a step back and b
 reather from our projects&#13\;\nExamine the frustrations at work&#13\;\
 nLook at what a successful project does and does not do&#13\;\nExamine t
 he soft skills needed to nurture our own capabilities&#13\;\nLook at key
  project artifacts needed to help us prioritise and focus on what matter
 s&#13\;\nLook at an integrated framework for make meaningful work&#13\;\
 n&#13\;\n&#13\;\nFinally\, this presentation will leave participants wit
 h a manifesto for make meaningful work and an integrated framework to he
 lp us all move from being stuck (“Sleepwalking”) on projects to help us 
 flow (“Sparkle”).&#13\;\n&#13\;\nOur Presenter\, Daniel Szuc&#13\;\nDan 
 is a co-founder and principal at Apogee and co-founder of Make Meaningfu
 l Work\, as well as the co-founder of UX Hong Kong. He has been involved
