Conversations: Let’s Talk about Death What does talking about death reveal to us about life and the way we choose to live it? What can we share and learn from each other about different cultural traditions that honour loved ones who have passed? What is the experience like for people who work with matters of death every day? Join us in this informal gathering in a conversation café format to talk about death with like-minded learners. A list of questions similar to the ones asked above will be provided to spark curiosity and stimulate thought-provoking conversations. Participants will meet first in small breakout groups, and then share insights with the larger group. IMPORTANT: We strongly recommend that you visit the ROM exhibition, Death: Life’s Greatest Mystery, before you attend this program. The Museum opens at 10 AM, and your Conversations ticket includes same-day admission to the exhibition. For more information, please visit the ROM website at: https://lnkd.in/gJw9evEp

F*CK the Slides. A few months back I had a very important pitch for funding for a new project I'm working on. I was fairly confident about the slide deck I had put together but wanted to get a second opinion from my good friend and master storyteller Nir Zavaro. Nir gave me advice that made me rethink the entire deck: F*CK the slides and focus on the story you want to tell. He then helped me rethink the entire presentation from scratch, focusing on the emotion, mission, and passion for the project, more than the dry facts, figures, and data. And this is exactly the kind of soft skills that I think is so desperately needed in #sciencecommunication today. Join me tomorrow in the 3rd Learning Lab put on by Academic Language Experts and learn directly from Nir how to build your story. ➡ https://lnkd.in/d8Psp-xv Can't make it live?

Enjoying the Functional Safety tutorial!

I spent the second half of last week at NewCrafts Conferences in Paris 🇫🇷 This is a conference that I've wanted to attend for years, and almost did in 2020 before the pandemic meant that it was cancelled. I'm so pleased that I got to make it this time and had the opportunity to speak. There were a couple of overall themes I took from the conference: 1. We are increasingly aware of the positive and negative impact that software can have on society and in turn, the impact that societal norms and biases can have on software and teams 2. No-one is really sure on what impact GenAI will have on the longer term role of the software developer or development team. Views ranged from 'we'll all be replaced" to "it'll likely have no impact" and the tools and techniques to leverage GenAI are still very immature. We're still figuring it out basically 😀 There were so many good talks and speakers. My particular highlights were: - Diana Montalion talking about how we should question our structures, patterns and mental models, including avoiding relying on super hero engineers, in order to continuously improve our organisations. - Andrew Harmel Law's keynote on the impact of societal power structures on software and how we can ensure there is freedom within teams. - Alberto Brandolini talking about DDD in the Product space - Martin Mazur's take on what impact GenAI will have on software development - Thierry de Pauw with a great history of Conways Law and associated work These are just a few of the excellent talks I saw, and it was great to have such an engaged audience for my presentation, My Team Is High Performing But Everyone Hates Us, which is all about building trust inside and outside high performing teams (slides available https://lnkd.in/e-w-uASn) I'm so pleased that I got to attend at last - massive thanks to the conference organisers Maxime Sanglan-Charlier Rui Carvalho Peter Even and everyone else who helped to make the event great. Hoping to be back next year 😉
