In August 2015, my business/life partner and I both wanted to attend a national software development conference. The only catch? I had a ten week old baby at home. We used Agile software development practices to help us decide what to do and learned some interesting things during our experience.

The female leader is essential in an organization. Every female can’t be same, probably will not be same at least. Every group of female friends is different if a group of girls is taken into consideration. There may be different personalities which are distinct and each of the personality have different or sometimes multiple roles to play. And the dynamics with the presence of women in any group will differ to each and every individual that are present in the group.

An investigator’s job is to come to an unbiased conclusion about something that has occurred. But if the investigator is impacted by unconscious biases, staying impartial can be challenging. It’s important, therefore, for anyone conducting investigations to recognize the potential for bias and work towards eliminating it. The more we understand our own biases, and the vulnerability we all have to be influenced by cognitive biases, the more we can do to prevent these biases from impacting our decision making.Join Amy Oppenheimer, attorney, author and leading expert on workplace investigations, teaches investigators to conduct impartial investigations that aren’t affected by unconscious biases or the influence of external forces. Webinar attendees will learn: To identify the different forms of unconscious bias The impact that bias can have on an investigation How to recognize the signs of unconscious bias What the Implicit Association Test (IAT) can teach us about unconscious bias What studies have taught us about bias in different segments, such as law and education What confirmation bias is and how to avoid it

There’s heaps of fascinating research about the many behavioral biases we are all subject to as individuals. These include remarkable optical distortions and the way we miss the obvious when we are concentrating on something else. We have a tendency to overestimate ourselves - most famously 90% of drivers assess themselves as above average in ability. We have an attachment to what we already own - how come we won’t buy concert tickets from scalpers at an inflated price, and simultaneously won’t sell tickets we own at face value? We also tend to overweigh risks, even against the chance of regret rather than actual loss. It’s no surprise then that group decisions are even more flawed. So how can we overcome biased decision making? Here are some biases that we often see, followed by some techniques we use to overcome them. We have found that by applying these techniques companies can make better decisions, which in turn increases their resource reallocation and creates more profitable growth.

Breaking the Code of Interview Implicit Bias to Value Different Gender Competencies Bonita Banducci, Banducci Consulting Live at Santa Clara University - Room #330C located on the 3rd floor of the Learning Commons Voices 2015 - www.globaltechwomen.com Session Length: 1 hour Implicit Bias Workshops and exercises are being shared widely on the internet. Some of the solutions are: "Determine precisely what skills and attributes you are hiring for." "Ask exactly the same questions to each candidate." But what about the implicit bias in determining what skills you are valuing--beyond traditional management and leadership competencies? How can interviewers recognize the often invisible, unarticulated, undervalued and often misinterpreted competencies of more "relational and collectivist" people--often women and men and women from different cultures? Bonita Banducci teaches Gender and Engineering class in Santa Clara University's School of Engineering Graduate Program. In video and cartoon representation as well as in person, her students apply Gender Competence®--understanding and skills to work with gender (and cultural) differences as competencies--to job interviews both as the interviewer and the interviewee, as men and women. They show how to "mine the gold" of difference for the best candidate AND to get the job as the best candidate while establishing the value of relational competencies in the workplace and marketplace.

This list includes some of our favorite smart women on Twitter—and some crowd-sourced suggestions as well. The list is meant to celebrate women who are shaping important conversations across a wide range of topics, industries, vocations and avocations. The work these women are doing represents a breadth of creativity and diversity of intellectual perspectives. Some of these are bold face names, but many are less well known. What they have in common is that they all share an intellectual curiosity and a willingness to step out of the wings and onto the main stage of business to talk about their pursuits.

This presentation deals with with the power of TRANSPARENCY. How companies around the world, big and small ,are embracing total transparency with complete respect to privacy. to male the societies we live in fair and equitable The transparency is allowing them to build extraordinary trust and thrive in a world of increasing skepticism and extraordinary data where the ability to distinguish between truths and half truths or fact from fiction is becoming increasingly challenging and often impossible. The transparency is allowing corporations to delight customers and drive a level of personalisation that has never been seen before. Data lies at the heart of this transparency and combined with Machine learning and Artificial intelligence is breaking new grounds in customer obsession. Consumers are seeking this transparency and rewarding companies with their loyalty and more willing to pay premiums. This is cutting across progressive governments, companies, brands, shareholders, employees and is even driving richer peer to peer collaboration. The holy grail of total consumer transparency is when infotech meets Biotech revealing our every action and a wide range of emotions .Lastly the presentation makes an effort to characterise this phenomenon across industries from food, health & media to transportation, retail and fashion among others.

Science and technology are fundamental factors in the growth and development of every society. Strong STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) education is vital to students’ success in an increasingly technological and global economy. It is a critical building block for exploration, innovation, and the economy, and the catalyst to attack problems affecting the world… and it is a catalyst for jobs. The under-representation of women in STEM fields is a potentially massive loss economically.

Building software these days often requires working with people whose skillsets and backgrounds are vastly different from yours. But sometimes, it can seem like our thinking styles just don’t align and working together is impossible. In this talk, Andrea Goulet, (a strategist), will share her story of building a business with M. Scott Ford (a technician) and the unusual communication tricks they had to develop to finally understand each other. You’ll walk away with specific and immediately implementable ideas on how to communicate with your team — especially the folks who think differently from you.

Why do so many smart and accomplished people immediately discount their abilities and call themselves “non-technical”? Software isn’t magic. It’s a skill. One that can be learned — if you have the right mindset. You don’t have to go to a fancy school, spend thousands of dollars, or move across the country. This knowledge is available to you no matter where you live and no matter what industry you come from. All you need to do is change the way you think. In this talk, Andrea Goulet will share her journey from not knowing how to code to becoming a industry leader. You'll get immediately actionable insights that will help you shatter glass ceilings, increase confidence, and grow your technical prowess.

Legacy code is notoriously difficult to produce an accurate estimate. Why is that? In this talk, we’ll explore the difference between complicated projects, which are easy to replicate and estimate, and complex projects, which are near impossible to predict due to the number of interdependencies in the system. You’ll walk away understanding when to reach for a tightly-scoped fixed-price proposal and when an exploratory time and materials approach is more appropriate. You’ll walk away understanding not if you should estimate a project, but rather when and how.

As presented at ProductCamp Boston June 2017. Technical debt gets accrued when you move fast and break things, which is awesome in the early stages of a startup. Left unchecked, technical debt can slow a development team to a grinding halt, frustrating founders and product owners. In this session, we'll demystify technical debt. You'll leave with a good understanding of what it is, when to accrue it, and how to pay it down.

Understanding Technical Debt: A Primer for Product Owners and Founders

Andrea Goulet

Presented at the Agile Alliance Technical Conference, April 2017 in Boston, MA. Legacy code. It's those dirty brownfield applications that no one wants to work on. How do you make sure that your project never becomes one of those dreaded projects? And if you’ve inherited a dirtfield app, how do you turn it back around into a gorgeous greenfield? The answer to both of these questions may surprise you: seeding your app with good communication artifacts. In this talk, Andrea Goulet, the CEO of Corgibytes, a shop that specializes in working on legacy code bases, will give you specific and immediately actionable ideas to ensure the legacy of your codebases stays as green as possible. You’ll learn how to: ● Avoid interruptions by effectively “seeding” artifacts throughout your work ● End the dreaded git blame game ● Create code that continues to provide value years after you write it. If you’re ready to take your code legacy to the next level, this is one talk you won’t want to miss!

Communication Artifacts: What's Your Code's Legacy?

Andrea Goulet

As presented at the PhillyETE conference in April 2017. When you think of a developer what comes to mind? A brogrammer living in San Francisco working 23 hours a day on the next Facebook? If so, you wouldn’t be alone. Like so many industries, software development is rife with stereotypes. And one that is particularly pervasive is the idea that all developers, if given the chance, would opt for a complete rewrite of an application. While it’s true that there are many software developers who do enjoy starting with a clean slate, there is also a group who loves working on making existing applications better. Rather than starting from scratch and building an 80% solution, these developers are ideal for taking over a project once it’s become stable, and nurturing it for a long time. Neither developer is better. Both are needed in the software world. In this talk, you’ll learn what motivates the small but passionate group of “menders” — people who love taking an existing project and making it better over time.

Software development culture has been dominated by the hero.

But this couldn't be further from the truth.

What holds brands back from creating engaging, effective content typically isn’t talent, but rather a complex cobweb of rules, regulations and business processes that get in the way. The best content marketing brands embrace a “culture of content.” They have a collaborative spirit. Leaders know how to articulate visions. Messaging foundations are documented. Approvals are swift and nimble. And creative professionals have the resources they need to execute engaging content in real time.

Top 20: Best & Hottest Russian Pornstars Right Now (2024) Russian Porn Stars Name From Alessandra Jane and Anna Polina to Gina Gerson and Selvaggia, visit niamh.in to discover 25 of the hottest Russian pornstars in 2024! Browse the hottest russian porn stars at niamh.in. ❤️Here you can find FREE porn pics of the best female pornstars from Russia. Looking for the hottest Russian pornstars of the year? Check out our list of the top 10 most beautiful Russian Porn stars at niamh.in. Russia is the largest country in the world which explains why so many of the hottest adult film stars hail from this vast nation. So if you’ve always loved exotic East European beauties, then listed below are 25 of the hottest Russian pornstars in 2024! https://www.niamh.in/indian-pornstars.html Top 25 Hottest Russian Pornstars In 2024 | Top 20+: Hottest, Best Russian Pornstars (2024) | Hottest Russian Pornstars, Top Porn Stars From Russia. https://escortsjaipur.com/indian-pornstars.html I am not sure what’s going on with Russian pornstars but I discovered that they all are really blessed when it comes to their physical appearance. I am not sure if that’s the case all over the country, or it’s only limited to the porn scene; but I would like to think that it’s a general case. I mean, the Russian girls in the industry all have gorgeous bodies, picture-perfect pussies and boobs, and they have cute and beautiful faces too. And, there’s also very few girls who go for fake tits as most prefer to stay natural, which is something that I find really fucking hot! But there are some pretty epic babes who have perfect fake titties as well! https://www.funtonight.in/indian-top-10-porn-stars.html Since I have prepared a ton of articles listing down several pornstars from different countries, I had to write about the Russian pornstars as well because it is a country that’s home to some of the most gorgeous women in the world. When you go through this list, you will notice that a lot of popular names are missing. You won’t find Marina Visconti, Krystal Boyd, Nikita Von James, Foxy Di and other similar pornstars here. There are two major reasons for that; one, we all already know about these girls; and two, they haven’t been active in the industry for years now. I have only mentioned the girls who are still active right now so don’t complain if you don’t see the retired girls on this list. https://www.dehradunescorts.in/indian-top-10-porn-stars.html
