Ruling Principles and Code of Conduct
The Calgary UX is a community that aims to create a safe and welcoming environment for all attendees. We expect all participants to follow our ruling principles and code of conduct to achieve this.
Our ruling principles
Step 1: Build trust, and be kind.
Develop connections based on personal and professional trust. Kindness is at the core of every interaction.
Step 2: Create creative spaces
Create and maintain a safe space for deep-focused conversations, creative confidence and experimentation.
Step 3: Active collaboration
Perform short-term action plans with precise results in mind. We are all volunteers, be very transparent about how much time and energy you are willing and capable of committing.
These principles include building trust, creating a safe space for creative conversations and collaboration, and actively working together to achieve specific goals.
All participants must be considerate, respectful, and collaborative and refrain from demeaning, discriminatory, or harassing behaviour. Anyone who witnesses or experiences unacceptable behaviour should alert Calgary UX staff as soon as possible.
Any reports will be kept confidential, and Calgary UX staff will take appropriate action to ensure everyone feels safe. This code of conduct also applies to online interactions and social media. Calgary UX reserves the right to investigate and address incidents that violate these principles, even if they occur outside of Calgary UX events or if legal proceedings are pending.
Our common goal is to preserve our guiding principles and create a positive experience for everyone.

https://www.tickettailor.com/events/calgaryux/2024829Design work often asks us to think harder when what we actually need is to slow down, ground ourselves, and reconnect.
At UX Camp Calgary, Elisabet Camprubi is delivering a hands-on workshop for designers and practitioners seeking a different way to work through complexity. This session explores how presence and play can reduce overthinking, prevent burnout, and support clearer, more creative collaboration. Through grounding practices and LEGO Serious Play, we’ll work with the body as a compass. The focus is on psychological safety, emotional regulation, and communication in real design work, especially when things feel uncertain or messy.
Lego kit and dinner will be provided.
### What you’ll explore
- Grounding techniques that support clarity and emotional safety
- How play can ease creative pressure and unlock new ideas
- LEGO® Serious Play® as a tool for communication, collaboration, and trust
- Practical ways to stay calm, creative, and connected in day-to-day work
- Simple exercises you can adapt for team sessions and co-creation
