WEEK 2
Colum Ferry | Don't Get Swamped at Work!
Feeling like you're constantly drowning in work? You’re not alone! This talk is all about helping you take back control of your time and priorities so you can get more done without burning out. We’ll talk about how to juggle deadlines, handle your to-do list, and focus on what really matters—without letting the small stuff overwhelm you.

But it’s not just about ticking off tasks. We’ll also dive into why balancing work and life is crucial for your mental health and how to create time for yourself—even in the busiest of schedules. You’ll walk away with practical tips to manage your workload, stay on top of deadlines, and even make room for learning and growth, all while avoiding the stress of feeling overworked.

Joel Tosi & Dion Stewart | Learning in the Flow of Work - Your Dojo
Learning has historically been treated as an outlier - you leave your team and your work and go somewhere to learn a concept. You learn this concept away from your work, away from the constraints of your organization, your current context, and success is measured by completing the time there. Learning in complex environments requires better. We can do better.

In this session we will explore what immersive, continuous learning environments look like. We will cover core concepts of learning in the flow of work, give examples of how teams apply these principles, and show how this approach makes product work...easier and more fun.
