Imagine your organisation is going through a major change programme—such as a platform migration, system rollout, or large operational transformation. During these periods, service desks and call centre teams can generate thousands of incident tickets in a very short time. Although organisations typically define the correct format for logging incidents, the reality on the ground is often very different. Agents are under pressure, dealing with high call volumes and urgent user requests. As a result, many tickets are created quickly, often with incomplete, inconsistent, or poorly structured information. The consequence? Service teams struggle to triage effectively. Common challenges include: Thousands of tickets describing the same issue in different ways Poor data quality that makes analysis difficult Difficulty identifying duplicate or related incidents Delays in identifying the true root cause Valuable operational time spent manually reviewing tickets So the key question becomes: How can we triage thousands of incidents when the data itself is messy? In this interactive workshop, we will explore how Atlassian Rovo Agents can help solve this problem. Together we will design and build a multi-role Rovo Agent capable of analysing incident data and helping service teams make better decisions faster. During the session we will: Create a Rovo Agent live Configure roles that analyse incident information Interpret poorly structured ticket data Identify patterns and group related incidents Automatically highlight duplicate or similar tickets Support smarter triage and prioritisation Enable the potential to automatically close duplicate incidents This workshop is designed to be hands-on and practical. Rather than simply discussing concepts, we will build the Rovo Agent together and see how it works in action. By the end of the session, you will see how AI-powered agents can transform chaotic ticket queues into structured insights that enable faster triage and informed operational decisions. Whether you work in IT Service Management, Service Operations, Platform Engineering, or AI-enabled support teams, this session will provide practical insight into how Rovo Agents can help manage incident volumes at scale. Join us as we turn ticket chaos into intelligent triage. Predstavljajte si, da vaša organizacija prehaja skozi obsežen program sprememb — na primer migracijo platforme, uvedbo novega sistema ali večjo operativno transformacijo. V takšnih obdobjih lahko službe za podporo uporabnikom in klicni centri v zelo kratkem času ustvarijo na tisoče incidentnih zahtevkov. Čeprav organizacije običajno določijo pravilen način beleženja incidentov, je realnost na terenu pogosto precej drugačna. Agentje so pod pritiskom, soočajo se z velikim številom klicev in nujnimi zahtevami uporabnikov. Zato se številni zahtevki ustvarijo zelo hitro, pogosto z nepopolnimi, nedoslednimi ali slabo strukturiranimi informacijami. Posledica? Podporne ekipe težko učinkovito izvajajo triažo. Pogosti izzivi vključujejo: Na tisoče zahtevkov, ki opisujejo isto težavo na različne načine Slabo kakovost podatkov, ki otežuje analizo Težave pri prepoznavanju podvojenih ali povezanih incidentov Zamude pri odkrivanju pravega vzroka težave Veliko operativnega časa, porabljenega za ročno pregledovanje zahtevkov Ključno vprašanje zato postane: Kako lahko izvajamo triažo na tisočih incidentov, ko so podatki sami po sebi neurejeni? Na tej interaktivni delavnici bomo raziskali, kako lahko Atlassian Rovo Agent pomaga rešiti ta problem. Skupaj bomo zasnovali in zgradili večvlogni Rovo Agent, ki bo sposoben analizirati podatke o incidentih in podpornim ekipam pomagati hitreje sprejemati boljše odločitve. Med delavnico bomo: v živo ustvarili Rovo Agenta konfigurirali vloge za analizo informacij o incidentih interpretirali slabo strukturirane podatke iz zahtevkov prepoznali vzorce in združevali povezane incidente samodejno izpostavili podvojene ali podobne zahtevke podprli pametnejšo triažo in določanje prioritet omogočili potencial za samodejno zapiranje podvojenih incidentov Delavnica je zasnovana praktično in interaktivno. Namesto zgolj razprave o konceptih bomo Rovo Agenta skupaj zgradili in videli, kako deluje v praksi. Do konca srečanja boste videli, kako lahko agenti, podprti z umetno inteligenco, kaotične vrste zahtevkov spremenijo v strukturirane vpoglede, ki omogočajo hitrejšo triažo in bolj informirane operativne odločitve. Ne glede na to, ali delate na področju upravljanja IT storitev (IT Service Management), operacij storitev, platformnega inženiringa ali AI-podprte podpore, vam bo ta delavnica ponudila praktičen vpogled v to, kako lahko Rovo Agenti pomagajo obvladovati velike količine incidentov. Pridružite se nam in skupaj spremenimo kaos zahtevkov v inteligentno triažo.

This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

Communication is everything in life! You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate.
