Remote Leadership Roundtables: What's Actually Working, a collab with TAO

Remote work isn't going anywhere—but the playbook is still being written.

We're teaming up with Technology Association of Oregon (TAO) to host an invite-only roundtable for tech-minded leaders from across the Greater Bend Area. This evening will bring together 30 executives and functional leaders (CTO, CIO, CPO, CMO, CHRO, VP/Director/Head peers) to trade what’s working, what’s not, and the lessons you won’t find in a LinkedIn post.

What to Expect

• Curated roundtable discussions (5–8 people each) led by experienced facilitators
• Honest conversation on productivity, culture, hiring, retention, and leadership in a remote/hybrid/distributed world
• Practical tips you can bring back to your team immediately
• Networking before and after with food, drinks and peers from enterprise, mid-market, and venture-backed companies

Why Attend

• Compare notes with leaders who share your challenges
• Walk away with real tactics and a stronger peer network
• Shape the collective playbook for leading in Bend’s evolving tech landscape

Who Should Apply
Tech-minded leaders from mid-market, enterprise, and venture-backed companies. Think CTO, CPO, CMO and corresponding VP/Director roles who are responsible for remote teams. Remote = distributed btw.

This is an invitation-only event with a simple application process. We're curating for diverse perspectives and genuine challenges, not just success stories.
