\>\>\>\>\>\>\> All Info and registration here: https://interbeing\.ch/living\-diversity/ **– *Understand our differences and connect in conflict* –** In this course, we explore together how we can be with each other in our differences. We learn how to communicate more effectively with our loved ones, colleagues and even with people who share opposite opinions. * How can I feel understood, even when you see things differently? * How can I connect with people who think, feel, or live differently from me? * How to navigate conflict without losing myself or the other? * How to meet diversity with curiosity instead of fear? Before connecting with others, we get to know ourselves: Find out what is behind our triggers and judgments, identify our feelings and needs. This inner clarity strengthens our self empowerment and the ability to meet others on eye level instead of betraying ourself, giving up our wishes, or dominating the conversation. We learn to better understand each other in our differences and invite cooperation. We explore movements beyond polarizing debates, while staying true to ourselves, so we can belong a bit more rather than merely fit in. ## We research how to: * Listen more deeply to ourself and gain inner clarity about our needs and what really matters to us * Realise when we need self care before connecting with others * Find inner clarity when we’re triggered * Stand honestly for our needs, express our wishes and invite cooperation * Grow capacity in understanding other viewpoints * See the beautiful messages behind our judgments and the judgments of others * Be in conflict with care and connection **Facilitation Style:** During each session, we offer theoretical input, live demonstrations, group discussions, and two to three guided exercises. We share insights and tips inspired by Nonviolent Communication (NVC) by [Yoram Mosenzon](https://www.connecting2life.net/trainer/yoram-mosenzon/) and Marshall Rosenberg. But foremost we invite you to find your own way. To develop your own communication style with your inner parts and your fellow humans. Part of the sessions will be shaped by the wishes and interests of the group. We might offer themed evenings that dive deeper into specific areas of diversity where staying connected can be difficult (such as race, gender, sexual orientation, neurodivergence, mental health, illness and disability, diet, relationship styles, cultural background, political views, and our ways of relating to money and consumption,…) or explore more depth some conflict situation. You’re warmly invited to bring your personal situations so we can work with concrete, lived experiences. \>\>\>\>\>\>\> All Info and registration here: https://interbeing\.ch/living\-diversity/

A decade. Hundreds of conversations, ideas, and inspirations. And we're celebrating with a meetup that truly delivers. Three exceptional speakers, topics that matter, and plenty of room for what has made this meetup special for 10 years: real people, real conversations, real networking. **The Evening at a Glance** 17:30 Doors open, first drinks, familiar faces and new ones 18:00 Welcome and a brief look back at 10 years of DevOps Meetup Zurich 18:15–18:45 **Claws in the Dark: Bringing DevSecOps to Legacy Hardware with Robotics and Playwright** by Alexander Friesen 18:45–19:15 **Beyond Agile: Structuring Organizations for Real Autonomy** by Lea Düker 19:15–19:25 Short break 19:25–19:55 **From Bottlenecks to Flow: OKRs, Value Stream Management, and Governance Done Right** by Vasileios Konofaos 19:55–20:15 Panel discussion with all three speakers 20:15 Networking, Open Space, snacks, drinks, and anniversary cake 🎂 **Claws in the Dark: Bringing DevSecOps to Legacy Hardware with Robotics and Playwright** What do you do when your software’s "deployment target" is a piece of security hardware embedded in a concrete wall for 20 years? In the world of access control, we don't have the luxury of "move fast and break things"—if the integration fails, the door stays locked. For decades, hardware development at Primion relied on manual bit-shifting, incomplete specifications, and the "read, write, and pray" method. When the pandemic decentralized our R&D department—scattering 60 developers across Europe—the traditional model of physical bench testing collapsed. We couldn't send a lab to everyone’s home, so we brought the developers to the lab through robotics. In this session, we deep-dive into how we bridged the physical-digital divide by building a fully automated hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing farm. We will explore: * The Architecture: How we orchestrate GitLab CI, Azure ephemeral environments, and Playwright to drive physical interactions. * The Hardware Hack: How a 200 CHF robotic claw replaced manual testing, allowing developers to "touch" hardware from anywhere in the world. * The Shift-Left Strategy: Moving from "praying for compatibility" to robust integration testing that catches bit-level errors before they ever hit the factory floor. * Scaling on a Budget: How a single working student scaled our setup to 20+ (and rising) automated test cells. Join us to see how "claws moving in the dark" turned hardware debugging from a nightmare into a breeze, and learn how to apply DevSecOps principles to the most stubborn, physical environments. **Alexander Friesen** Aexander is a **Lead IT Architect** with over a decade of experience in software architecture and technical leadership. He specializes in building and scaling modern ecosystems for major enterprises like **Swisscard** and **Siemens**. DevOps & Platform Engineering Highlights * **Platform Leadership:** Directed technical strategy for Siemens’ IoT flagship "BuildingX" and managed multi-million dollar budgets for large-scale SAFe trains. * **Automation & Compliance:** Expert in **DevSecOps**, achieving ISO27000 compliance through automated CI/CD pipelines and security scanning. * **Efficiency Gains:** Improved software team productivity by **30%** through the implementation of AI Ops and Internal Developer Platforms. * **Cloud Native Stack:** Certified **AWS Architect** with deep expertise in Kubernetes, Terraform, Serverless, and **Data Mesh** architectures. * **Global Teams:** Proven track record of leading cross-functional engineering teams across Switzerland, Germany, the USA, and India. **Beyond Agile: Structuring Organizations for Real Autonomy** Many organizations invest in agile methods, DevOps, and new technologies, and yet the desired impact on collaboration, accountability, and decision-making often fails to materialize. A key lever for change lies in how organizations are structured. This talk provides an introduction to Holacracy as a model for radical self-organization and places it within the broader landscape of organizational development. It explains what defines Holacracy, the principles behind it, and the problems it aims to address. The focus, however, is not solely on the organizational model. The talk also presents concrete tools and practices of self-organization, such as clear role definitions, structured decision-making processes, and transparent governance, that can be applied regardless of the organizational structure in place. **Lea Düker** * Since 2024: IT Project Manager and Scrum Master at digital agency Unic AG * 2021–2024: Project Manager and Deputy Head of IT at the Building Department of the City of Zurich * 2018–2021: Consultant for Process Management at Join GmbH * 2016–2018: Master's degree in Business Management with a specialization in Process Management **From Bottlenecks to Flow: OKRs, Value Stream Management, and Governance Done Right** In our session, we'll be delving into the advanced flow engineering practices we've implemented at KPMG CH for our Cloud Platform. These methods have truly transformed how we deliver outcomes—faster, safer, and with an even greater level of satisfaction. During the session, we'll take a closer look at how we leverage OKRs to align teams and drive strategic goals, and how Value Stream Management helps us optimize workflow and eliminate bottlenecks. Our robust Governance model will also be discussed, highlighting how we maintain compliance without sacrificing agility. Beyond sharing the technical details, we'll reflect on the lessons learned and valuable insights we've gained throughout our journey. Our goal is to provide actionable takeaways that will benefit the DevOps community and inspire organizations seeking to enhance their delivery pipelines and nurture a culture of continuous improvement. **Vasileios Konofaos** Head of Business Services CH Group Digital Vasileios Konofaos is a seasoned technology leader with more than 20 years of experience driving large‑scale software engineering, cloud infrastructure, and digital transformation initiatives.

(Scroll down for English) WAS IST BREATHWORK UND WIE WIRKT ES Breathwork (tiefe, verbundene Atmung) ist eine kraftvolle Atemtechnik, welche gleichzeitig auf der Bewusstseins-, der emotionalen sowie der körperlichen Ebene wirkt und dadurch schnelle Transformation und Selbstheilung ermöglicht. Körperliche Wirkung: Breathwork kann Dir dabei helfen kann, Stress, innere Anspannung/Verspannungen abzubauen, Schmerzen zu lindern und die Körperwahrnehmung zu verbessern, mehr Energie und Lebendigkeit zu spüren, tiefer zu schlafen und den eigenen Körper mehr zu lieben. Emotionale Wirkung: Die tiefe, verbundene Atmung kann Dir wieder Zugang geben zu unterdrückten Emotionen (z.B. Wut, Angst, Trauer), welche Dich bis anhin blockiert haben. Du lernst, sie wieder zuzulassen, die Angst vor ihnen zu verlieren und den inneren Druck abzubauen. Gleichzeitig ermöglicht Dir Breathwork tiefe Zustände von Freude, Gelassenheit, Verbundenheit und (Selbst-)Liebe. Bewusstseinserweiternde Wirkung: Breathwork kann Dir ermöglichen, alte Glaubenssätze und Muster zu durchbrechen und (wieder) Zugang zu Deiner eigenen Wahrheit, Klarheit und Intuition zu finden. Du kannst Themen in Deinem Leben aus einer neuen Perspektive betrachten und dadurch verblüffende Zusammenhänge sowie Lösungen zu erkennen. Neue Ideen und Visionen können geboren werden. Meine Art des Breathworks basiert auf dem «Biodynamic Breath & Trauma Release»-Ansatz und enthält Elemente des holotropen Atmens («Holotropic Breathwork») von Stanislav Grof sowie des Transformational Breath von Judith Kravitz. ANGABEN ZUM WORKSHOP In den Live-Breathwork-Workshops folgt auf eine Aufwärmübung die ca. 1-stündige Atemsequenz. Diese wird von Berührung und kraftvoller Musik begleitet. Am Schluss folgt zu sanfter Musik eine ca. 15-minütige Entspannungsphase. Danach gibt es eine Pause, um wieder ganz anzukommen und einen Snack zu geniessen, bevor der Workshop mit einem Sharing in der Gruppe endet. Der Workshop wird auf Deutsch und Englisch durchgeführt. Preis: CHF 65 Anmeldung via [https://rebekkathommen.ch/pure-breathwork/](https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Frebekkathommen.ch%2Fpure-breathwork%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExZ3FzOUpDVlFxMTVjeFhTUnNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR4NmVcF4OOcYb--sthB23aqVwI1_DSs_j-ck06mXFKPQFAAxLIE_gxVhxwwSA_aem_3St6FHpD3HCvukjSXMAj_Q&h=AT2BxC-bTIWV53y0vAaMAwRnbnAR_QI2z1TZfXGfII1a4AiwTl91UTIgZlCeesuc6BjBnKauyOIq9wI5pYAO4l-o029U_l2YUKiR5YRQdWS3Odm2BI3q5mFffghqYVhc20RY2inzGAfkdfpUQeEs61HXumsysA&__tn__=q&c%5B0%5D=AT0DcSrjdkxrlcOFcWKWS7PXzkANYTzbluRIwm2mryN3zIMbiZgLnQdpcq0KL0W0SZzZCzNM5rkv7qn4zv1XYbvtf92GFqnhlnN4UInbcPbAsEiLVYMM8ok_GV2ekPGmriPe4EJ62he08E8hdQNpfTkEMhQ7R_IdCis) \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- WHAT IS BREATHWORK AND WHAT ARE ITS EFFECT Breathwork (deep, connected breathing) is a powerful breathing technique that works simultaneously on the consciousness, emotional and physical levels, enabling rapid transformation and self-healing. Physical effect: Breathwork can help you to reduce stress, inner tension/tension, relieve pain and improve body awareness, feel more energy and vitality, improve your sleep and love your own body more. Emotional effect: Deep, connected breathing can give you access to suppressed emotions (e.g. anger, fear, sadness) that have previously blocked you. You learn to allow them back in, to lose your fear of them and to release the inner pressure. At the same time, Breathwork enables you to experience deep states of joy, serenity, connection and (self-)love. Consciousness-expanding effect: Breathwork can enable you to break through old beliefs and patterns and (re)gain access to your own truth, clarity and intuition. You can look at issues in your life from a new perspective and thus recognize amazing connections and solutions. New ideas and visions can be born. My type of breathwork is based on the “Biodynamic Breath & Trauma Release” approach and contains elements of holotropic breathing (“Holotropic Breathwork”) by Stanislav Grof and transformational breathing by Judith Kravitz. INFORMATION ABOUT THE WORKSHOP In the live breathwork workshops, a warm-up exercise is followed by a breathing sequence lasting approximately 1 hour. This is accompanied by touch and powerful music. At the end, there is a 15-minute relaxation phase accompanied by gentle music. Afterwards, there is a break to fully recharge and enjoy a snack before the workshop ends with a group sharing. The workshop is conducted in German and English. Price: CHF 65 Registration via [https://rebekkathommen.ch/pure-breathwork/](https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Frebekkathommen.ch%2Fpure-breathwork%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExZ3FzOUpDVlFxMTVjeFhTUnNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR4vWM2m3EVB2-syzNUbGX7uXg8sOAmLtmZhEoaOd1_DM30dNjaRsZSByvYPIw_aem_huK2NLpCUnUXPgGgAWqSZQ&h=AT2BxC-bTIWV53y0vAaMAwRnbnAR_QI2z1TZfXGfII1a4AiwTl91UTIgZlCeesuc6BjBnKauyOIq9wI5pYAO4l-o029U_l2YUKiR5YRQdWS3Odm2BI3q5mFffghqYVhc20RY2inzGAfkdfpUQeEs61HXumsysA&__tn__=q&c%5B0%5D=AT0DcSrjdkxrlcOFcWKWS7PXzkANYTzbluRIwm2mryN3zIMbiZgLnQdpcq0KL0W0SZzZCzNM5rkv7qn4zv1XYbvtf92GFqnhlnN4UInbcPbAsEiLVYMM8ok_GV2ekPGmriPe4EJ62he08E8hdQNpfTkEMhQ7R_IdCis)

It all sounded straight forward. Then the project started... Join us for an informal evening with fellow Agile practitioners, Scrum Masters, project managers, coaches, and anyone working with change, delivery, or transformation. We’ll meet at a local pizzeria, have some good food, and talk about the things that usually come up once the theory meets reality — challenges, lessons learned, different approaches, and questions we’re still figuring out. Nothing formal, just a chance to exchange ideas, meet people from the community, and have interesting conversations. Because some of the best discussions don’t happen in meeting rooms. They happen in the second floor private room of a pizzeria. 🍕 **The venue:** Da Raffaele brings a slice of Naples to the heart of Zürich's Altstadt. Think 48-hour dough, a 500°C wood-fired oven, and an amazing pizza. Two minutes from Central, close to HB — easy for everyone coming from across the city or the S-Bahn.

**Decoden Workshop - Design your own charms & accessories** The **Decoden Workshop** offers you the opportunity to immerse yourself in a playful and creative world and design **your own Decoden charms and accessories** . Decoden is a decorative technique that uses a creamy glue, colors, and cute charms. This results in unique designs that are both creative and individual. This workshop is perfect for anyone who wants to try something new and achieve great results with minimal effort. In the Decoden Workshop, you can **customize various objects according to your own style** . A selection is available. * **picture frame** * **cases** * **Handheld mirrors & table mirrors** * **jewelry box** * **hair clip** You decide which object you want to decorate and how playful, colorful, or minimalist your design should be. Each piece is unique and reflects your personal creativity. A major advantage of the Decoding Workshop is its **flexible duration** . You'll need approximately **15 to 30 minutes** per item , depending on the level of detail and design. This makes the workshop suitable for both short creative breaks and longer crafting sessions. You can also create several objects in succession if you'd like to try out different designs. The **price starts at CHF 30 per item** . Included in the price are **one paint color and 20 charms** . All materials are provided, so you don't need to bring anything. You can get started right away and focus entirely on your creative work. If you'd like to use additional paint colors or charms, you can easily add them. Beginners **are very welcome** . You don't need any prior knowledge to participate in the Decoden Workshop. I'll explain step by step how the technique works, how to apply the glue correctly, and how to place your charms so that your design looks harmonious. I'll be there to offer tips and support throughout the entire workshop. It's important to note the **drying time** : The glue used needs about **two hours** to dry stably and **overnight** to fully harden. Therefore, you have two options: You can leave your artwork with me and **pick it up later** once it's completely dry. Alternatively, you can carefully take your piece home and let it continue drying there. **For whom?** The decoding workshop is **suitable for everyone** – children, teenagers, and adults. It offers a relaxed atmosphere where you can be creative, unwind, and create something unique. Whether alone, with friends, or as a short creative break – this workshop is fun and guarantees quick success. If you feel like combining charms, trying out colors and designing your own Decoden accessory, the **Decoden Workshop** is just right for you.

Let’s get together at the Crowne Plaza and talk deals, creative finance, problem solving, whatever you want! Hubert Bruce Hosts, COREE members share ideas and resources. Open to the public!

Pay attention! We’re delaying a week for those of you who may be on Spring break and/or celebrating the holiday. Ok, no pancakes, but waffles-a-plenty. Join the local UX and Digital Design community for a casual monthly breakfast. Look for us upstairs!

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online Join Zoom Meeting [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1) Meeting ID: 878 3656 4953 Passcode: 760812 One tap mobile +19292056099,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (New York) +13017158592,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (Washington DC) The formal presentation will start at noon

(Note: RSVPing here on Meetup does NOT reserve your seat. To do that, you'll need to register at our website, **[HERE](https://www.coreerocks.com/Events.aspx?ID=IN-PERSON-in-Columbus-Creative-Deal-Autopsies-Wholesaling-101-14-4-7-2026)**.) The market changed—and most investors are still operating like it didn't. Deals that used to work don't. Buyers want different things. And a lot of what's being taught right now is outdated or just wrong. And, since 2011, it's been our job to make sure that our members are armed with the most up-to-date, real-world strategies for building wealth in Central Ohio real estate… …so our mission with this meeting (and every meeting) is to give you the no-hype, warts-and-all info you need to succeed. First, Wholesaling 101—a clear, real-world look at how wholesaling actually works today, what to pay, and how to stay out of trouble. Then, Creative Deal Autopsies—real investors breaking down real deals with real numbers, real conversations, and real outcomes.

We’re still working to get more people into these Meetups, but our goal is to give PlayYourCourt members a few social tennis outings each week in addition to your practice sessions and Challenge League matches. These Meetups are co-ed, super laid back, and all skill levels are welcome. Post your skill level and a suggested court in the comments section so we can round up as many players as we can for some tennis fun! Also, if you’re looking to meet new practice partners or play some matches and you aren’t already in the PlayYourCourt Community, you can go here to see what we’re all about and sign up: https://www.playyourcourt.com/tennis-community/columbus-oh/meetup/ If you love tennis, we’d love to have you! Be sure and watch the quick video that explains how everything works. Happy hitting! - Scott

The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again. We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all. Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.
