Melbourne Fast Track to Your Soulmate

Sat, Oct 24, 8:30 PM

From Level Up Esports Training and Socials

We are hosting a casual speed dating event tailored specifically for the Level Up Esports Training and Socials community. If you have been looking to meet someone who actually understands your gaming hobby or just want to step away from the screen to meet new people in person, this is the perfect chance to do it in a relaxed, low-pressure environment. We will be running a series of quick rotations to ensure everyone gets a chance to chat, share a laugh, and see if there is a spark. This evening is designed to be friendly and straightforward, so do not worry if you have never done speed dating before. It is essentially just a series of short conversations with like-minded people from our own community. We will handle the logistics and the structure, so all you need to do is show up ready to talk. It is a great way to move beyond the digital space and make some real-world connections. We would love to see a good turnout for this, so if you are interested in joining us, please head over to the event page and click the RSVP button when you have a moment. It helps us get the numbers right for the rotations and ensures we can organize the space effectively. Hope to see you there.

Product Smells: Clues That Your Product System Isn't Working as It Should

Tue, Oct 13, 6:30 AM

From ProductTank Melbourne

4.6

After a 2 year hiatus ProductTank Melbourne is back!! Join us in person at the TeamForm offices in the CBD for the latest in practical insights, great discussions and interesting people. **Product Smells: Clues That Your Product System Isn't Working as It Should** Perfectly reasonable habits we encounter in our day-to-day product work can be clues that something deeper is wrong in the system around you. Are your colleagues a little too concerned with what the director thinks? Have your engineers stopped arguing with you? Is your Q2 plan all locked up nice and neat? This talk looks at those product smells: what they reveal, their root cause, and what you can do when you spot them. **Speaker: Jack Rust** Jack Rust is a Senior Product Manager at SEEK. Before moving into product, he worked as a software engineer — and before that, at a deli. He's interested in products that help people get their jobs done, the systems that help product managers build them, and why some systems make that work so hard. Jack is uncomfortable networking, so he speaks at meetups and conferences in the hope that the networking will happen to him instead. **When & Where** 5:30pm doors open, 6pm start TeamForm — Level 6, 278 Collins St (entrance next to Flight Centre, near Flinders Street Station) **On the night** 5:30 pm - Doors open with pizza provided by our hosts TeamForm 6:00 – 7:00pm: talk + discussion 7:00 – 8:00pm: networking, Come along, bring a friend and/or colleague, and come ready with a product smell of your own — you might just get it workshopped live.

Lead With Impact Through Powerful Facilitation

Thu, Oct 22, 7:00 AM

From Product Anonymous Meetup - Melbourne

4.7

Join us for a hands-on workshop where you'll learn how to design and run workshops that actually move teams forward. Going beyond the standard retro and sticky notes, & drawing on real examples from hundreds of workshops plus grounded in coaching and facilitation practice, we'll cover everything from setting the right goals, to a practical toolkit to design your next workshop with intent, to tips for the messy real-world stuff like handling conflict, getting people to engage, and keeping energy up when things go sideways. You'll leave with practical techniques you can use straight away, tools to help teams go from discussion to real decisions, and more confidence being the person running the room. **Our speaker** [Aseel Hamarneh](https://www.linkedin.com/in/aseelhamarneh/) is a Product lead with over 15 years’ experience in tech, working multiple organisations and countries. Over that time, she has seen a consistent pattern: teams collaborate constantly and run regular workshops and retros, yet often leave potential on the table because facilitation is treated as a format rather than a leadership skill. She has designed and led organisation-wide workshops, large-scale training programs, and numerous strategy and ideation sessions. Her focus is not on running meetings, but on using facilitation to drive alignment, generate stronger ideas, and support meaningful decisions during change and complexity. Drawing on formal facilitation training and executive coaching accreditation, Aseel approaches facilitation as a capability that shapes how teams think and collaborate. Across diverse organisational contexts, she has seen the same principle hold: strong facilitation unlocks the full potential of collective thinking. **Our hosts**: [NV AI Learning Centre](https://www.naturalvelocity.ai/) Directions Natural Velocity Head Office is located on Level One, 9 Star Cres Docklands (inside The District Docklands) next to Melbourne College of Hair and Beauty.

AI Workflows for Lean Product Teams

Wed, Oct 21, 6:30 AM

From LTP Events Melbourne

4.8

Lean product teams don't have the luxury of dedicated AI specialists or months to experiment. They need practical ways to move faster without adding headcount or complexity. Hosted by Leading the Product and generously supported by Stone & Chalk at their Melbourne CBD headquarters, this evening brings together speakers for a candid panel discussion. Speakers: * [Emily Mason](https://www.linkedin.com/in/emilymason2/): VP of Product @ The Martec * [Josh Centner](https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshcentner/): Head of Product - Platform, Reliability, DX and Quality @ Netwealth * [Vijayan Seenisamy](https://www.linkedin.com/in/vijayan-seenisamy/): Author of The Pilot Trap, Enterprise AI Delivery * [Mark Oliver](https://www.linkedin.com/in/markdavidoliver/): General Manager of Professional Services @ Brainmates This session brings together a panel of product leaders and practitioners who've been in the trenches, integrating AI into their day-to-day workflows. Expect candid discussion on topics like: * Where AI genuinely accelerates discovery, delivery, and decision-making, and where it doesn't * Tools and workflows lean teams are using to punch above their weight * The organisational and cultural shifts needed to make AI adoption stick * Common pitfalls, false starts, and lessons learned the hard way * How to balance speed with quality when your team is small Whether you're just starting to experiment with AI in your product process or looking to sharpen an existing workflow, you'll leave with practical insights you can apply immediately, straight from teams who've done the work. Following the panel discussion, we'll open things up for audience Q&A before continuing the conversation over drinks and networking with Melbourne's Product community. **Evening timeline** 5.30pm – 6.15pm: Arrive, grab a drink, and connect 6.15pm – 7pm: Panel discussion and audience Q&A 7pm – 7.30pm: Networking, conversation, and connection A huge shoutout to [Stone & Chalk](https://www.stoneandchalk.com.au/ "https://www.stoneandchalk.com.au/") for their gracious hosting, venue and collaboration with Leading the Product.

📚 #InPursuit – A Book Club for Builders, Thinkers, and Doers

Fri, Oct 23, 11:30 PM

From The Entrepreneur Club (Melbourne)

4.5

📚 #InPursuit is a book club for entrepreneurs, creatives, and curious minds who know personal growth fuels business growth. **See a lot of RSPVPs and wonder how it works? We'll break up into groups of 6-8 to share our insights, then swap groups after 30-45min so you can maximise learning from everybody!** *Note: this even is not organised by or affiliated with The State Library of Victoria* **That's what #InPursuit is all about** It’s not a traditional book club, it’s a space for people who are actively designing a better life through the pursuit of business, creativity, and personal growth. This event is for anyone #InPursuit of better business, life and relationships. Instead of reading the same book, we each come prepared to share one powerful insight from something we’ve read in the past 3-months. Anything non-fiction that’s moved us forward. Whether it’s a mindset shift, a productivity system, a new philosophy, or just a truth that punched us in the gut. This is a place to unpack it together and hear what others are learning too. We’re not just here to *read*. We’re here to *integrate*. Because when we grow, our business and our lives grow too. **🔍 Why Join? You'll leave with:** * 5–10 fresh insights from books you may never have picked up * Deeper awareness of how others think, lead, and evolve * New connections with people walking a similar path toward purpose, results, and impact This isn’t a lecture. It’s a room full of people building themselves while they build the thing. **📖 How It Works** First time? No pressure to share, just come curious. We'll break up into groups of 6-8 and share our insights, then swap groups so you can maximise the learning! Returning? Bring one idea you’ve read about in the last 3-months and be ready to speak on: 1. What did you learn? 2. How did it shift your perspective about the world or yourself? 3. How has it changed the way you show up or behave? We keep it structured, but flexible. After sharing, we open up to Q&A, personal stories, challenges, and deep dives. Some of the best insights come from the conversations *after* the share. **🧠 Who This Is For** * Entrepreneurs or side-hustlers finding their footing * Business owners, and doers building toward better * Curious minds who love ideas but care more about action * People tired of shallow conversations and hungry for growth If you’re working on something—or becoming someone—this space is for you. It’s a practice ground for people who want to grow forward. We’re all #InPursuit of mastery, momentum, and the kind of success that starts from within. **Map on how to get there** We're in the Create Quarter on the ground level (back right of the Quad as you enter from Swanson St). We'll likely be on a long table together. https://www.slv.vic.gov.au/sites/default/files/SLV-EnglishMap_Jan25.pdf

Presenting - 'Manager v Leader', Kennedy, Luther King...

Thu, Oct 15, 7:15 AM

From SmashSpeak- Real World Presenting & Leadership

4.7

Smashing! Try something new Thursday Interactive reality workshops- Tonight get involved and have some fun. Tonight we study and learn unique stage styles and techniques of world-class leaders. Be inspired by the styles & secrets of Barack Obama, J.F Kennedy and Martin Luther King etc Learn how to present as the Leader, rather than a manager Serious about improving your leadership - **Why mess, come to the best** Why is Smashing different to other speaking clubs? Just two member's thoughts, "The fun/laughs factor is definitely a point of difference. We keep it moving with high standards so it’s a nice balance. Too strict makes it tense and boring, too loose and we can lose the energy/commercial feel. SmashSpeak's vibe's in the sweet spot." "At other clubs I used to listen to long speeches and lectures, here we get so many chances to talk every meeting, that we have to improve" **Free parking** close: O'Connell and Cobden streets **IMPORTANT: Be on time, as doors close when the show starts** “Proudly Australian" – Free-flowing teamwork, greater good focus, sharing the stage, etc Multicultural Hub, 506 Elizabeth St (Opposite Queen Vic Market) Level 1, RED Room (End of corridor) More to come..

Capability ≠ Capacity: What I wish I’d known about neurodivergence leading tech

Thu, Oct 22, 6:30 AM

From Tech Leading Ladies

4.8

Capability ≠ Capacity: What I wish I’d known about my neurodivergent brain when I was leading in tech I was diagnosed ADHD and autistic at 41, following severe burnout at the peak of my career in technology leadership, transformation and digital delivery. I was clearly capable of doing complex work. What I didn’t understand was why things that seemed like they should be easy could sometimes require an enormous amount of effort. In this talk, I’ll explore some of the less visible things that use our capacity at work — and how this helps us to find the right strategies to work sustainably as a neurodivergent leader. **Agenda (time in Melbourne/AEST)** * 5:30pm Networking * 6:00pm Welcome * 6:05pm Main Presentation * 6:35pm Q&A * 7:00pm Networking * 7:30pm Close **This will be a HYBRID event:** **Zoom link -** will be posted 1hr before event starts. **Our Speaker** **Ani Møller** Ani Møller is a neurodivergent leadership coach and ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC) who works exclusively with neurodivergent leaders. Before becoming a coach, Ani worked in technology, transformation and digital delivery, including as an Executive Director leading large teams and multi-million-dollar programs. They were diagnosed ADHD and autistic at 41 following severe burnout, and subsequently trained as an ADHD coach. Their work now brings together lived experience, coaching and decades of leadership and transformation experience to help neurodivergent leaders understand how they work and build more sustainable ways of working and leading.
