Better Decisions, Faster: Predicting Human & Agent Behaviors Before Release
Wed, May 20, 1:00 AM**Speed is up. Confidence in product decisions isn't.** Most teams commit time and resources before they know what will actually work, running the same loop of **ship, wait, learn, repeat**. That loop is breaking as build cycles collapse and live experimentation gets harder to run reliably. Why? A/B testing requires live traffic. User research takes weeks. Analytics tells you what happened, not why. By the time you know, you've already shipped the next thing. The **traditional model assumes** you have **time to be wrong**. Modern product cycles don't. This session reframes the core problem: a product decision is a commitment of time and resources made under uncertainty. The question is not how to move faster. It is how to **be right more often** before you commit. **Tom Charman** will show what changes when you move behavioral insight before release. Instead of waiting for post-launch signal, you can simulate how real users move through your product, step by step, and see exactly where they hesitate, misinterpret, or drop off. We'll walk through a concrete onboarding scenario and compare the traditional ship-and-measure approach against **pre-launch behavioral simulation** side by side. You'll leave with a lightweight **pre-launch simulation framework** you can use immediately: define a user, define a task, walk through their behavior step by step. It won't replace your research or analytics stack, but it will give you directional signal before you ship, when changing course is still cheap. The future of product development is not just building faster. It's being right more often. **Key Takeaways:** * **Why ship → learn is breaking** in modern product development * **How to identify friction and drop-off points** before a single user sees the product * **A new mental model for experimentation** that doesn't rely on live traffic **Special Thanks to our Generous Sponsor** **Blok**: Predict how users and agents behave inside your product before you ship. Replace guesswork with behavioral simulation. *Attendance will be first-come, first-served. We will close doors once we reach capacity; arrive early to secure a spot.*
The Original Circling® Approach and Authentic Relating - IN BERKELEY!
Wed, May 20, 2:00 AMCome Join - Our new IN-PERSON Event in Berkeley! **NOTE: This page is for information only.** **Please Ignore the Meetup "Not Open" Button.** **To REGISTER, go here...** [https://buytickets.at/thecirclinginsitute](https://buytickets.at/thecirclinginsitute) Authentic Relating and the “Original Circling® Approach” Be seen, heard, "gotten" & accepted and learn to do the same Do you crave: -More fulfilling relationships? -Conscious & loving community? -To feel more alive? Come play, experience & integrate practical skills to: -Create deep, intimate connections -Transform ordinary surface conversations into juicy, heart opening, enlightening explorations for personal insights & healing -Become more present & comfortable in your own skin -Uncover our “relational blind spots” where we push away the depth of connection & intimacy that’s possible -Practice listening to the essence of someone’s soul -“Get someone’s world” like a mind reader -Tap into the power of your vulnerability that has you more lovable -Be understood, appreciated & celebrated for the essence of who you are -Create more love, connection & community Join us for an evening of authentic relating, practicing profoundly unique skills like getting someone's world (deep empathy), sharing impact (honesty & vulnerability), and speaking the moment (courage, insight, shared reality, making connection more important than content). This work has been powerful and deeply nourishing for me and I'd love to share it with you. I’ve never seen a practice more adept at melting the distance between two hearts. \~ Jon Cotton What does a Circle look like in terms of format, with the Original Circling Approach? A group of 4-10 people sit in a circle & put their attention primarily on one person, and, with the help of a facilitator, notice what it's like being with this person moment by moment, share impact & observations, and co-explore what that person’s experience and world is like, essentially getting into deep relationship with what is most true & alive for that person. A typical evening includes introductions, an exercise to practice authentic relating & 2 rounds of circling - each approximately 30 minutes in length. The experience of “being seen” for who we authentically are is one of the most rewarding experiences we can have as human beings, and the Original Circling Approach teaches us how to see & celebrate each person for the unique flavor they bring to the world. We don’t give advice or try to fix anyone. Rather, we welcome and stay with “what is”, so we can relax into the truth of our experience, feel supported & know we are not alone. “Circling practice is to get in a deep relationship with what is.” * Guy Sengstock, Founder of The Original Circling Approach For deeper understanding, see 6 Things the Circling Practice Does Really Well… http://www.circlinginstitute.com/what-is-original-circling-approach/ **REGISTRATION:** Advanced registration and $30 payment required (Our last event sold out a week ahead of time).

No "let’s grab coffee sometime" texts. No scheduling headaches. Just a great meal with a new crew, right then and there. Maybe they become your new weekend hiking squad, or maybe it’s just a really good Thursday night. Either way, you're not doing it alone. **Agenda** **6:30 PM - Check-In** Meet us at Empowerment Park.
