**6:45pm - Introductions**

**7:00pm - The Talks**

**Parenting Lessons for Effective Management** \- Simon Copsey

Parenthood often arrives with little time to prepare. Our idea of 'good' parenting usually involves emulating others, whilst hoping we don't do any permanent damage. Stepping into management is remarkably similar: we emulate others, but it never feels quite right. This session aims to offer anyone an effective approach to management, and one that feels right.

Simon Copsey is a delivery and transformation consultant, helping senior leaders unwind complex obstacles in weeks not years, so happier staff can deliver better software to customers sooner.

**DORA Metrics Decoded: The Science of High-Performing Teams** \- Anthony Ekpechue

Most teams fail to optimize their SDLC because they ignore the four key metrics that drive speed and stability: Deployment Frequency, Lead Time, Change Failure Rate, and MTTR. This talk will reveal how to leverage DORA metrics for measurable SDLC improvements and deliver better software, faster.

Anthony is a DevOps and Zero Trust Security expert, helping organizations modernize legacy systems and adopt secure, cloud-native architectures. He specializes in embedding Zero Trust principles using tools like HashiCorp Sentinel, Kyverno, and OPA, and drives DevOps performance with DORA metrics.

**Kubernetes: Debugging Essentials** \- Nandhana Pramod

Kubernetes is the backbone of modern cloud-native applications, but even the best clusters can run into trouble. In this session, join us to talk about the art of debugging Kubernetes. Whether you’re new to Kubernetes or a seasoned DevOps pro, this talk will equip you with actionable insights and hands-on tips to tackle cluster challenges with confidence.

Nandhana Pramod is a DevOps and Cloud Engineer, experienced in architecting resilient AWS and Azure environments, optimizing CI/CD pipelines, and leading cloud transformations for global enterprises. She specializes in container orchestration, infrastructure as code, and cloud security, and is passionate about sharing knowledge and empowering teams to deliver robust, scalable solutions.
