Agile Leadership

Ez nem előadás, nem panelbeszélgetés és nem agilis best practice-ekről szól. Ez egy kötetlen este, ahol **minden résztvevő hoz egy elcseszett helyzetet – és egy tanulást belőle**. Nincs cégnév, nincs hibáztatás, nincs okoskodás. Csak őszinte történetek, közös nevetés és az a megnyugtató felismerés, hogy nem vagyunk egyedül ezekkel a dilemmákkal. És sör. *Helyszín:* A Grund - Bazsesz terem (az emeleten a csocsó asztal után jobbra) *Időtartam:* 17:30-tól kifulladásig

Join us for an evening dedicated to the evolving landscape of software engineering. As our tools become more powerful, our focus shifts from simply writing syntax to building architecture and stronger teams. We’ll explore two distinct sides of this evolution: the human side, where **peer and mob programming** foster trust and shared ownership, and the technical side, where **AI agents** allow us to "print code" and one-shot complex features. Whether you are looking to improve "team quality" or manage the "review bottleneck" of AI-driven development, this meetup offers practical insights for every engineer. This English-language event will be held at the **Formlabs Budapest office**, where we'll provide snacks and drinks to fuel conversations. Arrival is from 17:30, Announcements and agenda at 17:55, first presentations will start at 18:00. \-\-\- **Peer Programming to increase "Team Quality"** **with [Nico Riedmann](https://www.linkedin.com/in/nico-riedmann/)** Most engineers are familiar with pair programming. Your team may already encourage it to foster learning or as an alternative to ensuring code quality via pull-request reviews. This talk will show you the impact that collaboratively creating code has on "team quality" rather than just "code quality" - creating opportunities to build trust, increase shared ownership, and define and better understand a shared vision. And if you weren’t convinced before, we’ll end with a few practical tips on getting started with pair and mob-programming. **One-Shotting Features: The Reality of Agentic Workflows** **With [János Molnár](https://www.linkedin.com/in/j%C3%A1nos-moln%C3%A1r-9b582896/)** This talk explores our journey from using AI as a glorified auto-complete to one-shotting complex features. I’ll discuss our team’s evolution from using AI for basic code generation to adopting agentic workflows that shift our focus toward planning and architecture. We’ll explore the benefits of this high-level approach alongside the "review bottleneck" that occurs when AI velocity outpaces human auditing, and how we adapted our processes while releasing and building our Greenhouse project. \-\-\- Come learn and connect with other tech enthusiasts. See you there! You can also find the recordings of previous events on the [@DevBPMeetup YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@DevBPMeetup).

Our membership is 313,000 strong. Members improve their speaking and leadership skills by attending one of the 14,650 clubs in 126 countries that make up our global network of meeting locations. The world needs leaders. Leaders head families, coach teams, run businesses, and mentor others. These leaders must not only accomplish but must also communicate. By regularly giving speeches, gaining feedback, leading teams, and guiding others to achieve their goals in a supportive atmosphere, leaders emerge from the Toastmasters program. Every Toastmaster's journey begins with a single speech. During their journey, they learn to tell their stories. They listen and answer. They plan and lead. They give feedback—and accept it. Through our community of learners, they find their path to leadership.

Digital products are evolving from “screens” to intelligent partners—services that notice context, anticipate intent, and adapt in real time. That shift is exciting… and risky. How do we design experiences that feel helpful without becoming creepy, confusing, or out of control? Join us at Product Design Talks by Ergomania for: Beyond UX: How Digital Products Become Intelligent Partners **📍 Rudas Bistro, 1013 Budapest, Döbrentei tér 9.** **📅 18 February 2026 \| 🕔 17:00** ⏱ Practical, inspiring knowledge in 2 hours We’ll unpack **Sentient Design** (popularised by Josh Clark): moving beyond rigid self-service flows toward **products** that **respond** **dynamically** to **real-life situations. Think: your banking app surfaces the right action the moment you land in Tokyo** \- currency exchange\, nearby ATMs\, relevant insights\, without you hunting for them\. Programme: **17:00 Welcome reception** **17:20 Talk: When Banking Apps Stop Being Static and Start Noticing Context — [Adam Dragus](https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamdragus/)** **17:45 Panel: [Dr Andras Rung - UX Strategist](https://www.linkedin.com/in/drandrasrung/), [Adam Gyökhegyi](https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamgy/), [Adam Dragus](https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamdragus/), [Gábor Lukács](https://www.linkedin.com/in/gbr-lukacs/)** **18:45 Networking** In the panel we’ll compare approaches teams use today, **discuss when anticipation helps vs. hurts, and how to balance adaptability with clarity**, **trust**, and **user** **control**, especially in regulated products.

**We are back. And by popular demand: We are finally doing this on a Friday!** For Event #4, we’re flipping the script. Forget the best practices. This time, we're focusing on **worst practices.** We’ll dissect real business failures through three lenses: legal, psychological, and marketing. Decisions that looked smart on paper, passed approval, and still detonated. We’ll revisit familiar disasters like **Theranos** and **Fyre Festival**, then go deeper into lesser-known, more uncomfortable cases and even scandals including global brand implosions and local examples like **Shrooly**. **This isn’t about laughing at failure.** It’s about understanding how smart teams convince themselves bad ideas are good ones, and learning how to spot the moment everything starts going wrong. **The Agenda & What You'll Learn** Three angles, one goal: Make sure you don't end up on this list next year. * **17:45:** Arrive, grab a drink (it's Friday!), and connect. * **18:00 – 18:15: How NOT to run your business (legal angle).** We look at the structural red flags that sink ships. From the valuation hallucinations of **WeWork** to the **Honey scam** and local hardware flops like **Shrooly**. We’ll cover how to mismanage cash, ignore the law, and implode your company from the inside out. * **18:15 – 18:30: How NOT to gain customers (marketing angle).** “There’s no such thing as bad publicity” is how this always starts. Then the backlash hits. We’ll break down campaigns that went viral for all the wrong reasons - from **Pepsi and Bumble** to **Bud Light and Apple** \- unpacking how rebrands\, stunts\, and culture\-driven ads cross the line from attention to alienation\, and how brands lose their audience because of some 'viral' ideas\. * **18:30 – 18:35:** **🎁** A super secret surprise * **18:35 – 18:50: How NOT to handle customers (psychological angle).** Users don’t leave when something breaks, instead they leave when something feels off. We’ll explore dark UX patterns, manipulative design, and behavioral shortcuts that quietly cross ethical lines from **friend.com** to platforms that optimized engagement until users turned hostile. This is how loyal users become your loudest critics. * **18:50 – 19:00:** A very special announcement * **19:00 – 20:00:** Genuine networking & conversations with quality food and drinks. * **20:00 onwards:** We are heading to a nearby bar. Since **nobody** has work tomorrow, we expect the conversation to go late. **Who Is This For?** This is for freelancers, digital nomads, and founders in Budapest who want to disaster-proof their work. Join a community of curious, open-minded people for an honest conversation. No corporate fluff, just genuine connections. If you want actionable takeaways on what *not* to do, this is for you. **Location** We'll be hosting at the fantastic **KLUSTER Coworking** space. **The Legal Bit** Our imaginary lawyers (who are currently panicking about this event topic) wanted us to mention that we'll be taking some photos. By attending, you consent to this. Thanks for reading, see you on **the 20th**! Bence & Marguerite & Nándi

**Join the BreadBreakers community for an evening of connection and comradery over the timeless art of boardgaming!** BreadBreakers is a community where people of all different belief systems and backgrounds create community and have meaningful conversation. Usually we do that over the dinner table, but sometimes you've got to change it up a bit! Here's what to expect: * A kind, welcoming atmosphere and community * Several familiar, and several novel boardgames. * Snacks :) * We'll be gathering in Meeting Room 1 at the Reston Regional Library. * Feel free to bring a board game to share if you'd like! **I've never attended a BreadBreakers event before - what is BreadBreakers?** BreadBreakers is a community where neighbors from all different beliefs and backgrounds can **hear, be heard, and know one another.** Most frequently, we do this through the ancient practice of breaking bread around a common dining table. But we're more than just a discussion group - we're a movement to heal our world's broken discourse and forge togetherness in a time of isolation and loneliness. **Through the sacred act of just "being" together, we're working to rebuild the town square, one table (or game night) at a time.** BreadBreakers is a religiously inclusive by Restoration United Methodist Church in Reston, VA. All faiths, beliefs, and stripes are welcomed, and our leadership and community include people who attend Restoration and people who don't.

This training is designed for real estate agents who want to learn how to play the Agent Investor game. The goal of this training is to help you flip your income into ownership. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ **Investors move fast. Most agents don’t.** If you can’t evaluate a deal quickly and confidently, you lose credibility—and the opportunity disappears. Deal or Disaster teaches a simple, repeatable framework to determine in minutes whether a deal prints money or burns it. In this session, you’ll learn a 5-minute investment evaluation system that works across flips, rentals, BRRRRs, wholetails, and creative deals. The goal isn’t perfection—it’s speed, clarity, and credibility. We’ll break down: * How to identify the investor’s true goal before running numbers * A fast, reliable method to estimate ARV with confidence * How to calculate the real all-in acquisition cost * Simple heuristics to ballpark rehab and improvement costs * The key metrics that reveal whether a deal works—or should be killed You’ll also learn the most common red flags that signal bad deals, thin margins, and hidden risk, so you know when to pause or walk away. When you can analyze deals in minutes, you earn authority, build trust, and become indispensable to investors. Speed creates opportunity—and opportunity creates repeat business. If you want to move from real estate generalist to trusted investment strategist, this session gives you the framework to do it. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ **Did you miss it?** [Watch all GRID Reston event playback on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOTh5kxLLJI1G3VH6Pqhlhu0uTA8yrdpi) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ **Join the GRID Facebook Community** [Join the online GRID community here](https://www.facebook.com/groups/gridinvestor) to post deals, ask questions, and connect with other investors across the globe.

**In a time of division and isolation, come be part of the community that's rebuilding the town square, one table at a time.** In BreadBreakers, we use the common space of the dining table to have conversations where neighbors can **hear, be heard, and know one another.** If you're hungry for good discourse and deeper community, join us for a Community Dinner in Reston and help blaze the trail to a healthier, more connected society and democracy. Here’s how it works: For just two hours, multiple tables of people set aside the need to "win" and instead focus on sharing, listening, and connecting. Guided by experienced table hosts, we'll tell our stories, try to understand each other, and practice being in community with those with different views or backgrounds. **At this dinner, participants will get to choose between three different topics, including some current events.** Topics range from the political, to the spiritual, to the philosophical, to the off-the-wall - but no matter which table you choose to sit at, you can be sure it'll be like no dinner conversation you've had before! You can also **suggest a topic** by emailing us at BreadBreakersInfo@gmail.com. Food will be provided for free. For those who wish to provide a donation to help fund BreadBreakers, you can [give here](https://pushpay.com/g/restorationrestonumc?fnd=pO6G-N7oO7FH7Mp1u-x6mA&fndv=Lock&r=No&lang=en&src=pcgl) or at the event. We'll have vegetarian and gluten-free options available. If you have any additional dietary restrictions (Celiac Disease, vegan, etc.) please let us know at BreadBreakersInfo@gmail.com so that we can implement the appropriate food handling procedures. **Join us, invite a friend, and be a part of the movement to mend our fractured society and normalize a better way of talking with one another.** BreadBreakers, an initiative by [Restoration United Methodist Church](https://restorationreston.org/breadbreakers) in Reston, VA, is a religiously inclusive community. All faiths and all stripes are welcomed. Our leadership, volunteer team, and community include people who attend Restoration and people who don't.
