She specialises in designing human-centred AI systems that balance trust, delight, and user agency. Alongside her industry work, Micaela is the founder of The AI UX School, where she teaches designers how to confidently design, prototype, and think critically about AI products. Her work sits at the intersection of UX, AI, growth ethics, and product strategy. **————————** **About the Talk:** **————————** **Building Trust and Encouraging Critical Thinking: Designing AI Experiences That Do Both** In this talk, Micaela explores how teams can intentionally build AI experiences that create trust without encouraging blind reliance. Through real product examples and practical UX patterns, she shows how interaction design, language, feedback loops, and system transparency can help users stay engaged, informed, and thoughtful when working with AI. ***The session reframes trust not as “users believing the system,” but as users feeling supported, capable, and in control.*** **———————** **SPEAKER 2** **———————** **Erin Casali** Erin is a VP/Director of both product and design, with over 10 years of experience in each. She has a hybrid approach with design, product, and engineering in her background, and a skillset including psychology and change management. Her unique blend of skills, including psychology and change management, enables her to foster collaboration and break down silos. Driven by a passion for improving lives through her work, she empowers teams to reach their full potential. She advocates for purpose, transparency, and diversity, fostering a culture of trust and agency. **————————** **About the Talk:** **————————** **Engaging with genAI Beyond the Hype** The world of genAI is split between doomers and boomers (the other kind), where it can be really hard to distinguish between what’s useful and what’s not. According to one side, everything is amazing and our jobs are going to disappear soon. According to the other, genAI is evil and needs to be resisted at all costs. ***This talk will provide pragmatic tools to navigate the world of hype between the two sides, and define how to gain valuable skills.*** **———————** **SPEAKER 3** **———————** **Chris Compston** Chris is a London-based product coach who has led product operations for brands like Bumble, Farfetch and Reward Gateway. He specialises in designing Product Operating Models that drive organisation toward impact. A prolific speaker and writer, Chris focuses on how intentional, repeatable practices help modern product teams thrive. **————————** **About the Talk:** **————————** **How to Woo** How do you steer the ship when you aren't the captain? In product development, your success rarely depends on your ability to give orders. Instead, it relies on your ability to influence people that you have no direct power over. We often call this stakeholder management, but in reality, it is the art of the "Woo". An approachable, human way of winning people over to your side. In this talk, we will explore why the hard sell often leads to friction and how you can shift from pushing requirements to pulling people toward a shared vision. Drawing on real-world successes and failures from Bumble, Farfetch, and Reward Gateway, we’ll look at how to navigate conflicting interests and complex personalities. ***You will learn a practical approach to understanding hidden motivations, shaping the narrative around your ideas, and ultimately empowering others to feel they are making the right choice for themselves. The goal isn't just to get a yes. It is to build a partnership where everyone feels they’ve won.*** **—————————————** **Support from:** **—————————————** We are kindly hosted by our friends at Accurx. **——————————** **About your hosts:** **——————————** Product Unleashed is brought to you by your hosts **[John Griffin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-griffin-designer/)** and **[Dominic Port](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dominic-port/)**. The duo has worked on the design of products of all shapes and sizes and bring their energy and enthusiasm to this unique meet-up, packed with great guests and knowledge - for anyone interested in levelling up their game in the world of products.

🏎️ **If you’re not automating yet… you probably are.** Be honest: how much of your job are you already secretly automating, and how much of it is just automation in disguise? In this session, **[Ellis Pratt](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ellispratt/)**, director of **[Cherryleaf](https://www.cherryleaf.com/)**, will take a clear, no-hype look at automation in technical communication. He’ll rewind to where things stood just over a year ago, then discuss what’s changed since. We’ll explore how automation shows up across the technical writing lifecycle, and common pitfalls that come with it. Finally, we’ll look ahead. What does increasing automation really mean for our careers as technical writers and documentarians? Join us for an honest, practical conversation about what to automate, what not to, and how to stay relevant as the tools keep changing. **📣 This event is aimed at technical writers and those working in closely related roles. The discussion will focus on automation and AI specifically in the context of technical documentation and technical content workflows.** **When:** Thursday 19 February, from 6.30pm **Where:** The Yellow Room @ Remark! 18 Leather Lane, EC1N 7SU **What:** 18.30 - 19.00 Arrival 19.00 - 19.45 Presentation 19.45 - 20.00 Short break 20.00 - 20.45 Presentation 20.45 - 21.30 Networking *All times are approximate.* **Photos:** Note that the organizers will take some photos for the WTD group.

# ONLINE Tenses Boot Camp – Week 1: Present Simple (6-Week Intensive for Working Professionals) ## What This Is This is a structured **6-week Tenses Boot Camp** designed for working professionals who use English at work but still feel unsure about their grammar under pressure. Each week focuses on one tense. Week 6 consolidates everything so you can actually use the tenses naturally and confidently. This is not random grammar practice. It’s systematic, practical, and built for real professional communication. *** ## The 6-Week Structure * Week 1 – Present Simple * Week 2 – Present Continuous * Week 3 – Past Simple * Week 4 – Past Continuous * Week 5 – Future (will / going to) * Week 6 – Consolidation: Using All Tenses Together By the end, you’ll understand: * what each tense is actually for * how to stop mixing them up * how to form negatives correctly * how to ask questions naturally * how to use the right tense at the right time. * * Week 1 – Present Simple Most professionals were “taught” the present simple years ago. But many still: * hesitate with third person (he works / she works) * get confused forming negatives (doesn’t / don’t) * struggle to form clean questions * mix present simple and present continuous * sound unnatural when describing their role This session fixes that properly. We will cover: * When we really use the present simple at work * Structure (affirmative / negative / questions) * Common mistakes professionals make * Live speaking practice in work contexts * Error correction and clarification Everyone will speak. Everyone will practise. You’ll also receive structured homework to reinforce the session. *** ## Who This Is For * Working professionals using English at work * People who feel their tenses aren’t “solid” * Professionals who want clarity and structure * People who were taught grammar but never fully mastered it *** ## Who This Is Not For * Students * Hobby learners * Passive listeners * People looking for casual conversation only This is a focused, professional environment. *** ## Practical Details * £10 per session * Small group (maximum 6 participants) * 1 hour (may extend to 1.5 hours if group is full and engaged) * Online via Microsoft Teams Only confirmed and paid participants will receive the Teams link. *** ## Why This Boot Camp Works Many professionals don’t lack vocabulary. They lack clarity. When tenses are unclear: * confidence drops * speech becomes hesitant * mistakes repeat * authority weakens This Boot Camp gives you a clear mental structure so your English feels controlled, not chaotic. If you’ve been using English for years but still feel unsure about your tenses, this is exactly what this course is designed to fix. Dates for the first 3 weeks: Saturday 20th March 9am Saturday 7th March 9am Saturday 14th March 9am What happens if I'm unavailable for a session?
