On Thursday 4 June, the family-run boho-chic "Dress Me Up" boutique in Luxembourg city center is welcoming our group for an exclusive shopping event! The clothes at Dress Me Up are truly unique -- no, really, almost every article of clothing in there is literally one-of-a-kind! All of their clothes are ecologically sustainable, cruelty-free, and fairly priced for the great quality. Here is their website so you can get a feel for their general styles: https://www.dressmeup.lu/ The owners have graciously offered our group 10% off everything in their store, along with homemade Spanish tapas, crémant, and soft drinks. We will be in the shop after-hours, so nobody will interrupt us as we get to know each other over drinks and nibbles, and help each other pick out fun new pieces for our wardrobe :) The shop is located in "Galerie Beaumont", just across from Sephora on Grand Rue. Enter past the Paris 8 and keep left in the "arcade" until you get there. The event starts at 18:30 and we should be there for about two hours, though we aren't in any rush. If you need to arrive a little later, no worries! See you there :)

*Full Plate: A Wellbeing Brunch for Dads* 5 June & 21 June 2026 | 10:30–12:30 Fatherhood is full — full of joy, full of change, and sometimes full of things we don't quite know how to say out loud.

No advice-giving, no pressure — just good food, honest chat, and a genuinely supportive space.

**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose** Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap. Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn: * Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge * How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change * Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction * How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work. **About Our Speaker** [Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.

## 🤝 Host Information A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus 💡 About the Workshop AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge. This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow. Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required. 🛠️ What to Bring Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go.
