The Future of Leadership: Workflow-Embedded Skills Development
**About this event:**
Join us on 26 March in Vienna for an evening where we'll explore how leaders actually develop capability - not in classrooms, but inside work itself.
**Agenda:**
**16:00 – Arrive, connect over drinks and nibbles**
**16:30 – The Future of Leadership: Workflow-Embedded Skills Development**
* Why traditional leadership development isn't transferring to practice
* What leaders actually need in 2026 (and it's not just another model)
* What workflow embedded skills development actually looks like - real examples from teams we've worked with
**17:30 – Interactive Workshop: Building the Leadership Skills Your Organisation Needs**
* Learn about ways to build people skils hands-on
* Work through a real leadership challenge with peers
* Leave with practical next steps for your context
**19:30 – Networking**
* Wine, food (gluten-free and vegan options available)
* Connect with people facing similar challenges
**16:00 – Arrive, connect over drinks and nibbles**
**Why this matters**
Leadership development is broken. Organisations invest heavily, leaders attend programmes, certificates get handed out - and then nothing changes.
The problem isn't lack of frameworks. It's the gap between learning and doing.
In the coming years, leadership development must shift from event-based training to workflow-embedded practice.
At Kokoro, we've spent years answering one question: how do you empower leaders to create the conditions for sustained performance, genuine motivation, and teams that thrive?
At this event, we bring leaders, teams, L&D professionals, and organisations who are committed to making that shift. Together, we will develop steps to make it real.
**Who is this for**
You're leading a team, department, or organisation. You're in L&D and see that traditional programmes aren't transferring to practice. You run an SME and need practical ways to develop leaders without the corporate overhead.
You've sent people to leadership programmes and watched them return motivated, and then not being able to transfer the skills in to work. You know the theory-practice gap is real. You want skills development that builds into daily workflows, not outside them.
**Event Details**
📆 Thursday, 26 March 2026

**About Kokoro**
Kokoro was founded in 2018 because we believed the way performance is measured and optimised is broken. We work with leaders and teams to build resilient, high-performing cultures where people can learn, grow, and thrive - even amid complexity and change.
We do this through our team and leadership development software and services like one-on-one coaching, team development, organisational consulting that help leaders turn intention into habit. Our approach draws on evidence from flow theory, motivation science, neurobiology, and real-world practice with teams across various industries and sizes.
Visit [bekokoro.com](https://www.bekokoro.com/) to learn more.
**Join the Kokoro community**
This is our first of 4 gatherings in 2026 - a chance to (re)connect with people making real change happen, and to introduce you to what we're building. If the culture and performance challenges you face resonate, we'd love to work with you.
Looking forward to seeing you on 26 March.

✨Weekly Co-Working Session in Vienna – Get It Done Together (1–5PM)
Looking for consistent rhythm in your work? Been putting something off for too long?
Join us for our Weekly Co-Working Session in the excellent **Jaz in the City** — and let’s get it done, together.
📲 **Want** **to** **connect** with others before/after? Looking for extra support and accountability:
Join our [WhatsApp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/K6LidaoQhe16wZ0Se9pNM6), Keep in touch via [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/nocrastinationclub/)
This is a **reliable**, safe, supportive in-person space to move through procrastination with presence and companionship. Whether you’re working on admin tasks, tax returns, writing, creative/coding projects, or simply clearing up your inbox — bring whatever needs getting done and we’ll focus gently beside you. After a 30' intro and goal setting session, we will go through 3 **Pomodoro** **sessions** of 45' focused work and 15' breaks in between.
🕐 **Time**: 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM
📍 **Location**: Jaz in the City – Ground Floor long table: Windmühlgasse 28, 1060 Vienna
💻 **Bring**: Your laptop(& charger), journal, creative tools, or anything you’ve been procrastinating on
🌿 **Hosted by**: NoCrastination. See you across from the ground floor bar ✨ you will see us sitting at the long table with our laptops
☕ Please do order something from the bar, so as to keep us in their good graces! Espresso: €3.5, Americano: €4.5, Latte: €5.5.
Donations to support the community are voluntary and welcome.
🌱 **What to Expect**
* **Welcoming space**: we meet in the creative, cozy lobby of the **Jaz in the City**
* **Social start**: intro from **1:00 to 1:30 PM**, we mingle, get to know each other and share goals; our first focus session begins at **1:30 PM.** However, **drop in anytime** if you can't make the intro session — stay for a bit or settle in for the whole session
* **Clarify your goals**: write down your measurable tasks for the day on a Post-it when you arrive, or join us for the 30' intro session where we introduce ourselves and share our goals for the day
* **Enough spaces**: main table is for quiet focus, multiple nearby tables for casual conversation, and sofa's in the back for taking video calls(be mindful that the hotel music is always on in the background). After each focus session, if you’re still in the flow, feel free to remain seated — no need to move. If you're up for a chat, we can move to a social area for a relaxed break
* **Pomodoro-style rhythm**: We work in 45' focus blocks followed by 15' social breaks. If 45' feels too long, feel free to break it into two 20' focus sessions with a short 5' reset in between. You’ll need to self-regulate these shorter cycles, just tune into your own flow and rejoin when ready
* **Quiet companionship**: no pressure to talk during focus time — just shared presence and support
💡 **New to Pomodoro?** Don’t worry — we’ll guide you gently. No apps or timers needed.
**🪑Seating information:**
* If this is your first time joining us, please look for **Vlad** when you arrive in front of the **Ground Floor Bar** (not at the hotel reception).
* There is a **long table with about 12 seats** for those joining the **peer accountability session** — please arrive on time if you’d like to sit here.
* There are also **round tables nearby** for anyone who prefers a more flexible setup.
* If you’d like to **work independently (without the Pomodoro sessions),** but still be part of the group energy, just let **Vlad** know — we’ll make sure you’re comfortably included. 💛
💬 Why Join?
* Beat procrastination with gentle accountability
* Reclaim your momentum without doing it alone
* Enjoy a change of scenery that boosts your focus
* Be part of a community that shows up — without hustle
Bring your project. Bring your presence. Let’s work side-by-side. 💚
SideEvent: AiTinkerers Vienna
LINK: [AiTinkerers Vienna](https://vienna.aitinkerers.org/p/ai-tinkerers-vienna-strabag)
## Vienna Builders 🛠️
AI Tinkerers Vienna returns for its second session of 2026 on March 26th. We are gathering at STRABAG for an evening dedicated to the practitioners building at the intersection of foundation models and the physical world.
This is a curated, technical environment for those actively shipping code. We prioritize implementation details, architecture trade-offs, and working systems over high-level presentations. Registration is open now via the form above.
### 🎤 Call for Demos: Show Your Stack
We are looking for builders to share technical demonstrations. This is a technical show-and-tell for builders, by builders. We want to see your messy experiments, creative hacks, and technical discoveries in action. Your demo should answer: “How did you build this interesting thing?” not “Why should someone use this product?”
**Demo Requirements:**
* **No Slides:** Run live code, walk through architecture diagrams, or zoom into workflow graphs.
* **Technical Depth:** Share your prompt engineering strategies, agentic workflows, or orchestration layers.
* **Imperfection Welcome:** We value raw, early-stage experiments and the lessons learned from what broke.
Photo Walk - in search of Cherry Bloom
Join me for a photo walk :)
Spring is here and cherry trees have started blooming! Thursday is also supposed to be snowing heavily and that combination could be quite interesting :)
We will start our walk at Mexikoplatz, then take U1 to Alte Donau, from where we go discover Donaupark :)
After the walk you are invited to join me for a warm drink at a neraby cafe.
The event is free of charge but will be limited to max 10 people as it is meant as an opportunity to connect. It is suitable for all regardless of age/level/gear.
IMPORTANT: These events are usually full - please only sign up if you intend to join. Cancelations less than 24h hours in advance are not allowed.
Platform Engineering Vienna - March 2026 Meetup
Join us at our March Meetup event for great talks, discussions and beers. Big thanks to Posedio for hosting!
**Agenda**:
* Doors open 5:30 p.m.
* ***Talk 1: 6:00 to 6:30 p.m.***
* **Speaker**: Christian Kirchknopf
* **Title**: Building a Secure In-House LLMaaS Platform: BRZ's Approach to AI for Federal Government
* **Abstract**: In this talk, I demonstrate how we (BRZ) have developed an Enterprise-Ready LLM-as-a-Service platform that provides government applications simple and secure access to Large Language Models – without dependency on public cloud providers and without data sharing with third parties.
Through a unified API, AI applications gain access to locally operated models (e.g., Mistral) or optionally to public cloud providers – depending on requirements, costs, and data protection needs of the workload.
Discuss the architectural and product decisions: vLLM as a GPU-optimized inference engine, a central AI gateway that enforces multi-tenancy, security, and comprehensive observability.
A brief live demo will show how applications and developers access AI models through a single API – with token-based quotas per tenant and intelligent routing.
An experience report from an exciting AI infrastructure project in Austria.
* **Break: 6:30 to 6:45 p.m.**
* ***Talk 2: 6:45 to 7:30 p.m.***
* **Speaker**: Damjan Gjurovski
* **Title**: What is A(I) platform?
* **Abstract:** In this talk I will discuss the need of platforms in the age of AI. I will outline some hard-won lessons from my previous experience in developer platforms, data platforms and SRE teams, and discuss how these apply to AI platforms.
On the one hand, I will make the argument that AI makes certain aspects of platforms and platform engineering unnecessary, but on the other hand reinforces the need for other platform components.
Finally, I will attempt to differentiate between the two new platform types out there – AI platforms and AI Engineering platforms and discuss the capabilities and requirements for each.
* **Networking**: start 7:45 p.m.

Drink & Paint Visionboard
Mit der Energie des Neubeginns im Frühling verbindest du dich mit deinen inneren Visionen, Wünschen und Zielen.
Wenn dein eigener innerer Kompass klar ausgerichtet ist, wird vieles leichter - und das hast du dir wirklich verdient.
Bestärke dich positiv, in dem du dich auf das fokussierst, was dir wirklich wichtig ist, was dich nährt und wohin du wirklich möchtest
Ich lade dich herzlich zu meinem Drink & Paint: Vision Board 2026 ein.
In entspannter Atmosphäre, kannst du dich sammeln und neu ausrichten und - mit Prosecco oder Kräuter Tee in der Hand - kreativ werden. Auf einer schönen Leinwand gestaltest du eine Collage als dein persönliches Visionboard, zum Aufhängen zu Hause. Es sind keine künstlerischen Vorkenntnisse erforderlich.
### Warum ein Visionboard so wirkungsvoll ist
Ein Visionboard bringt Klarheit in deine Wünsche, stärkt deinen Fokus und macht deine Ziele sichtbar.
Durch die Bilder und Symbole sprichst du dein Unterbewusstsein an – das erhöht Motivation, Selbstwirksamkeit und die Bereitschaft, neue Schritte zu gehen.
Der kreative Prozess beruhigt, verbindet dich mit deinen echten Bedürfnissen und schafft einen positiven inneren Raum, in dem Veränderung leichter möglich wird.
Dein Visionboard begleitet dich danach wie ein klarer, freundlicher Kompass durch das Jahr.
Was ist für dich inkludiert?
* Leinwand, hochwertige Zeitschriften, Kleber, Scheren, Stanleymesser, verschiedene Farben, Kreiden, Stifte und vieles mehr
* Getränke und kleine Snacks
Ich leite und begleite dich durch den Nachmittag / Abend und helfe dir zu den tieferen Schichten deiner Wünsche vorzudringen und natürlich auch bei der kreativen Umsetzung.
Magnolia Blossom Photo Walk at the Japanese garden (Setagaya Park)
Hi All,
Join us for a walk in Setagaya Park in Vienna during magnolia blossoms!
This is not a professional photoshoot — just a relaxed meetup where we can take cool photos of each other, enjoy the flowers, and have fun.
Make sure you have enough space on your phone for lots of pictures!
Think of wearing smth in spring colors: e.g., white, blue, pink, yellow...
To add a little Asian vibe, I’ll bring a Chinese umbrella and a Chinese fan as fun photo props.
This is how it was last year: [magnolia photowalk 2025](https://www.instagram.com/p/DIJw27mN5WW/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==)
After the walk and photos, we can relax together with a small picnic in the park.
📍 **Where?** Entrance in Setagaya Park, Vienna.

# FAQs
**Do all ideas have a chance at getting funded?**
Not all ideas will move forward after initial pitches on Saturday. Once pitches are complete, we’ll vote for top ideas and form teams around the 4 – 7 ideas with the most votes. You must recruit **at least four total team members** (including the founder) to move forward and have a chance at getting funded on Sunday. If your idea doesn’t move forward, you can join another team!
**Do I have to submit my idea online prior to the event?**
Unlike previous years, we don’t have the option to submit your idea online prior to the event. Instead, everyone will be going through a brainstorming exercise on Saturday that’ll help you prepare for your initial pitch.
**Will we be working for 24 hours straight?**
Nope. The event is split over two days. You’ll be building on Saturday and pitching on Sunday.
**Do I have to pitch an idea?**
Nope. You can also simply join a team.
**What types of entrepreneurs does GBH support?**
While GBH most often works with technology startups, we support *any* organization (for- or non-profit) that makes an impact on health in the US or across the world.
