Enjoy your time learning and practicing public speaking with Budapest Toastmasters! There is no need to speak or any previous experience in Public Speaking. --- 👉Keycode: 12, 3rd Floor. Please arrive by 6:20 PM, the meeting starts at 6:30 PM👉No registration or dress code is needed, the event is FREE.👉NOTE: We will have signs in the place so you can locate easily the Toastmasters Meeting room. --- Toastmasters International is a world leader in communication and leadership development. 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.

**This week's venue: Beer People \| Lázár utca 7\, Budapest 1065** We hold a bi-weekly workshop to encourage creative writing where we share pieces of creative writing and solicit feedback from the other attendees. Some members also use the forum to find others with whom to collaborate, edit work, and/or brainstorm plot, themes, settings, and so forth. And from time to time, we participate in competitions, recite and/or offer material for events organized by other groups. At the moment there is no prompt for this particular meetup. Instead, writers are invited to submit something they have (or are working on) or to craft a short story specifically for the event. Of course, there's no pressure to submit something. Many participants are interested in hearing ideas, questioning the authors, and examining style and technique. Often, we explore other published works as well. The submission guidelines are as follows: 1. limit the piece to 850 words (to give enough time for any other submissions being read at the event); 2. make the text available (though you can read it aloud) for the other attendees. Many authors bring a few printed copies, others post their work in the comments of the meetup; 3. have a question in mind for the group about the submission; and, 4. If offering something from a longer work, be prepared to give a little bit of background first.

Come and play boardgames with others in English! This event is hosted by the [Játszóház projekt](https://www.facebook.com/jatszohazprojekt). This group organizes game nights, they provide the games and explain the rules if you need it. They have a huge collection of board games, check it out [here](https://boardgamegeek.com/collection/user/jatszohazprojekt?own=1&subtype=boardgame&ff=1). If you wish to play with a specific game, they will ask what games to bring, usually on the day of the event in a facebook post. Check out the [event on facebook](https://www.facebook.com/events/966451876272480) for more information. We usually split up into smaller groups based on games, and switch as the night goes on, so you can arrive late. You can bring your own game or choose one from the pile! ***Important*** **This event is not free!** You will have to buy a wristband at the entrace for 1000 HUF (500 HUF for students). You can pay with cash or you can buy your ticket [here](https://www.tixa.hu/jhz260427). You can buy drinks and food at the bar, please don't bring your own — — — After you bought your ticket head upstairs where the bistro is, we will probably be at the biggest table, near the bar. Let me know if you have any questions, you can contact me or ask in the comment section.

In this session, we dive into Pranayama, (an ancient practice to discover the flow of energy within) and the power of conscious breathing, which is one of the most important aspects of the original yogic lifestyle. On these Tuesday evenings, we do more than just a breathwork session: this is an opportunity to explore a true harmony between our breath & the mind - body connection. We begin with a 15-minute chest-opening yoga sequence to gently expand our lungs and prepare for deeper breathing (no need for gym clothes though, just an open mind). Then, we explore different breathing techniques designed for self-awareness, relaxation, and energy flow. These classes are designed to help you discover how breath can be a tool to balance, energize, and center yourself. To close, we immerse in a short yet profound "silent concert", a meditative sound journey where 174 Hz sound waves or white noise guide us into a state of deep harmony. Whether emotions are light or heavy, thoughts are clear or clouded, this is a space to simply be and find some peace.

Eleged van a „bezzeg az én időmben” és a „snowflake” vitákból? Itt az ideje, hogy a generációs különbségekre ne problémaként, hanem kiaknázatlan erőforrásként tekints. Szeretettel várunk a KÜRT Akadémia szakmai meetupján, ahol elméleti fejtegetések helyett konkrét eszköztárat kapsz a többgenerációs csapatok működtetéséhez. **Fontos információk** * 📅 **Időpont:** 2026\. április 28\.\, kedd \| 17:30 – 20:00 * 📍 **Helyszín:** STRT Iroda (Budapest, Lövőház utca 39) * 🎟️ **Részvétel:** Az esemény ingyenes, de regisztrációhoz kötött.[ ITT TUDSZ REGISZTRÁLNI!](https://kurtakademia.hu/esemenyek/hid-a-generaciok-kozott-eszkoztar-a-hatekony-egyuttmukodeshez/) ### Előadóink és témáik A 1,5 órás szakmai blokk alatt három különböző nézőpontból járjuk körül a témát: #### 1\. GenZ a munkában – A hatékony együttműködés alapjai Előadó: Bajor Márton (Quantum) A Quantum nem csak közvetíti a fiatal munkaerőt, de aktívan kutatja is az igényeiket. Marci segít kontextusba helyezni a legfiatalabb generáció motivációit, és megmutatja, hogyan építhetsz hidat a kutatási adatok és a napi rutin közé: * **Tények a sztereotípiák mögött:** Mi az, ami valódi különbség a GenZ és az idősebbek között, és mi az, ami csak városi legenda? * **A „Z-kód” megfejtése:** Hogyan fordítsd le a kutatási eredményeket a napi operatív működés és a hatékony toborzás nyelvére? * **Hídépítés a gyakorlatban:** Milyen konkrét módszerekkel érheted el, hogy a legfiatalabbak az első naptól kezdve elkötelezett tagjai legyenek a csapatodnak? #### 2\. Generációs dinamika nagyvállalati környezetben Előadó: Felkérés alatt (Nagyvállalati HR-vezető) Hogyan skálázható a generációs menedzsment több száz fős szervezetben? Valós kihívások, tipikus bukók és bevált jó gyakorlatok egy tapasztalt HR-vezető szemével. #### 3\. Vezetői megoldások: Mit tegyél holnap reggel a csapatoddal? Előadó: Tóth Attila (Coachingcentrum) X-es vezetőként néha úgy érzed, mintha más nyelvet beszélnének a munkatársaid? Attila gyakorlatias tippeket ad: * Hogyan „huzalozd át” a szemléletmódodat a konfliktusok helyett a nyereségre? * Milyen technikákkal készítheted fel a csapatodat az együttműködésre? * Vezetői praktikák a feszültségmentes és eredményes közös munkához.

Hello everyone, Welcome to the Monthly Book Club, the discussion edition of the Budapest Silent Book Club for those who enjoy reading the same book and sharing their thoughts together. This month, we’ll be reading Humble Pi by Matt Parker a funny, surprising, and eye-opening book about what happens when maths goes wrong in the real world. From computer glitches and engineering mistakes to everyday miscalculations, the book shows how deeply our modern lives rely on numbers and how absurd the results can be when something goes slightly off. It’s an entertaining read that opens the door to conversations about technology, logic, human error, and the strange ways small mistakes can lead to very big consequences. 🕕 **Time:** 18:00–20:00 – Group discussion about the book (no silent reading hour this time) 📍 **Location: Csiga Cafe**

Building on the success of the previous events, the DevBP series is back for the **15th time** with two great talks, this time in a more private setup with smaller, curated audience. This English-language event will be held at Craft Docs' 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. Please note that RSVPs are only accepted through [ Luma here.](https://luma.com/myxm4b4o) Spots are limited and attendance will be confirmed. \-\-\- **Why I Built Pairflow and What It Taught Me About Building with LLMs** with Gergely Hodicska aka Felhő, Co-founder of CraftHub I built Pairflow, a workflow orchestration tool, to improve how effectively I work with LLMs and to reserve my attention for the parts where it adds the most value. I’ll show how my approach to planning, delegation, testing, and code review evolved, what actually worked, and the challenges I have yet to solve clearly. The focus is not on specific models or tools, but on the mental models and first principles you can use to improve how you work with LLM-assisted development. I’ll also share the hard-earned lessons that came from this continuous experimentation. **AI-native development: What actually changed in my workflow** with Gyula Halmos, Staff AI Product Manager @Craft Docs Ltd, co-maintainer of [Craft Agents](https://github.com/lukilabs/craft-agents-oss) No frameworks, no architecture diagrams. Just an honest account of using AI agents as a primary development interface for the past year. What I delegate now that I never would have before. What I stopped delegating after it burned me. How debugging, code review, and planning shifted — and the mental model changes that took longer than the tooling changes. *** Please note that RSVPs are only accepted through[ Luma, here.](https://luma.com/myxm4b4o) Spots are limited and attendance will be confirmed. *** 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).

We’re launching *Philosophy Movie Night* — a relaxed session to watch one of those movies we never get the chance to watch in thoughtful company. The format is simple: we watch a selected film (we will choose shorter ones, under 2 hours), then optionally discuss it together at the end. **How it works** * We’ll publish a poll with a shortlist of films. * You can vote. The winning movie gets screened next Wednesday. * We’ll do our best to provide **English or Hungarian subtitles** (we will specify it in advance). **What to expect** * A curated film with philosophical depth * A projector and casual atmosphere. The first to arrive gets the sofa. * An optional discussion after the screening for those who fancy talking about it. **Practical details** Location: Kisvilág Kulturális és Társadalmi Alapítvány You can arrive from 18:00 to get your seat, order some popcorn and have an introduction of the movie. Movie starts: 18:30 Ticket: Free (the space is limited, only sign if you are actually going) Donations to support the association are welcome Popcorn and beverages available for purchase **Want to influence the movie?** We made a poll in our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/budapestphilosophy/permalink/969860102200121/

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
