Leading in the Age of AI
A deep dive into the People-first Leadership domain of the Business Agility model
What leadership behaviours are necessary for your organisation to remain competitive in today's era of AI adoption — where technology is advancing faster than organisational leadership systems can adapt.
In this interactive 60-minute session, you will deep dive into the People-first Leadership domain of the Business Agility Institute’s Business Agility Model, examining how leadership must evolve to enable effective, ethical, and sustainable AI adoption.
AI doesn’t just change tools and processes — it reshapes decision-making, accountability, trust, learning, and power dynamics. This session explores how the leadership domain addresses those shifts through its underlying capabilities and observable behaviors, including:
• Fostering authentic relationships in environments increasingly mediated by AI
• Empowering with accountability when decisions are augmented (or automated)
• Realising people’s potential as learning, judgment, and creativity become the human differentiators
This is not a theory-heavy talk. The session is designed around dialogue, reflection, and shared experience, drawing on what participants are seeing firsthand as AI enters their organisations.
What you’ll gain:
• A clear leadership lens for navigating AI adoption beyond tools and frameworks
• Insight into which leadership behaviors accelerate AI-enabled value
• Practical takeaways and leadership experiments you can apply immediately
The session will be facilitated by Leo Marando, leadership coach, experienced organisational design & transformation consultant, and co-organiser of MelBAM.
Pizza and drinks will be provided, thanks to our sponsor, TeamForm 🍕🍻 — because the best learning happens through great conversations (and with a full stomach).
Come ready to think, share, and rethink what leadership means in the age of AI.
Docker Melb Crew #1 AI Engineering with Containers feat. Nvidia DGX Spark
Join the Docker Melb Crew for a deep dive into the next frontier of AI: **Agentic Systems**. We are moving beyond simple chatbots to discuss how to build, containerize, and deploy autonomous agents that can plan, reason, and act.
This session brings together Melbourne’s engineers and architects to discuss the unique challenges of running multi-agent workflows. We will explore how containerization provides the isolation and scalability needed for complex agentic architectures.
**🚀 Powered by: The DGX Spark** We will demonstrate what happens when Agentic AI meets extreme compute. See how agent workloads perform when accelerated by the **NVIDIA DGX Spark** (GB10 Blackwell / CUDA 13). We will look less at the metal and more at how this level of throughput unlocks real-time reasoning and massive parallel agent execution and prototyping.
**📅 Agenda:**
* **Networking & Food:** Connect with the local AI and Cloud-Native community.
* **Topic 1:** **Prototyping Local AI Agents with Docker and DGX Spark** Learn how to use the Docker ecosystem to build private, powerful AI agents that live on your own hardware, by [Thiago Shimada Ramos](https://www.linkedin.com/in/thiago4go/), Docker Captain
* **Topic 2: First Steps with Containers** Short, fast-paced lightning talks from new Docker users sharing their first projects.
* **Containerised ELT Architecture**
* *Speaker:* [Rodrigues Lopes](https://www.linkedin.com/in/rodrigueslopesdataarchiect/), Data Architect (D2i Consulting)
* *What you will learn:* A real-world guide to Modern Data Architecture
* **Socializing:** Huge networking opportunity to discuss your AI stacks.
**📍 Logistics:**
* **Date:** Thursday, February 12, 2026
* **Location:** Microsoft Office, Melbourne
* **Time:** 5:30 PM (Doors Open)
**Who should attend?** AI Engineers, DevOps professionals, and System Architects looking to build and scale autonomous agent systems using modern container standards.

Our February Go Meetup @ Stile
Hi Gophers!
We’re kicking off the year with our first Go meetup in February, covering structured concurrency and anti-fragility with speakers Peter Delafosse, Max Collier, and Nick Spain.
🎤 Speakers
**Go News**
Peter Delafosse
**Better Structured Concurrency for Go**
Max Collier
An introduction to [sourcegraph/conc](https://sourcegraph.com/blog/building-conc-better-structured-concurrency-for-go) a library improving concurrency handling in Go.
Max will cover:
* The problem `conc` is designed to solve
* A walkthrough of its interface
* Insights into its internals
Based on the Sourcegraph blog “Building conc: Better Structured Concurrency for Go.”
**Automating anti-fragility**
Nick Spain, Head of Platform, Stile Education
At Stile we have a bug zero policy. This encompasses actions items (for reducing toil and preventing future incidents) and test flake. This means we actively prioritise bugs all the time, they're not languishing in the backlog, action items are completed whilst people still have context, and we consistently work to reduce test flake. I will talk about: How this policy is implemented, what tooling we use to help us, and how we have automated this work using AI.
🗓️ Call for Speakers
Interested in speaking at an upcoming event?
Our format includes:
* lighting talks: \~10 minutes
* deep dives: 20–30 minutes

Thought Experiment: Closure (Valentines Day Special)
Ever wondered how humanity would respond to an asteroid heading for Earth? Or how the world might react to first contact with aliens?
Welcome to **The Thought Experiment** — a new kind of meetup where we explore big *“What if…?”* scenarios in a fun but thoughtful way. Each session, we’ll pick one scenario (from global crises to wild sci-fi situations) and work together to imagine solutions, strategies, and possibilities.
This is for **curious minds of all kinds** — students, professionals, creatives, or anyone who enjoys thinking differently. Some people might bring research, others just bring imagination. Either way, we’ll brainstorm together and see where the discussion takes us.
[Thought Experiment Site](https://thoughtexperiment.au/)
**We ask everyone to Buy a drink at the venue**
**You Need to have Conversational English.**
**This is a 3PM start event.**
**Format:**
* Quick intro to the scenario
* Small-group discussions
* Share back with the group
* Wrap up + (optional) post-discussion drinks
For our first meetup, we’ll introduce the format, get to know each other, and jump into a scenario together.
***Story Arc: Horrors of Consciousness***
Keywords: *Love, Unrequited Love, After Life*
**Scenario: Closure**
A Special Valentines Day Event.
You remember meeting her.
You remember her smile,
not for how it looked,
but for what it did to you.
After that, things seemed to fall into place
more easily than they should have.
Nothing remarkable about the place.
Only the certainty that something essential
had quietly begun.
You remember the love clearly.
What’s harder to place
is how little it asked of time.
There were no obvious breaks.
No moment where it failed.
Only the sense, much later,
that it never had to contend with anything else.
How can a love like this be real,
and why does that question feel dangerous?
Oxford Scholar. Saturday 3–5 PM.
A Small group. Big imagination.
No right answers — just curiosity, debate, and fun.

This is an "open floor" event—no rigid slides or formal pitches. Just a group of locals grabbing a drink and talking about how we use n8n to reclaim our time and supercharge our businesses.
### **Who This Is For**
* **The Curious/Newbie:** If you’ve heard of n8n but haven't started yet, come see what’s possible. No question is too basic!
* **The Pro/Builder:** Share your latest "Agentic" workflows, swap tips on self-hosting, or help troubleshoot a tricky expression.
* **The Business Owner:** See how Melbourne SMEs are using automation to handle lead gen, reporting (Looker Studio), and internal apps (AppSheet)

Prioritising what matters workshop
🧭 Prioritising What Matters Most
In January, we did the **Vision Boarding** workshop 🖼️
Big ideas. Big feelings. Big “ah yes, this is the life” energy.
And then…
Monday happened. 😐
This workshop is about what comes **after** the vision:
👉 **What do you actually do next when everything feels important and your brain has simply left the chat?**
If your to-do list currently:
* Stares back at you menacingly 👁️
* Has items from 2019 still “in progress”
* Feels like a moral judgement instead of a tool
✨ welcome ✨
We’re taking your existing vision and turning it into **clear priorities and doable tasks**, without shame, hustle, or pretending you’re powered by unlimited spoons.
### 🛠️ What we’ll do (chaos → clarity pipeline)
* Use **values** as a decision filter (not a personality test, promise) 🧽
* Narrow things down to **3–5 values that matter *right now*** (everyone else can wait)
* Do a quick **life audit** to find where your energy is thriving vs. quietly escaping through the vents 🪫
* Translate all that into:
* A short list of priorities that actually deserve your time 🎯
* Habits that won’t immediately start a rebellion 😤
* One-off tasks with a suspiciously high payoff 💥
* Apply the **TOP framework** (Time-pressure × Outcome ÷ Perspiration) so you’re not spinning the “what should I do?” wheel every day 🎡
### 💬 Plot twist: you will talk to people
This is a **social workshop** 🤝
There will be:
* Pair chats
* Occasional “oh wow same” moments
No forced sharing. No spotlight anxiety.
You can participate by talking, listening, nodding, or aggressively highlighting your worksheet. All valid.
### 🧠 Who it’s for
Neurodivergent folks (ADHD, autistic, AuDHD, gloriously neurospicy 🌶️) who:
* Came to the Vision Boarding workshop and want the *actual follow-through (but it's ok if you didn't come to it 😅)*
* Have a vision but a to-do list that has become a cry for help 🆘
* Are tired of productivity systems that assume you wake up refreshed and motivated every day
### 📍 The extremely important logistics
🗓 **Sunday 15 February**
⏰ **1.30pm – 3.30pm**
📍 **Sandringham Library**
Worksheets provided ✍️
No pressure to overshare 🙅
Low-energy attendance fully respected 😴💚
Same vision. Fewer tabs. Better priorities.
Let’s make your to-do list less cursed. 🪄🧠

Coffee Catchup - Blackburn ☕
Instead of having coffee while watching Netflix, we’re coming together as a community, connecting in person, sharing tips, providing support wherever we can AND having coffee together ☕.
* **What We’re About**
You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with, so join us — and be part of a community that rises above circumstances and creates opportunities. Inspire and be inspired by those who make things happen.
It's a relaxed, organic space to connect with like-minded people and network—genuinely talking, learning from each other, and connecting over shared interests.
* **What to Expect**
Casual Meetups: We gather semi-regularly at a local café to chat about everything from stepping outside your comfort zone to business ideas, creative projects, and building a life aligned with your purpose. It’s relaxed, easy, and welcoming—no need to have anything “figured out.”
An Easy-Going Space: We keep things simple and low-pressure. Once everyone arrives, we ease in with some light conversation and naturally break into smaller groups.
Networking: Feel free to introduce yourself or let people know what you're working on if you feel like it. And if anyone wants to quickly shout out what they’re working on or looking for before we settle in, go for it—it’s a great way to spark new conversations.
* **Host Support**
If you’d like a one-on-one chat with me about your business, just tap me on the shoulder. I’ll be floating around and happy to make time for you.
**Quick note for the day:**
Depending on the weather, we might go for a walk around Blackburn Lake. Just remember to wear comfy shoes :)

CBusData - Ok I Want to Get Data into Fabric - Now What?
I love my job and one of the main things I do is help customers get going with any of the data technologies at Microsoft. Right now there are a lot of my customers asking about Microsoft Fabric. It's hard to weave across all the shiny new options across the Fabric landscape, let alone figure out where it fits into your organization. In this session we'll focus on answering one question - how can I get data into Fabric? We'll talk through the "it depends" options and see some of the options in live demos.
Free In-Person Meeting: Get Over Losses & Betrayals, Build Lasting Relationships
This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships.
Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse.
Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well.
Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship.
Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action?
Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships!
Break free from self imposed limitations
Here we will discuss:
• How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes.
• Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you?
• Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it?
• Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love?
• Fights & arguments - what's really behind them?
• What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others?
• How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change?
• Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them?
• How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about?
• How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career?
Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general.
Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person.
Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life.
We look forward to having you join us!
This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
