This is an [in-person communication lab](https://www.presentation-school.com/berlin-presentation-lab) that helps professionals speak clearly and confidently under pressure using proven methods. Most people don’t struggle because they don’t practice enough. They struggle because they practice without the right principles. This session focuses on deliberate, guided practice informed by performance psychology, neuroscience, and modern communication training. **What You Will Do** * Learn one science-based communication principle that improves real-world performance. * Train that principle in structured speaking exercises designed for skill development. * Receive clear, professional feedback you can apply immediately. Practice and feedback are guided by experienced communication professionals who work with executives and senior professionals. This is not peer-to-peer feedback or open discussion. **Who Should Attend?** * Non-native English speakers * Professionals who present, lead meetings, or speak up at work * Anyone who overthinks, freezes, or loses clarity under pressure * People who want structured improvement, not just repetition No prior experience is required. **What This is NOT** * A lecture. * A motivational talk. * A public performance. * Unstructured open practice. * Peer-led feedback or opinion-based critique. **Before The Session** Before the session, participants complete a short preparation form to clarify their goals and common communication challenges. This helps ensure the practice and feedback during the lab are as relevant and effective as possible. **Optional:** Participants may submit a short video (1–2 minutes) or written questions. This is optional and used to personalise focus areas and examples during the session. No individual coaching is provided. **After the Session** Participants receive a short follow-up pack with key takeaways, practical drills, a reflection question, and guidance on next steps. **Practical Information** Language: English Duration: 2 hours Format: In-person, structured group lab Address: Chausseestraße 86, 10115 Berlin Healthy snacks and water provided. Price: €25 per session If you are looking for a professional, practical way to improve how you communicate and want to train using principles that actually lead to results, this lab is a good place to start.

BHNT 110: the third BHNT in 2026. The title is inspired by [Human brain cells on a chip learned to play Doom](https://www.newscientist.com/article/2517389-human-brain-cells-on-a-chip-learned-to-play-doom-in-a-week/) \- but also the doom and scrolling through it all around us currently\. Your hacks do not have to be connected to the title (bonus points if they do though) Please RSVP and bring your hacks! There are 8 dynamically allocated Slots that consist of 5min presentation + 5min conversation with the audience. To refresh your memories or get familiar with the concept - see some old hacks here: [https://bhnt.c-base.org](https://bhnt.c-base.org/) Hope to see you - looking forward!

**This is 100% non-profit. The 15€ sign up fee for everyone is only to minimize last-minute cancellations. The total sum goes to a bar-tap that everyone can use to order drinks until the amount is used up. ‼️NO REFUNDS‼️** **‼️Please don't just show up without RSVPing here and paying the 15€. We have a separate room that has limited capacity and a specific drinks agreement with the bar - so splitting up the bill won't become a mess.‼️** **Small update on how your money get's used from May 2024 onwards:** As of this month, meetup.com has started charging me 34€ instead of 16€ per month. I've decided to distribute this fee evenly among all us participants every month. Example: In the last 12 meetups, the average number of attendees was 17. With 17 attendees I would effectively collect 230€ (after fees). I would now substract 34€ leaving us with 196€ that go to the bar. 15% get's tipped to the wait staff, in this case 30€, leaving us with 166€ effectively to order drinks. Hope everyone is cool with this system. :) Website: https://www.pberg-engineers.me WhatsApp groups: Please come and join us on WhatsApp! \- "PBerg Engineers \- NEWS" \- Only organizers can post announcements or polls \-\> https://chat\.whatsapp\.com/EqMJMmlCZO6LOOfAoG4yTj \- "PBerg Engineers \- DISCUSS" \- Everyone can post \-\> https://chat\.whatsapp\.com/LPuo76J83gF6IZMLUcM4u2 Please join those groups now if you're interested. :) All skill/education-levels welcome! :) Lightning Talks: \- TBD We'll also have a brief "Jobs: Lost & Found section". **Location:** From the street you will have to enter the right hand Cafe Chagall (yes, there are 2).

Hast du Angst, vor Publikum zu sprechen? Verlangt dein Beruf Präsentationen, Pitches oder Vorträge? Wirst du nervös, sobald alle Augen auf dich gerichtet sind? Verlierst du manchmal den roten Faden oder merkst, wie deine Zuhörer gedanklich auf Wanderschaft gehen? Dann bist du bei uns genau richtig. Bei Toastmasters trainierst du deine Redekunst in einem sicheren, wertschätzenden Umfeld. Schritt für Schritt. Rede für Rede. Mit klarem Feedback und echter Unterstützung. Hier wächst nicht nur deine Technik, sondern auch deine Präsenz. ## So läuft ein typischer Abend ab 🎤 Der Abend wird von **Alexandra, unserer Präsidentin**, eröffnet. Sie führt durch das Programm und sorgt dafür, dass sich Gäste wie Mitglieder gleichermaßen willkommen fühlen. ### 🗣 Vorbereitete Reden (meist 4 Reden à 5–7 Minuten) In der Regel erwarten dich vier vorbereitete Reden. Persönlich, inspirierend, humorvoll oder nachdenklich. Jede Rede dauert zwischen 5 und 7 Minuten und ist Teil eines individuellen Lernwegs. ### ☕ Pause Zeit zum Austausch, Durchatmen und Kennenlernen. ### ⚡ Stegreifreden (1–2 Minuten) Hier wird es spontan. Ein Impuls, eine Frage, ein Gedanke. Auch **mutige Gäste** dürfen sich ausprobieren und ganz ungezwungen Bühnenluft schnuppern. ### 📝 Feedbackteil Nun kommt der vielleicht wichtigste Teil des Abends. * **Bewertungsreden** zu den vorbereiteten Reden (je 2–3 Minuten) * Feedback weiterer Rollen wie Zeitnehmer oder Sprachstilbewerter * Ein **Gesamtbewerter**, der den Abend als Ganzes reflektiert Das Feedback ist konstruktiv, konkret und immer wertschätzend. Es zeigt Stärken auf und gibt klare Impulse zur Weiterentwicklung. ### 👋 Verabschiedung Zum Abschluss rundet Alexandra den Abend ab und gibt einen Ausblick auf kommende Treffen. ### 🍽 Danach: Restaurant & Socializing Wer mag, kommt mit ins Restaurant. Dort wird weitergeredet, gelacht, diskutiert und vernetzt. Wenn du lernen willst, klarer zu sprechen, souveräner aufzutreten und deine Botschaften wirkungsvoll zu platzieren, dann komm einfach zum nächsten Clubtreffen. Die Bühne wartet nicht auf Perfektion. Sie belohnt Mut. ✨

**The Data-Driven Brand: Using Analytics to Shape Perception** Can you use analytics to improve tacos? This being CBUSDAW, we think the answer is probably “yes”, but we’re not sure how to implement or test this theory. For our April meetup we’ve got Sara Kear, CMO of Condado Tacos, to investigate this delicious question. Sara will explore how she blends quantitative data and qualitative customer feedback to shape brand positioning and drive business decisions. We all know that marketing and analytics go way beyond attribution. Sara will show how Condado uses customer insights to inform product and pricing strategy. She’ll also highlight how Condado leverages customer feedback at scale to influence operational priorities, positioning marketing as the voice of the customer across the organization. In the last 12 years Condado has gone from one location in Columbus to 52 locations across 10 states, so we’re guessing there’s more to that growth than really good guac (though the guac probably helps). Ultimately, this talk focuses on the intersection of art and science—using data to inform creativity and build a brand that resonates with customers in a measurable way. **About Our Speaker** Sara Kear is Chief Marketing Officer at Condado Tacos, where she oversees brand, restaurant design, menu and pricing strategy, off-premise including catering, and customer data strategy. Since joining in 2021, she has helped grow the brand from 19 to 52 locations while building a data-driven marketing organization focused on loyalty and customer insights. Condado has since been named to the Inc. 5000, recognized as Breakout Retailer by Chain Store Age, and consistently ranked among FastCasual’s Top 100 Movers & Shakers.

The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again. We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all. Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.
