**AI Essentials for Product Managers (beyond the basics)** (Prices go up on May 15!) AI is reshaping product management, from how we discover problems to how we ship and improve features. This hands-on, one-day workshop goes beyond the basics: you'll sharpen how you run AI-assisted discovery, scale your own and your team's productivity with agents and automations, and learn how to build AI-powered products where the real work is no longer building the prototype but deciding when the output is good enough to ship. **Who is this for?** * Mid to senior product managers who already use AI and want to level up * PMs leading discovery or delivery on AI-powered features * Product people who want frameworks that hold up under real product pressure, not demo-ware **Course Content** *AI-Assisted Product Discovery.* We'll look at how discovery itself changes when agents can set up and maintain a research repository, synthesize qualitative insights, and run quantitative analyses alongside you. We'll talk candidly about discovery slop, research that looks shiny but is actually shitty, and how to avoid producing it. You'll practice using vibe coding from a discovery lens: choosing the right thing to test, picking the right kind of prototype, and setting it up so it delivers real signal in a live setting rather than just looking impressive in a demo. *Scaling Productivity with AI.* From building your own AI agents to designing automations across your stack, you'll learn how to spot the highest-leverage use cases in your daily work and your team's workflows, and how to actually set them up pragmatically with the tools you already use. *Building AI Products.* Shipping AI products changes what product management looks like. You often have a feasible prototype on day one; the real challenge is improving the output, handling non-determinism, and deciding when it's good enough to launch. We'll go hands-on with the building blocks that make this tractable: evaluations, observability tooling, and the product decisions around them. *Driving AI Transformation.* Getting good at AI as an individual PM is one thing; shifting an entire product organization is another. Julia will share how she is leading AI transformation at the SaaS startup she works at: how she moved the mindset of the organization, built momentum for innovation, and keeps the company on the front foot instead of waiting to be disrupted. You'll take away a clearer picture of what your role can look like in that shift, and how to start driving it from where you sit today. Throughout the day you'll work through concrete product scenarios, cut through the hype, and leave with frameworks and tools you can apply the very next day, whether you're improving how you discover, how you work, or what you ship. Throughout the day, Julia will weave in lessons from driving AI transformation inside a SaaS startup, so you leave with perspective on both the craft and the organizational shift around it. To make sure everyone arrives on the same footing, you'll receive around 2 hours of pre-workshop video material covering AI literacy essentials: how LLMs actually work, their risks and limitations, and the fundamentals of prompt engineering. The workshop itself then starts where the basics end. **What you cannot expect** * A deep dive into vibe coding as a craft. We will vibecode, but through a product discovery lens, not as a goal in itself. * A prompt engineering course. The pre-work covers the fundamentals so we can spend the day on harder, more product-specific problems. * Superficial blabla. We go into the real struggles of doing product management with and around AI, not the hype reel. “With Julia’s clarity, hands-on guidance, strong visuals and buzzword-free examples, the spark was unmistakable. She debunked the myths, demystified AI and left everyone excited to try it in product management. A real rockstar workshop.”Melanie Wyssen-Voß, Vice President Product FACT24 **COMBI-TICKETS** This workshop can be bought in combination with the Product Academy SUMMIT at a reduced rate on [our conference webite](https://eventfrog.ch/en/p/courses-seminars/vocational-education/ai-essentials-for-product-managers-workshop-7392202884182503088.html). (Prices go up on May 15, 2026!) **YOUR TRAINER** Julia Bastian is a Product Leader with more than nine years of experience building and scaling digital products and driving innovation. As VP Product at Alasco, a venture-backed proptech company, she scaled the product and engineering organization from 5 to 50 people and built strong thought leadership around B2B product discovery. Today, she leads Alasco’s AI transformation, ensuring the company harnesses AI to stay ahead of disruption and deliver real customer value. Alongside her leadership role, Julia works as an AI educator and consultant. Her goal is to accelerate product managers’ AI learning journey by making the topic approachable and lowering the entry barrier for those just starting out. Staying grounded in a real product environment is essential to her. She works hands-on on AI topics, from automating internal workflows to integrating AI agents into the product, rather than only talking about them from a consulting perspective. Julia has a special ability to visualize complex ideas, which helps her share her knowledge in a clear and engaging way and make difficult concepts feel simple and actionable.

Most workouts ignore the place where pleasure, power, movement, and self-trust meet. This class starts there. What this is A women’s movement class that blends somatic fitness, pelvic training, breath, regulation, and embodied release. We train the body where many women want more freedom, sensation, and confidence: the pelvis, hips, legs, core, breath, and nervous system. The result is not just a stronger body. It is a body that feels more available, more responsive, more alive. Why it’s different This class works from the center outward. Through active movement patterns, angle work, holds, pleasure-linked endurance, breath-led pacing, and release, your body learns new options: more mobility, more stability, more softness, more choice. You build strength without hardening, openness without forcing, and pleasure without turning it into performance. Pelvis We train the center that shapes how you move, hold yourself, breathe, and feel. Pelvic mobility and strength can change not only posture and movement, but also how supported, confident, and free you feel in intimacy. Life Force Pleasure is not treated here as something random or performative. It is something the body becomes more available for when there is strength, breath, space, and self-contact. What some call libido, we also understand as life force — the spark behind sensuality, creativity, confidence, and aliveness. Regulation Real opening is not forced. It is regulated. That is why this class includes not only activation, but also the shift into release: breath, pelvic floor relaxation, jaw and face softening, and moments that bring you out of the head and back into the body.

EXPERIENCE PHILOSOPHICAL SYNCRETISM, INNER ALCHEMY, AND GAME SPIRIT. Try a live (private) session of **Mäng (offline in Zürich or online worldwide)**, a powerful self-exploration game that helps uncover hidden mental scripts and rewire the way you think, feel and act. It is a tool for a really **profound change** that follows the four stages of inner alchemy. A modernized version of an ancient contemplative practice, reimagined as a transformational tool based on psychological insight, symbolic logic, and inner strategy, it is not therapy or coaching in the traditional sense. Instead, it’s an immersive deep-dive into the unconscious mind through metaphor and archetype with a game spirit. 💡 **How it works:** Mäng is built on four stages of real, lasting change: 1. **Discovery** – Identify limiting beliefs and internal programs 2. **Uninstallation** – Let go of outdated patterns 3. **Design** – Create new mental strategies 4. **Integration** – Embed them into your deeper awareness You’ll be guided through this process by the **Master of Mäng**, who offers structure, questions, and insight, while you remain the one making all decisions and discoveries. 🌿 **Who is this for?** For everyone (regardless of beliefs, age, gender, etc.), but more than anyone - for those who didn't find answers or sufficient depth in pop coaching and psychology. 🕒 **Important:** This is a deep game. A full session lasts **4 hours**. Time slots are defined individually. Contact me directly to get an appointment. Price for newbies: 250 CHF

Do you want more motivation and confidence to 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. Are you 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. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This class is held at the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center.

**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.

This is an in-person meeting. Would you like to know the Real You, not just a shadow of yourself? Does your life energy feel somehow trapped within? Does your self-confidence get easily shaken? Do you get in the way of your own goals? We will discuss the real source of all this, what holds you back in life, and how to handle it so you can achieve more successful and happier living. Perhaps you get weighed down with negative emotions you can't seem to shrug off. Or find yourself doing strange and irrational things - not really being yourself. We will cover why that is and tools that work to help you unearth your self, your self-confidence and motivation. This meeting will help you learn about how to effectively overcome: -Out-of-control unwanted emotions -Low self-esteem -Anxiety -Negativity -Stress -Irrational fears -Traumatic or painfully emotional incidents -Breakups -Betrayals -Feeling like you're not really yourself -Self-doubt... We will discuss how to unleash the inner you and tap into your true potential. So come to this online meetup! This meeting is sponsored by the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation of Central Ohio

Join the Columbus AI community for a special event. **Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether you’re running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works. We’re interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how it’s hosted and managed, how you built it, and why you’ve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks. This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If you’d like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyone’s demonstrations. Come ready to show what you’ve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home.

## 🤝 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. AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!) 🍕 Logistics & Perks Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided!
