Scaled Agile Framework

Galerie Toolbox, Koloniestraße 120, Berlin Monday\, April 13th \| 18:00–20:00 Free entry \| Max 10 participants Book your spot here: https://luma.com/bygshie6?utm_id=97758_v0_s00_e0_tv4 Spots are limited to 10. Design Beyond the Address is a 2-hour hands-on mini workshop exploring how design can help people experiencing homelessness in Berlin. We're not here to solve homelessness in two hours — but we believe design thinking can help us understand real human needs, and come up with ideas that could genuinely make a difference. Students and beginners are very welcome. No experience required — just curiosity and a willingness to engage with a topic that matters. ––– HOW THE EVENING WORKS We start with a short presentation and open discussion on the current state of homelessness in Berlin. You'll then receive a ready-made user persona. Your job is to empathise: map their needs, pains, and everyday challenges through rapid research. From there, your group formulates 3–5 "How Might We" questions, votes on which challenge to take forward, and heads into Crazy 8s — a fast ideation method where you sketch 8 ideas in 8 minutes. You pick one idea, develop it, and prepare a short 3-minute pitch. At the end of the evening, every group presents to the room and we close with a feedback round, a group discussion, and some drinks. ––– The workshop takes place inside an ongoing exhibition by Finnish painter Juha Sääski and Henrik Jacob from Berlin — Juha's paintings speak directly to the human experience of homelessness around the world, and set a powerful tone for the evening. Hosted by Anna Oikarinen (product designer, Helsinki) and Alejandro Cruz (industrial designer, Milan) — two friends who met on exchange in Tallinn and bonded over a shared belief that design should serve real human needs. This workshop is their way of doing something meaningful with that belief. Free entry. All levels welcome. 10 spots only

**TIN\* Embodied Practices** mit Lux für **TIN\* (trans\*, inter\*, nicht-binäre, agender und genderqueere Personen)\*** Kostenlos mit **[Anmeldung](https://wearevillage.org/shop/tin-embodied-practices/w16-2026)** **Ein somatischer Bewegungsraum für TIN\*-Körper (trans\*, inter\*, nicht-binäre, agender und genderqueere Personen)**. Inspiriert von Body-Mind Centering®, der Atemarbeit nach Ilse Middendorf, Authentic Movement und Feldenkrais verbinden die Sessions angeleitete Bewegung, Berührung, Improvisation und Reflexion. Auf Basis von Konsens, Autonomie und Care stärkt die Praxis Körperwahrnehmung, Selbstbestimmung und Resilienz in einer unterstützenden Gemeinschaft. Ein bewegungsbasierter Raum zur Selbstentfaltung, der sich TIN\*-Körpern (Trans\*, Inter\*, Nicht-binär, einschließlich agender und genderqueer Identitäten) und den Lebenserfahrungen von Menschen widmet, die sich außerhalb traditioneller Cisgender-Definitionen identifizieren. Diese Praxis ist inspiriert von der Erfahrungsanatomie von Body-Mind Centering®, der Atemarbeit von Ilse Middendorf, Authentic Movement, Feldenkrais und anderen somatischen Bewegungsansätzen. Berührung, praktische und partnerschaftliche Arbeit, Tanzimprovisationswerkzeuge und kollektive Reflexion werden zu einem integrierten somatischen Bewegungsrahmen verwoben, der auf Zustimmung, Autonomie und Fürsorge basiert. Die Absicht dieses Raums ist es, die Entwicklung von Selbstvertrauen und Resilienz in unserer Körperlichkeit als TIN\*-Menschen zu unterstützen, die körperliche Autonomie zu fördern und Berührungskompetenz innerhalb einer unterstützenden und bewussten Gemeinschaft zu entwickeln. Jede Sitzung beginnt mit einer geführten somatischen Bewegungsübung, die sich auf die Entwicklung anatomischer Werkzeuge zur Selbstbeobachtung konzentriert. Wir arbeiten mit den fünf Hauptlinien (Arme, Beine, Wirbelsäule), den vier Ecken des Rumpfes (Schultern und Hüften), den drei Hauptgewichtspunkten (Kopf, Brustkorb, Becken) und den beiden Seiten des Körpers. Diese Prinzipien unterstützen die Teilnehmer dabei, sich innerhalb ihrer eigenen körperlichen Architektur zu orientieren und ein verkörpertes Bewusstsein zu entwickeln. Auf dieser Grundlage erweitert sich die Praxis zu gemeinschaftlichen Bewegungen und gemeinsamer räumlicher Gestaltung, einschließlich Zeit für Integration und Reflexion. Bewegung wird als relationale, politische und räumliche Praxis an sich betrachtet. 🔵 **TIN\* Embodied Practices** with Lux for **TIN\* (Trans\*, Inter\*, Non-binary, agender and genderqueer people)** Free **[Registration Required](https://wearevillage.org/shop/tin-embodied-practices/w16-2026)** Drawing from Body-Mind Centering®, breathwork after Ilse Middendorf, Authentic Movement and Feldenkrais, the sessions combine guided movement, touch-based exploration, improvisation and reflection. Grounded in consent, autonomy and care, the practice supports embodied awareness, bodily autonomy and resilience within a supportive community. A movement-based and self-development space dedicated to TIN\* bodies (Trans\*, Inter\*, Non-binary, including agender and genderqueer identities) and the lived experiences of people identifying outside traditional cisgender definitions. This practice draws inspiration from the experiential anatomy of Body-Mind Centering®, the breathwork of Ilse Middendorf, Authentic Movement, Feldenkrais, and other somatic movement approaches. Touch, hands-on and partnered work, dance improvisation tools, and collective reflection are woven together into an integrated somatic movement framework grounded in consent, autonomy, and care. The intention of this space is to support the cultivation of confidence and resilience in our physicality as TIN\* people, nurture bodily autonomy, and develop touch literacy within a supportive and conscious community. Each session begins with a guided somatic movement practice focused on developing anatomical tools for self-observation. We work with the five cardinal lines (arms, legs, spine), the four corners of the trunk (shoulders and hips), the three primary weights (head, chest, pelvis), and the two sides of the body. These principles support participants in orienting within their own physical architecture and cultivating embodied awareness. From this foundation, the practice expands into communal movement and shared spatial authorship, including time for integration and reflection. Movement is framed as relational, political, and spatial practice in its own right. **General Information** To engage fully in the experience, participants are encouraged to wear comfortable clothing. **Participants:** This workshop is intended for people who identify outside traditional cisgender definitions: Trans\*, Inter\*, Non-binary, including agender and genderqueer identities. **Registration:** This event has limited spots available. Registration via our website is required. **Language:** This event will be in English. **Cost:** The event is free of charge.

**Live men's circle** **April to June 2026, twice a month** After a long stretch without a space for regular, in-person circles, we're finally able to offer a **new, live men's circle in Berlin**. Many of you have asked for this over the past couple of years — a chance to meet face to face, sit together and talk in real time. The **Monday Men** circle offers a chance for that. From April through June we meet every two weeks, for two hours on a Monday evening. A closed group, with a maximum of eight participants, to encourage familiarity, trust and continuity. All the dates are: **April 13** & **27**, **May 11** & **25**, **June 8** & **22** There's a cost involved, which has been kept as low as possible, and it's only for the use of the room we'll have. A total **40 €** from each man covers all **six sessions** for all **three months**. You can attend as many sessions as you like. After the first three months, the group can choose what comes next. There could be a summer break, or the group may decide to continue. **This could be useful for you if you'd like to...** * Connect in person with other men in Berlin * Build real-life bonds, especially if you’re new to the city or to the Berlin Men’s Group * Explore ideas and challenges that matter to you * Look more closely at your experiences and how you express them * Experience a low-pressure introduction to men’s work **What we'll do...** For those who already know the online men’s circles, some parts of this format may feel familiar. As in the online format, the sessions always include: * **Welcome** – greeting and orientation from the host * **Opening round** – describing briefly what things are like for you * **Sharing round** – expanding on your thoughts, speaking freely * **Deepening round** – a chance to offer each other questions * **Open discussion** – explore what emerges together * **Closing round** – share what you take away from the session In addition, the live format allows for a few extra elements: * **Partnered conversation** * **A topic of the week**, chosen by the group * **A little movement**, such as stretching or short breaks to move around and reset attention As always - no prior experience neccessary, no preparation needed. Just walk in and grab a seat. **About me, the host...** I’m Hans. I've been co-organising the Berlin Men's Group with Peter and the others for five years now. In that time I've become a certified systemic counsellor, specialised in supporting men. For these circles my style will be practical and down-to-earth. I help hold the structure, keep things on track, and support the group so that each man can explore what matters to him in his own way. I'll be aiming for a space where men can speak honestly, listen to each other, and look at important things without it feeling heavy or complicated. If you’re curious but not sure if this feels right for you at the moment, you’re welcome to send me a message here on Meetup or email request@zigmal.org. You can ask me anything you like. *This group is being logistically supported by BMG partner project [Zigmal e.V.](www.zigmal.org), a volunteer association that focuses on strengthening men through social connection and free counselling.*

**Topic: The styles of mentoring** Are you an instructor, challenger, sponsor, or a coach? Do you think your mentees learn best with maximum autonomy, or do they need a maximum of guidance? Let's find out which styles of mentoring there are and how it helps to share knowledge. **What to Expect:** * A concise, 5-10 minute expert presentation introducing us to the nuances of the topic. * Engage in insightful discussions with fellow participants in breakout groups, exploring diverse experiences and practices. * Dive into prepared questions designed to challenge and expand your perspective on the topic. * A fantastic opportunity to network with like-minded professionals and enthusiasts passionate about software development and team building. *** **Broadening Our Discussions:** We explore a wide range of topics, including Extreme Programming (XP), agile management methods, lean theory, career management, programming katas, and other areas related to software development. Whether you're new to software, a seasoned practitioner, or an expert, your insights and experiences are valued here! *** **Event Details:** We'll gather from 7:00 PM, officially start the session at 7:15 PM, and take a break at 8:30 PM to decide the topic for our next session. Don't miss this chance to learn, share, and connect!

Estuarine Mapping ist ein mächtiges Werkzeug aus dem Cynefin-Ökosystem, um strategische Entscheidungen in komplexen Umfeldern zu navigieren – aber wie sieht das konkret aus, wenn man es zum ersten Mal in einer Organisation einsetzt? Wir haben Estuarine Mapping selbst durchgeführt und dabei wertvolle Einblicke gewonnen: Was hat gut funktioniert? Wo sind wir an unsere Grenzen gestoßen? Und welche Fragen haben sich erst im Prozess aufgetan? Beim diesem Meetup teilen wir unsere Erfahrungen aus der Praxis – ungeschönt und ehrlich. Kein perfekter Case Study, sondern ein offener Austausch über das, was wir gelernt haben und was uns noch beschäftigt. Was dich erwartet: * Ein kurzer Einblick in unsere Estuarine-Mapping-Session und den Kontext * Konkrete Learnings und Herausforderungen, die wir mitgenommen haben * Offene Diskussion: Wie geht ihr mit ähnlichen Situationen um? * Raum für Fragen, Ideen und gemeinsames Weiterdenken Ob du Estuarine Mapping bereits kennst oder erst neugierig geworden bist – komm vorbei. Wir freuen uns auf den Austausch mit Menschen, die sich für Complexity Thinking, Cynefin und strategisches Navigieren in unklaren Situationen interessieren.

A WiA Collective Wisdom Exchange At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter. This is the follow-up. Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered — and honestly explore what’s actually happening now. Together, we’ll explore: • What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in • What’s surprised you, supported you, or shifted • What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote — your word, your artifact, your intention. We’ll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. You’ll start where we all started: with what’s true right now. Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, you’re warmly invited to bring it back. The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter. Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate. What to Expect • A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup) • Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak • Reflection, listening, and lived experience — not advice-giving • Optional creative reflection alongside conversation • A calm, supportive environment Who This Is For Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change — especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords. Good to Know • No preparation required • If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - it’s optional but invited • Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome • Creative activities are optional

Join other experienced and aspiring agile coaches and professionals to: * develop and practice your coaching skills in a peer-to-peer environment * share current successes and challenges in your work environment and get support from each other * learn from each other, build better relationships and experiment with new ideas ***NOTE:*** Pre-registration is required for this event. **Please arrive 10 minutes early** to check in at the security desk.

This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD
