After each focus session, if you’re still in the flow, feel free to remain seated — no need to move. If you're up for a chat, we can move to a social area for a relaxed break * **Pomodoro-style rhythm**: We work in 45' focus blocks followed by 15' social breaks. If 45' feels too long, feel free to break it into two 20' focus sessions with a short 5' reset in between. You’ll need to self-regulate these shorter cycles, just tune into your own flow and rejoin when ready * **Quiet companionship**: no pressure to talk during focus time — just shared presence and support 💡 **New to Pomodoro?** Don’t worry — we’ll guide you gently. No apps or timers needed. **🪑Seating information:** * If this is your first time joining us, please look for **Vlad** when you arrive in front of the **Ground Floor Bar** (not at the hotel reception). * There is a **long table with about 12 seats** for those joining the **peer accountability session** — please arrive on time if you’d like to sit here. * There are also **round tables nearby** for anyone who prefers a more flexible setup. * If you’d like to **work independently (without the Pomodoro sessions),** but still be part of the group energy, just let **Vlad** know — we’ll make sure you’re comfortably included. 💛 💬 Why Join? * Beat procrastination with gentle accountability * Reclaim your momentum without doing it alone * Enjoy a change of scenery that boosts your focus * Be part of a community that shows up — without hustle Bring your project.

**About this event:** Join us on 26 March in Vienna for an evening where we'll explore how leaders actually develop capability - not in classrooms, but inside work itself. **Agenda:** **16:00 – Arrive, connect over drinks and nibbles** **16:30 – The Future of Leadership: Workflow-Embedded Skills Development** * Why traditional leadership development isn't transferring to practice * What leaders actually need in 2026 (and it's not just another model) * What workflow embedded skills development actually looks like - real examples from teams we've worked with **17:30 – Interactive Workshop: Building the Leadership Skills Your Organisation Needs** * Learn about ways to build people skils hands-on * Work through a real leadership challenge with peers * Leave with practical next steps for your context **19:30 – Networking** * Wine, food (gluten-free and vegan options available) * Connect with people facing similar challenges **16:00 – Arrive, connect over drinks and nibbles** **Why this matters** Leadership development is broken. Organisations invest heavily, leaders attend programmes, certificates get handed out - and then nothing changes. The problem isn't lack of frameworks. It's the gap between learning and doing. In the coming years, leadership development must shift from event-based training to workflow-embedded practice. At Kokoro, we've spent years answering one question: how do you empower leaders to create the conditions for sustained performance, genuine motivation, and teams that thrive? At this event, we bring leaders, teams, L&D professionals, and organisations who are committed to making that shift. Together, we will develop steps to make it real. **Who is this for** You're leading a team, department, or organisation. You're in L&D and see that traditional programmes aren't transferring to practice. You run an SME and need practical ways to develop leaders without the corporate overhead. You've sent people to leadership programmes and watched them return motivated, and then not being able to transfer the skills in to work. You know the theory-practice gap is real. You want skills development that builds into daily workflows, not outside them. **Event Details** 📆 Thursday, 26 March 2026 ⏰ 16:30–19:30 (Arrive from 16:00) **📍**Olinda Bar, Schönbrunner Str. 23, 1050 Vienna 🪑: 40 seats (limited) 🗣️: English and German 💲: Free **Register** Secure your place now by registering as spaces are limited. Questions? Reach out to Imran @ imran@bekokoro.com We ask you to register only if you can really make it. Thanks. **About Kokoro** Kokoro was founded in 2018 because we believed the way performance is measured and optimised is broken. We work with leaders and teams to build resilient, high-performing cultures where people can learn, grow, and thrive - even amid complexity and change. We do this through our team and leadership development software and services like one-on-one coaching, team development, organisational consulting that help leaders turn intention into habit. Our approach draws on evidence from flow theory, motivation science, neurobiology, and real-world practice with teams across various industries and sizes. Visit [bekokoro.com](https://www.bekokoro.com/) to learn more. **Join the Kokoro community** This is our first of 4 gatherings in 2026 - a chance to (re)connect with people making real change happen, and to introduce you to what we're building. If the culture and performance challenges you face resonate, we'd love to work with you. Looking forward to seeing you on 26 March. #Leadership #TeamDevelopment #SkillsThatMatter #LearningAndDevelopment #FutureOfWork #Vienna

Join me for a photo walk :) Spring is here and cherry trees have started blooming!

The event is free of charge but will be limited to max 10 people as it is meant as an opportunity to connect. It is suitable for all regardless of age/level/gear. IMPORTANT: These events are usually full - please only sign up if you intend to join. Cancelations less than 24h hours in advance are not allowed.

Weekly screenings from a large archive of many of the most significant, yet seldom seen and rarely accessible cinematic masterpieces in the history of film - from its earliest beginnings to the present day. Screenings are in original language, if English, or original language with English subtitles. Films are selected democratically on the inspiration of a brief pre-screening discussion. The selected title is typically a "neglected gem" that most of us discover together for the first time. Individual taste is not a criterion and all participants are expected to put the interests of the group as a whole above personal preference or prejudice. In this sense, the emphasis is on openness, exploration, and surprise. Each screening is followed by an in-depth group discussion, led and moderated by the curator. WARNNG: FilmStory is not just about watching movies! Rather, it's a socially responsible, intellectual engagement, involving an organic approach to group study of film language, philosophy, art, history, politics, and technology. In this sense, the film is always merely the current highlight in an explorative, ongoing group discussion. **FilmStory** is a members-only series that involves a closely knit community of cinephiles. Events take place every Sunday in a comfortable, private setting with limited capacity. Participation is reserved primarily for regular members, but we're always ready to make new friends! Non-regular members may request to meet the community and, upon acceptance as a "new joiner," are welcome to participate in one event, according to space availability. New joiners are asked to make a €6 member dues contribution in advance of the requested date. New members receive a message of confirmation and the address of the Living Room in 1080 Vienna upon receipt of their dues contribution. **FilmStory** is presented and hosted by **[KulturSalon Wien](https://www.meetup.com/kultursalon-wien/)**.

Come write with us at Cafe Pierre every Sunday at 18:00-20:00! A message from Shut Up & Write: "Shut Up & Write hosts free, in-person and online writing events for writers all over the world. Our goal is to ensure that every writer—regardless of genre or skill level—has access to the resources, community, and accountability that they need to be successful in their personal writing goals." And what this looks like at our event: We chat and give short introductions to what we are working on at 18:00, then start writing at 18:15. Though we try to start on dot, being late isn't a problem—just find a spot and get to work! We write until 20:00 and then discuss how our writing went. From fiction to non-fiction, academic papers to poetry, applications to work-related writing—anything goes! Nothing is needed except for you to bring whatever is need to get stuff done, i.e. laptop, headphones, pen and paper, and so on. Optional socialising may happen before 18:00 and after 20:00, or you may choose to use this time to get some more done! Please do order something from the café (drink, meal, dessert, etc.) so as to keep us in their good graces!

## [GET TICKETS HERE!!!](https://www.eventbrite.at/e/scriptless-in-seattle-unscripted-improv-comedy-show-thecomedypub-tickets-1979235165660?aff=MeetUp) Unscripted, musical improv comedy straight from the USA! Scriptless in Seattle brings audience-driven chaos to Vienna. ## 🎤 About the Show **Scriptless in Seattle** is a high-energy, completely unscripted improv comedy show touring from the United States — and every single performance is created live, on the spot, with the audience. Often compared to *Whose Line Is It Anyway?*, Scriptless delivers a fast-paced evening of improvised scenes, musical numbers, and spontaneous madness where **nothing is planned and everything is possible**. The cast performs without scripts, cues, or safety nets — relying entirely on audience suggestions to shape the show. No two performances are ever the same, making each night a one-of-a-kind comedy experience. Some audience members will even be invited **onto the stage**, becoming part of the action and helping create moments that will never happen again. ## 🎶 What to Expect 🎭 Completely improvised comedy scenes 🎵 Live musical improv and audience-inspired songs 😂 Fast, clever, and unpredictable humor 🎤 Direct audience interaction and volunteer participation 🎩 A sharp, playful cast performing in classic tuxedos Whether you’re watching from your seat or suddenly finding yourself part of the show, Scriptless in Seattle guarantees big laughs, surprises, and unforgettable moments. ## 🎙 Meet the Cast ### **Justin Folger** Justin is the group manager and emcee of Scriptless in Seattle. He has never seen *Sleepless in Seattle* (ironically), but he somewhat relates to the title — just not the Seattle part. Justin has performed improv across the United States, Canada, and Europe, and doesn’t plan to stop until he’s done improv **in space**. ### **James Trombka** James has been performing improv since high school and truly believes in performing “without a net.” When he’s not on stage, he works as an Accessibility Specialist at Kent State University. His favorite improv game is *Hollywood Director*, and outside comedy he enjoys theater, photography, kayaking, and moonlit beach walks. 📸 Instagram: **@jtromdawg** ### **Charlie Hubbell** Charlie is the “music hippie” of Scriptless in Seattle. A music teacher from Ohio, he can turn anything — from a tuba to a tin can — into an instrument. He loves musical improv games, especially *Irish Drinking Song*. Charlie’s roots stretch from North Carolina to Vermont… and kind of New Hampshire too. ## 🎯 Who Is This Show For? ✔️ Fans of improv comedy ✔️ Lovers of *Whose Line Is It Anyway?* ✔️ Anyone who enjoys musical comedy ✔️ Groups of friends looking for a fun night out ✔️ Couples searching for a unique date night ✔️ Audiences who love being part of the show If you like comedy that’s spontaneous, interactive, and completely unpredictable — this show is for you. ## 🍻 About the Venue – The Comedy Pub **The Comedy Pub** is Vienna’s home for international stand-up and improv comedy. With an intimate stage, full bar, and lively atmosphere, it’s the perfect venue for an interactive improv show like Scriptless in Seattle. 📍 Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Vienna 🚇 U4 Kettenbrückengasse ## 📅 Event Details 📆 **Date:** Friday, March 27th, 2026 🚪 **Doors open:** 20:30 🎤 **Show starts:** 21:00 ⏱ **Duration:** approx. 90 minutes 🗣 **Language:** English 🎟 **Tickets:** Available online 💺 Seating is limited – arrive early for the best seats! ## 💥 Why You Shouldn’t Miss It • A fully unscripted comedy show from the USA • Every performance is unique • Live musical improv • Direct audience participation • A rare chance to see touring American improv comedy in Vienna ### 🎟 **Scriptless in Seattle – Live Improvised Comedy** **March 27th\, 2026 \| The Comedy Pub\, Vienna**  #ScriptlessInSeattle #ImprovComedy #UnscriptedComedy #LiveImprov #ComedyVienna #TheComedyPub #EnglishComedyVienna #ImprovisedComedy #MusicalImprov #ViennaEvents #ComedyNightVienna #LiveComedyAustria #InteractiveComedy #WhoseLineStyle #ComedyTour #USComedy #ViennaNightlife

Dear artists, We continue our special Sunday sessions with Maja themed session! Our amazing female model will have same poses naked and dressed to give a chance to study anatomy and drapings of the same pose! It’s ideal for painting! See all there!

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!
