Service Management

You know those spontaneous chats with a colleague by the water cooler or with an acquaintance you bumped into in town, where strangers gather around a random topic — and somehow, something sticks? A thought, a story, a spark that gets you wondering, reflecting, and feeling a little more alive? ✨ That’s the spirit of our monthly coffee gathering, **A Cup of Serendipity** — a reminder that connection can’t be scripted, only sparked with good company and good chemistry 🪄. **Join us for a morning of spontaneous conversation and connection!** There’s no topic, no script — just space for ideas and stories to flow freely, shaped by whoever’s present. The only thing planned is the time and place. The rest is up to us, where the conversation takes us. To keep the circle casual and intimate — a space where everyone can speak and listen — we’re limiting the number of participants. So please RSVP early to secure your spot!

Viele Organisationen haben agile Teams eingeführt, Rollen definiert und Transformationen angestossen – und trotzdem das Gefühl, dass irgendetwas nicht stimmt. Entscheidungen dauern zu lang. Einzelne Personen tragen zu viel. Und die Energie im Team bleibt hinter den Erwartungen zurück. **Ari Byland,** Organisationsentwickler und Autor des Buchs «Wirksame Muster für lernende Organisationen», zeigt, warum das klassische Führungsmodell bei steigender Komplexität strukturell an seine Grenzen stösst – und was ein anderer Ansatz leisten kann. Im Mittelpunkt steht das [Co-Leadership-Modell](https://valuetalks.ch/co-leadership): Führungsverantwortung auf drei gleichwertige Rollen verteilt – Product Owner, Teamcoach und People Experience. Nicht als theoretisches Konstrukt, sondern als gelebtes Muster aus der Schweizer Praxis. Die Session gibt Orientierung, stellt Thesen zur Diskussion und lässt Raum für den Austausch mit anderen, die ähnliche Fragen kennen. In Zusammenarbeit mit dem SwissICT und AarauImpact.

## 🤝 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.

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!

**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.
