CĂłmo Evoluciona Producto con la IA
**ÂĄQuerid@s [#ProductPeople](https://www.linkedin.com/feed/hashtag/?keywords=productpeople&highlightedUpdateUrns=urn%3Ali%3Aactivity%3A7176297775532302336)!**
Este **miércoles 18 de marzo** nos reunimos en Accenture para conversar sobre cómo la inteligencia artificial estå transformando cómo hacemos las cosas y el rol de quienes trabajamos en producto.
La pregunta no es si la IA impactarå nuestro trabajo. La pregunta es: **¿qué tipo de profesionales necesitamos ser en este nuevo contexto?**
En esta sesiĂłn tendremos a dos speakers de lujo:
đ **[SebastiĂĄn Tonel](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sebastian-tonel-a2124522/)** â Delivery Manager de Productos Digitales en Accenture. Seba es lĂder en tecnologĂa y delivery con mĂĄs de 15 años construyendo y escalando productos digitales en industrias como la aĂ©rea, automotriz, bancaria y minera. Su foco estĂĄ en cerrar la brecha entre visiĂłn y ejecuciĂłn, promoviendo autonomĂa, claridad estratĂ©gica y culturas de aprendizaje. Nos compartirĂĄ su mirada sobre cĂłmo la IA redefine la relaciĂłn entre producto, negocio y tecnologĂa, y quĂ© capacidades se vuelven crĂticas para crear valor sostenible en esta nueva era.
đ **[Daniela Monje](https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniela-monje-ojeda/?locale=en_US)** â Ex NotCo, Nubox y Tenpo
Dani ha trabajado liderando equipos de producto en entornos de alto crecimiento y transformaciĂłn digital. Con experiencia en compañĂas que han integrado IA en el corazĂłn de su propuesta de valor, compartirĂĄ aprendizajes sobre cĂłmo cambia la toma de decisiones, la experimentaciĂłn, el discovery y el diseño organizacional cuando la inteligencia artificial deja de ser una feature y se convierte en infraestructura.
đĄAlgunos temas que hablaremos durante y despuĂ©s de las charlas:
* CĂłmo evoluciona el rol de PM cuando los equipos pueden prototipar, analizar y automatizar con IA.
* Qué pasa con discovery, delivery y estrategia.
* Nuevas tensiones: autonomĂa vs. control, velocidad vs. gobernanza.
* Qué habilidades humanas se vuelven mås importantes (y no menos).

Recruiting Virtual Mental Health Group Leaders!
We are recruiting new group leaders for virtual men's groups! Our primary groups are outdoor movement groups, but we are launching virtual groups for the state of Ohio and beyond and the groups will move outside in the spring, creating room for men's groups, women's groups and coed groups all over the country.
Read below to learn about our groups and click the links at the bottom to apply.
### **What is an Outdoor Empowerment Group?**
Our Outdoor Movement & Community Empowerment Groups are simple, guided experiences designed to help people reconnect with nature, themselves, and others. We combine some form of movement (hike, walk, run, bike, yoga, workout) and meaningful conversation within a simple community circle to create a space where individuals can support each other while prioritizing mental and physical well-being.
Whether youâre seeking stress relief, personal growth, or community, our groups offer everyone a unique and welcoming environment.
## **Why Join?**
* **Improve Mental & Physical Well-Being** â Movement, nature, and supportive conversations reduce stress and promote balance.
* **Feel Less Alone** â Build genuine connections with like-minded people in a safe, welcoming space.
* **Gain Clarity & Perspective** â Step outside daily routines and into a space designed for personal growth and reflection.
## **The Ideal Group Leader**
The ideal group leader
* Has a born-in passion for mental health, movement, connecting with nature and building community.
* Has 5 extra hours per week to dedicate to a meaningful cause for at least one year. Yes, you can leave any organization at any time and we can also ask you to leave, but we are building with legacy in mind and we need people who can commit and be ALL IN on this mission to build with us.
* Is independently financially stable with the ability to volunteer with no expectation of pay. This is a deeply beautiful journey of service that all participants commit to at Speak Your Mind.
* An ability to manage groups with high emotional intelligence and desire for human connection.
* An ability to self-motivate and market/promote their group on Facebook and other social platforms.
* Nature informed therapy or clinical therapists/psychologists a plus.
## **Our Impact**

Since launching, we have helped thousands find support, connection, and healing through our Outdoor Movement Groups. 100% of participants surveyed have reported:
* A noticeable improvement in mental clarity and emotional well-being.
* An increase in social connection and a sense of belonging.
* Said they would return again.
We believe mental health should be accessible, community-driven, and rooted in nature. Join us and take the first step toward a more connected, grounded, and supported version of yourself.
### **Why Our Groups are Donation-Based**
Our Outdoor Movement Groups are made possible through a donation-based model. This approach allows us to keep our events accessible to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances, while also ensuring that we can continue expanding our reach. Itâs a great way to pay it forward and support the growth of this beautiful mission!
Every contribution helps us:
* **Cover Essential Costs** â Donations allow us to pay essential legal, marketing, insurance, and admin costs as well as nourish the important people who run the organization.
* **Grow Our Mission** â With your support, we can bring these healing experiences to thousands more people in the future and execute our long term plan to expand across the USA, affecting up to 500,000 people per year.
By choosing to contribute, youâre not just leading an eventâyouâre helping build a mental health movement that supports long-term well-being and connection for all during a severe mental health epidemic.

We believe that emotionally mature, powerful, compassionate, and purpose-driven men will help heal some of societyâs deepest wounds.

Using Philosophy to Cope with Current Events
So this month's prompt is more general. I think we can all agree that we are living in "unique" times that require coping skills. I think that one role and/or purpose of philosophy is to help us deal with our daily lives and our "unique" times. So, let's share our feelings and thoughts about which philosopher/philosophy we turn to in order to deal with our crazy events. Who/what helps you stay focused in your daily life and helps you sleep at night. I find that Stoicism with a little philosophical pessimism mixed in goes a long way in helping me deal with what I see as very destructive, fearful and mean spirited public policies at both the state and federal levels. Hope to see you on March 28th!
