PO Club #2 – AI, now what? powered by SQUER
PO Club #2 – AI, now what? powered by SQUER
**Our second Product Owner Club is coming up and this time we’re diving into one of the biggest shifts currently reshaping our roles as product people: AI.** We’re excited to be **sponsored by** **SQUER** **📍 [Althanstraße 4/3/63, 1090 Wien](https://maps.app.goo.gl/zysnKBZEobcA2pHz5)** **Please scroll down to SQUER or use the search function to ring.** **Thank you for helping the product community come together!** **Agenda:** 🕕 18:00 — Doors open & welcome 🎤 18:30 — Session #1: Alexander Schwingenschrot 🎤 19:15 — Session #2: Maurizio Rinder & Julian Tandler 🍕 20:00 — Networking with drinks & pizza **Session #1 by Alexander Schwingenschrot – Senior Consultant / AI-Manager @ adesso Austria GmbH** **The Product Owner as an "Intellectual Tourist"? How Psychological Safety Rescues Our Critical Thinking from AI.** You know the feeling: The backlog is overflowing, pressure is high, and suddenly GenAI generates your user stories, acceptance criteria, and market analyses in seconds. Sounds like a dream, right? The ticket is ready, let the sprint begin. But what happens when we switch our thinking to "autopilot"? We risk becoming mere "middle managers of our own thoughts," outsourcing the hard work of critical thinking to an algorithm. AI makes us incredibly fast—but without true psychological safety within the team to challenge the machine (and each other), we degrade into mere rubber-stampers. That’s not just dangerous for the product; it fundamentally alters the core of what Product Ownership is all about. In his talk, Alexander breaks down: * why AI becomes an innovation killer without a culture that embraces failure (Automation Bias), * what the "Intellectual Tourist" concept actually means for your daily Product Discovery, and * how you as a PO can maintain "Meaningful Human Control" without sacrificing the speed of AI. **Session #2 by Maurizio Rinder, Lead Product Engineer @ SQUER & Julian Tandler, Principal Consultant Product Management @ SQUER** **What If the Answer to Every Feature Debate Was "Let's Find Out This Week"? A PM's Guide to AI in 2026** You know the drill: Three stakeholders, three opinions, no data. Everyone argues about what to build next, and two months later only a handful of people used the feature. But what if "let's just find out" was a real answer? When AI makes building cheap, you can stop debating and start testing. That's not just a new tool in your PM toolkit, it's a structural shift in what the role is about. In his talk, * Julian breaks down what's actually changing, and goes hands-on with real examples, * Before Maurizio makes the case why this redefines what it means to be a developer, too. **Like last time, the sessions will be hands-on and interactive. There will be space to discuss, challenge, and exchange with fellow colleagues.** We’re looking forward to seeing familiar faces and welcoming new ones to the community. **Connect**... get to learn peers from different industries. **Learn**... how other Product Leaders deal with different situations. **Profit**... from shared experiences and thrive even more in your role. **Please be fair and only click “attend” on Meetup if you’re truly planning to join, so we can plan foods and drinks accordingly.** Last time we had a **show-rate of 92%**, let's keep this up 😃 **Best regards, Alex & Miriam**

Thursday Co-Working Session in Vienna – Get It Done Together (1–5PM)
**You start, but don't finish. We help you get it done.** Join our [WhatsApp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/K6LidaoQhe16wZ0Se9pNM6?mode=gi_t). Follow us on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/nocrastinationclub/) You just haven’t been able to follow through. You start things, lose momentum and find yourself starting over again. You’re not alone. Most people get support at the beginning. And applause at the end. But the part that actually matters? The middle. The quiet, repetitive, sometimes frustrating part where nothing feels exciting, and everything depends on showing up. **That’s where we are.** At NoCrastination, we don’t meet for hype. We meet to **show up and finish something, together.** Not perfectly. Not magically. Just consistently. **What this really is** This is a space for people who are: * building something * figuring things out * or simply trying to stay on track **without doing it alone** You don’t need to be an entrepreneur. You just need something you want to move forward. **What happens here** You bring something you’ve been putting off. We sit down together. We focus. And you leave with something done. That’s it. And that’s everything. **Why people keep coming back** * “I finally follow through on what I plan” * “I leave with real progress every time” **Time and Location** 🕐 **Time:** 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM 📍 **Location:** Jaz in the City – Ground Floor long table Windmühlgasse 28, 1060 Vienna 💻 **Bring:** Your laptop, journal, or anything you’ve been avoiding **Hosted by**: NoCrastination. See you across from the ground floor bar ✨ you will see us sitting at the long table with our laptops ☕ Please do order something from the bar, so as to keep us in their good graces! Espresso: €3.5, Americano: €4.5, Latte: €5.5. Donations to support the community are voluntary and welcome. **How it works** * **13:00–13:30 → arrival + intro + set your task** * **3 × 45’ focus sessions + 15’ breaks** * Quiet focus, optional social breaks * Drop in anytime, stay as long as you want No pressure. Just structure + presence. **First time joining?** Look for **Vlad** near the ground floor bar. We’ll get you settled 💛 **This space is for you if…** * You keep starting but don’t finish * You work alone and feel stuck * You want structure without pressure * You don’t want to do this alone anymore **What you’ll get** Not motivation. Not a productivity hack. **You’ll get: ONE THING DONE.** And then you come back, and do it again. **This is how it starts** You don’t need to commit to anything big. Just come once. Pick one thing. Finish it. We’ll be there. **Stay connected** Join our [WhatsApp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/K6LidaoQhe16wZ0Se9pNM6?mode=gi_t) Follow us on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/nocrastinationclub/) This is a space you can keep coming back to. **You’re not behind.** **You’re just in the middle.** And you don’t have to go through it alone. You are one of us.

Doing Well, But Still Asking “Is This It?”
Doing Well, But Still Asking “Is This It?”
Things can look good on paper — steady work, progress, stability — and still feel strangely flat on the inside. No crisis. No breakdown. Just a quiet question: *Is this it?* This workshop is for people who are functioning well, but sense that something doesn’t fully line up. Together, we’ll explore what psychologists call the ***success–fulfillment gap***: the difference between external success and inner experience. Through a few guided reflection exercises, you’ll learn how to better distinguish these signals in your own life — **not to make big decisions**, but to gain clarity. No coaching. No therapy. No pressure to change anything. Just a thoughtful space to reflect and recalibrate. 🌱 **What to expect 🧭** * A short, accessible introduction to the **success–fulfillment gap** * Simple, guided reflection exercises * A calm, structured space to think and discuss in pairs You’ll leave with a clearer sense of how **success and fulfillment show up differently** in your own experience. **Who should attend 👥** This workshop is for you if: * you’re working or building something and generally doing “okay” * you value reflection, but don’t want therapy or motivation talks * you’ve had moments of thinking “*Is this really it?*” — without being in crisis * you’re curious about purpose, clarity, and inner orientation You don’t need to feel successful, stuck, or lost to attend — just open to reflection. **Logistics 🗓️** * **Cost**: Free of charge * **Where**: Impact Hub Vienna, [Lindengasse 56, 1070 Wien](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x476d078cbc5cf79b:0x3e9197850789a772?sa=X&ved=1t:8290&ictx=111) * **When: Thursday, April 16th, 2026, 18:00 CET** * **Duration**: 90 minutes ⚠️ **Limited to 14 participants** to keep the space focused and personal.

Vortrag: Kleidung als Zeichensystem – What's Missing? (Deutsch)
Vortrag: Kleidung als Zeichensystem – What's Missing? (Deutsch)
Wir besuchen gemeinsam einen Vortrag im Queer Museum Vienna. Der Vortrag ist Teil der Reihe „What’s Missing?“: Kunsthistorikerinnen und Künstlerinnen beleuchten darin Erscheinungsformen von Queerness aus verschiedenen Kulturen und historischen Epochen – von der westlichen Renaissance über die jugoslawische Kunst der 1970er bis zur zeitgenössischen schwarzafrikanischen Kunst. Kleidung als kulturelles Konstrukt von Geschlecht, Macht und Ordnung – Referentin Anjelika Spöth nimmt uns mit auf eine kritische Reise durch Kleidung als Zeichensystem: Wie bestimmt das, was wir tragen, wie Körper gelesen, bewertet und reguliert werden? Und wie wirken diese historischen Konstrukte bis heute in unserem Alltag nach? 🤝 Treffpunkt: 18:15 Uhr im Eingangsbereich des Museums (drinnen)

Science Meets Mindfulness – From Anger to Compassion
Science Meets Mindfulness – From Anger to Compassion
**Pause. Sense. Feel. Transform.** **Anger, rage, and frustration are part of being human. Yet when left unchecked, they can hijack our nervous system, cloud communication, and strain our relationships.** **This two-part experiential workshop series offers a grounded, science based path to meeting anger with awareness; and transforming it into clarity, empathy, and compassion.** **Blending neuroscience, mindfulness practices, embodied movement, and mindful communication tools, we explore how anger affects the body and brain; and how it can become a powerful gateway to self understanding and deeper connection with others.** **Through guided meditation, reflective journaling, gentle movement, visualisation, pair and group exercises, you’ll learn how to rechannel stress, regulate your nervous system, and engage with conflict in a more conscious and compassionate way.** **Part 1: Rechanneling Stress and Understanding Our Needs** **We all experience anger and frustration, when we feel disrespected, unheard, or blocked from reaching our goals. These emotions can feel overwhelming and have a strong impact on our nervous system and well-being. How can we navigate these moments without being overtaken by them?** **In this first workshop, we focus on understanding anger from the inside out. We explore how emotional hijacking and chronic stress work in the brain and body, and how our internal narratives and unmet needs fuel reactive patterns. With curiosity** **and compassion, we begin to transform anger into self-awareness and self-care.** **You’ll explore:** **● The neuroscience of anger, rage, stress response, and emotional hijacking** **● How bodily sensations and internal narratives shape anger** **● Identifying the feelings and unmet needs behind frustration** **● How to rechannel anger through breath, visualisation, and gentle movement** **● Using mindful self-talk and mantras to express needs** **● Cultivating self-compassion as a foundation for clarity and regulation** **The Mindful BAse x Villa Vida** **Where science meets mindfulness – for awareness, connection, and community.** **At The Mindful BAse, we believe that mindfulness is not only a personal practice, but also a powerful way to strengthen relationships, communities, and our connection with our environment. Founded in Vienna in 2025, our mission is simple: to bring people together,** **foster well-being, and cultivate a community rooted in awareness, kindness, compassion and** **respect.** **Through our collaboration with Villa Vida, we are excited to present a series of science-based mindfulness workshops designed to encourage meaningful dialogue, nurture learning and reflection for supporting the local queer community. We create spaces where** **ancient practices meet modern insights, offering sessions that combine yoga, meditation, neuroscience, communication tools in a safe, inclusive and inspiring space. Each workshop invites you to slow down, connect, and learn practical ways to care for yourself and others – grounded in both science and lived experience.** **All identities, bodies, and levels of experience are welcome.** **[https://themindfulbase.com](https://themindfulbase.com/)** **[https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-mindful-base](https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-mindful-base)** **[https://www.instagram.com/the_mindful_base](https://www.instagram.com/the_mindful_base)** **Registration:** **[https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSckePQuhI-pydwGvKms1btW6JQHxnBvpX20HpkyrxGpniBW7A/viewform](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSckePQuhI-pydwGvKms1btW6JQHxnBvpX20HpkyrxGpniBW7A/viewform)**

Hi Running fellows, Whether you’re a walker, new to running, a semi-pro, a marathonist or a sprint star - if you want to start your weekend in an active way and enjoy the outdoors in lovely surroundings with a fun, international and multilingual group of people, you are welcome to join us! Every Saturday at 9:30 am, we meet, we run, in the magnificent Schönbrunn park, and then we go for breakfast. Want to discuss politics or the best recipes for banana pancakes? Not a problem. Not feeling social? Tune out with your earbuds - we can talk over breakfast. We are casual. You can be too. What to expect: Start by meeting Adrian, Ali, Liz, Paul and Sonia on-time at 9:30am outside the Schönbrunn U-Bahn stop (exit Grünbergstraße). (Coordinates: 48.1858130, 16.3200640) From there, we walk to the side park entrance where the “running” part begins. The important thing is that you run at your own pace. Typically, small groups of people will run at the same pace as you, so you never have to walk/run alone :) We finish one hour later, at about 10:40am, reconvening just inside the Hietzinger Tor exit. (Coordinates: 48.1858825, 16.3032647). From there, we’re off to breakfast! Breakfast Details: Anker bakery opposite the U4 Hietzing station and depending on the weather, grab something for a picnic in Schönbrunn park, or hang out in the bakery. If you missed us earlier, you can always go there around 10:45. We are a fun group of runners who don’t take things too seriously. We meet, chat, RUN, stretch, chat, EAT and we hang out over a beer every now and then. It's that easy. Please join us for breakfast after the run! The more the merrier. Typically we are 10-30 people, as not everyone who comes signs up on meetup. Important disclaimer: Please only run as much as you feel you can, considering the temperature, weather conditions, your own fitness etc... run and walk at your own pace as the organizers do not assume any liability for any injuries or health issues. Sonia, Adrian, Ali, Paul and Liz

Columbus Code & Coffee 85 @ Improving

The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? 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
