Succeeding with Transformation
**!IMPORTANT!!** You must sign up with your real name and mail through an external page, as Meetup does not support that.

## **Succeeding with Transformation**
**Change, fatigue, resistance - and how managing complexity helps us**
**BOOK YOUR SPOT HERE: [TicketTailor](https://www.tickettailor.com/events/pawelernestolchowik/2010630) (it's free!)**
We're inviting you to a full-day event focused on a question many organisations struggle with: **Why do so many transformations stall - even when the intent is good and sound?**
This event will explore **how to succeed with transformation** in environments shaped by uncertainty, interdependencies, and ongoing change. Rather than treating transformation as a one-off initiative, we’ll look at it through a **complexity lens** - as something that unfolds over time, affects people differently, and rarely follows a linear *path*.
Throughout the day, we will explore topics such as:
* change fatigue and why “just one more initiative” often backfires
* resistance to change - not as a problem to remove, but as a signal to understand
* the limits of traditional change management approaches
* what complexity thinking adds to strategy, transformation, and leadership
* practical perspectives that help leaders navigate change more sustainably
While individual sessions may differ in focus, all contributions will connect to a shared theme: **what helps transformation succeed in complex, adaptive systems**.
This is a **save-the-date / early invitation**.
More details about speakers, agenda, and format will follow.
If you work with strategy, transformation, or large-scale change - and are curious about approaches that go beyond simple playbooks - we invite you to **book your time and join the conversation**.
🎤 Follow us on LinkedIn, we’ll be announcing more speakers soon, links to our profiles are below
See you there!

Coffee Talk
Fulfillment. Joy. – Do you know what it is? Do you feel it now?
Many of us are living lives that have “just sort of happened”. We had a dream, a vision (maybe we still do) for what we wanted our lives to look like. Somewhere along the way, life took over and something else ended up happening. We made decisions, took a turn down a path, and now our life isn’t what we thought it would be.
Or we’re living someone else’s life. Maybe it’s what our parent’s wanted for us. What we believe our partner or a potential partner might want. Or maybe it’s what we believe we need to do and have to be happy. I was one of these people. My life checked all the boxes for what I thought I needed in order to be happy. And still, I wasn’t.
Join me for a coffee talk on what it means to live a Life By Design. Where your choices are deliberate and based on your authentic, true self. What you have to let go off to achieve this (hint: the notion that vulnerability is a weakness and feelings of fear and guilt) and who you will become in the process.

Shut Up & Write!® in Amager
**Co-working for writers in Amager!**
Join us for an hour of focused writing time. All writers and all experience levels are welcome and don’t worry, no one will see what you've written. This session is about getting your writing done and meeting other writers in the area.
We meet in this lovely spacious café, chilled out, usually not very busy at this time, with an on-site bakery of delicious pastries. Once everyone is here and settled, I will lead a quick introduction, and then set the timer for our quiet and focused writing session.
After the hour is up feel free to chat / take off / keep writing if you're on a roll. We often talk about our successes and challenges as writers, and it can be a great way to learn from eachother.
**A note about the format**
We don’t host critiques or readings. These events are a safe space for writers of all skill levels and genres to work on their craft, so no one will read or critique your writing.
For our full event schedule, visit [https://shutupwrite.com](https://shutupwrite.com)
**Practical Details:**
WiFi name / password: Kasada / haveaniceday
Travel / Parking info: Kasada is just a few minutes walk from Lergravsparken Metro Station.
We've reserved the large round table in the main room, with power outlets if you need one.
Venue Guidelines: Please thank our hosts by purchasing something.
Shut Up & Write!™ Copenhagen
Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at our Copenhagen Shut Up & Write! sessions.
Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, résumé, melody, poem, or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done.
SCHEDULE:
- 15 minutes of hellos and getting settled; maybe some quick intros.
- Then, the timer starts! : writing for 1 hour.
- After the hour is up... chat / take off / keep writing, if you're on a roll.
OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens once the hour of writing is complete. Writing can be very solitary... connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing.
It's best to be on time, but BEING LATE IS ALSO OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check in with us after the session. (We’ll be the ones with the small Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
What Should I Bring?
Whatever you need to be able to write!
Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the cafe’s overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons.

Azure Durable Functions on the move
Azure Skåne invites you to yet another community evening — hosted on‑site at **Knowit, Malmö**.
***Please note that this is not our regular venue, so double‑check the location before you arrive.***
Agenda:
* 17:15 - 17:45 Meet and Greet
* 17:45 - 18:30 Session
* 18:30 - 20:00 Food and Mingle
"**Azure Durable Functions on the move**"
Many companies rely on enterprise route-planning platforms that promise optimisation, flexibility, and scalability. In reality, they often become expensive black boxes that are hard to adapt, slow to evolve, and difficult to operate.
In this talk, we will share the story of how our team replaced an enterprise route planning solution with our own system built on Azure Durable Functions.
Instead of fighting the limitations of a monolithic product, we designed a cloud-native orchestration engine that is simpler, faster to iterate on, and easier to understand. By leveraging Durable Functions, we implemented complex routing workflows, parallel processing, and long-running optimizations without introducing heavy infrastructure.
This talk is not about theoretical architecture. It is s a practical story of replacing enterprise software with a cloud-native approach, and what worked (and what didn’t) along the way.
If you’re working with Azure, serverless architectures, or complex workflow orchestration, this session will give you real-world insights and ideas you can apply to your own systems.
Speakers:
• **Afolabi Abass**. Engineering Manager @Mover
• **Yegor Lopatin**. Director of Engineering @Mover

UXDX Community Copenhagen: When Interfaces Talk, When They Don’t
**Important:**
* Please sign up on the following website to complete your sign up: https://uxdx.com/community/community-copenhagen-2026-03-18/
An in-person series of meetups focused on helping product & engineering teams in Copenhagen bridge the gap between UX, Product, Design, and Dev, and to build better products faster, together.
**Agenda:**
**16:45 – 17:00 Registration & Networking**
**17:00 – 17:10 Welcome, intro to UXDX and Ambassador - Tasha**
**17:10 – 17:25 Host Introduction - Kristoffer (Famly) + Q&A on Famly**
**17:25 – 17:50 Talk 1 (Stefani Vujic) + Q&A**
**17:50 – 18:20 Pizza & Networking**
**18:30 – 18:55 Talk 2 (Mareike Bonitz) + Q&A**
**18:55 - 19:15 Closing & Networking**
## **✨ Talks**
**Talk by** **Stefani Vujic - The fall and rise of conversational content design.**
These days, everyone wants to be conversational. E-commerce, medtech, fintech, all the techs. If you’re a corporate brand, it seems like you’ll do anything to not sound like it. Instead, a trend to “level with our customers” and “speak our users’ language” appears to dominate.
In this talk, we'll examine why one of UX writing's favourite frenemies is so devilishly difficult to execute well. Spoiler: Real conversations are spontaneous, situational and physical – basically everything computers are not. So when should interfaces chat, when should they shut up and how do we tell the difference?
**Talk by Mareike Bonitz - How to make your whole organization understand and support Product work**
In this talk, the audience will receive concrete examples of bringing Product principles closer to other teams. How can we make the whole company be more data-driven, validate their hypotheses before executing, understand the why, work more cross-functionally? The talk should inspire and give a hands on toolbox for bringing more Product sense to everyone.
## **About UXDX**
UXDX helps teams shift from project based delivery to empowered, autonomous product teams. We host global conferences and over 150 free community events each year, bringing together UX, Product, Design and Development practitioners to share how real teams build better products faster.

From Web Forms to Web Components - Burton Smith
**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.
