In the previous meetup, we discussed a difficult question: **Will AI replace Scrum Masters and Agile Coaches?** This session builds on that conversation. Instead of focusing on what might disappear, we’ll focus on: **What will become more valuable.** 🧠 **What you’ll learn** We’ll explore the shift from: * Why facilitation and process knowledge are no longer enough * The shift from team-level focus to system-level thinking * How organizational design becomes a key capability * What skills will make you stand out in the coming years Grounded in Org Topologies™, we’ll look at: * Why many roles operate in **output-driven, incomplete setups** * The shift toward **outcome-oriented, complete mandates** * Why organizational design becomes a **core capability** * How AI amplifies this shift rather than causing it 🔑 **Core idea** The future is not about becoming a better Scrum Master. It’s about becoming someone who can: * see the organization as a system * identify structural constraints * redesign how work, learning, and decision-making happen 🎤 **Format** * \~30 min talk * \~30 min Q&A and discussion * \~30+ min Networking 👥 **Who this is for** * Scrum Masters & Agile Coaches seeking their next evolution * People struggling to create impact in their current setup * Leaders interested in system-level change * Anyone thinking about their next career step 💡 **Why join** Many people feel that “something is changing.” This session helps you **name the shift** — and position yourself within it. Btw: This meetup prepares the ground for a special session with the author of *10xOrg* in June.

Welcome to the PyData Berlin May meetup! We would like to welcome you all starting from 18:00. There will be food and drinks. The talks begin around 18.30 and the doors will close at 18:45. **Make sure to arrive on time!** Please provide your first and last name for the registration because this is required for the venue's entry policy. If you cannot attend, please cancel your spot so others are able to join as the space is limited. **Host**: **GetYourGuide** is excited to welcome you to this month's version of PyData. \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* The Lineup for the evening **Talk 1: Text2SQL in the Wild — Agentic Workflows & Semantic Models on Customer Data** **Abstract**: Translating a business user's natural language question into a reliable SQL query has huge value for business analysts, but doing it accurately at scale, on messy enterprise data, for complex queries, is incredibly difficult. This talk walks through a production Text2SQL system built on four pillars: semantic models built on customer data, RAG-based semantic search, an agentic verification and correction loop for building the SQL, and an evaluation framework for the entire process. Raw schema information is not enough for text2sql to work. Rather, thorough documentation including business metrics, synonyms, and qualified example queries, are required. We'll cover how to automate this documentation pipeline by mining query logs, generating descriptions with LLMs, and organizing everything into a knowledge graph and vector search index. From there, we'll dive into the agentic flow that takes a user question and iteratively generates, validates, and fixes SQL against a live database. The agentic framework analyses syntax errors and execution results to help it fix the SQL. Participants will leave with practical takeaways on RAG architecture for structured data, agentic retry patterns, and how to think about evaluation for Text2SQL systems in production. **Speaker**: Oren Matar **Bio**: Oren Matar is a principal data scientist and algorithms developer, with a background in social sciences and Bayesian methods. He specializes in NLP and time series forecasting, as well as agentic methods for data retrieval and processing. **Talk 2: Interpreting and Communicating Statistical Models** **Abstract**: Extracting actionable insights from complex statistical models remains a challenge, as raw coefficients are often uninterpretable due to nonlinearity, interactions, or hierarchical structures. This talk introduces a unified framework for model interpretation based on the principles of the Marginal Effects project ([https://marginaleffects.com/](https://marginaleffects.com/)). We move away from internal model parameters toward quantities of interest, such as marginal effects and adjusted predictions that translate statistical output into the "natural language" of the data. We will demonstrate these concepts in Python using the Bambi interpret module, showcasing a seamless workflow for interpreting Bayesian models built on PyMC. The audience will learn how to use the four primary interpretative pillars: Predictions, Comparisons, Slopes, and Marginal Means to compute average marginal effects and visualize conditional relationships. By the end of this session, you will be equipped to turn sophisticated GLMs and multi-level models into clear, rigorous narratives that are easily communicated to stakeholders. **Speaker**: Juan Orduz **Bio**: Juan is a Mathematician (Ph.D. Humboldt Universität zu Berlin) and Principal Data Scientist at PyMC Labs. He is interested in interdisciplinary applications of mathematical methods. In particular, time series analysis, Bayesian methods, and causal inference. **Lightning talks** There will be slots for 2-3 Lightning Talks (3-5 Minutes for each) between the two main talks. Kindly let us know if you would like to present something :) \*\*\* NumFOCUS **Code of Conduct** THE SHORT VERSION Be kind to others. Do not insult or put down others. Behave professionally.
