# CAMBIA-MENTI – PILOT ## Da Sogno a Visione **Workshop esperienziale di Coaching per Manager & Leader** 📍 Via Gaspare Rosales, 9, 20124 Milano MI 📅 14 aprile 🕒 18:30 – 20:30 👥 Numero limitato Ci sono momenti in cui la carriera funziona. Eppure qualcosa dentro non risuona più. Hai costruito competenze, responsabilità, riconoscimento. Ma emerge una domanda più profonda: **È davvero questa la direzione che voglio abitare?** CAMBIA-MENTI è un workshop esperienziale di 2 ore dedicato a Manager e Leader che stanno attraversando una soglia evolutiva. Non si tratta di cambiare lavoro. Si tratta di cambiare osservatore. Durante l’incontro lavoreremo su: ✔ Sogno vs Visione ✔ Linguaggio che limita vs linguaggio generativo ✔ Identità professionale in trasformazione ✔ Il Mandala della Visione ✔ Il primo passo concreto da compiere entro 72 ore Non teoria. Esperienza guidata, domande potenti, confronto autentico. Uscirai con: • Una Visione scritta • Una direzione più chiara • Un impegno concreto • Un nuovo modo di osservarti Il workshop sarà tenuto da **Loretta Stefano**, Mentore & Career Coach certificata ACC ICF, professionista con esperienza riconosciuta nell’ambito della formazione e del coaching e con quasi vent’anni nel settore finanziario e nella guida di team in contesti complessi. Un approccio che unisce esperienza manageriale, profondità e concretezza. *** ### Evento Pilota Questo è il primo workshop CAMBIA-MENTI in formato pilot. Per questo motivo il contributo di partecipazione è: **57 € invece di 97 €** Un investimento consapevole per dedicarti due ore di profondità e chiarezza. *** Se senti che non si tratta di “lasciare”, ma di andare verso, questo è il tuo momento. I posti sono limitati. Maggiori info sulla pagina web: https://www.lorettastefano.com/

The event is scheduled for **6:30 PM local Italian time**. The platform does not allow us to change the time zone, so we can only create events with the GMT time, thus you will see the invitation for 7:30 PM, but you definitely want to come earlier. It's a relaxed evening at The O'Connell Irish Pub, and run by Volodymyr. We have been running for 3.5 years in London and we are excited to now run our monthly events in Milan as well, welcoming new folks to the community. Whether you're a tech founder, an enthusiast, a budding entrepreneur, or simply curious about the tech scene, you'll fit right in. This isn't about panels or pitching, just good old-fashioned networking with like-minded people over a drink on a Thursday evening. Important information about the location and time. **It is in the ZTL zone**, so please do not come by car. Please use public transport or walk. **House Rules:** * Find Volodymyr to introduce yourself so we can welcome you properly. The pub knows we are coming, so you should be able to find us easily. * No hard selling or heavy pitching. This is a chill, friendly after-work get-together. * Not drinking? No worries! You're more than welcome to come hang out and enjoy the conversation. Mark your calendar and come down for some fun tech talk. See you there!

Mercoledì 15 aprile ci troviamo per il consueto aperitivo di Creative Hub: un momento informale per conoscere nuove persone che lavorano (o sono interessate a lavorare) nel mondo digital, creativo o tech a Milano. Questa serata avrà un leggero focus sull’intelligenza artificiale, ma senza talk, presentazioni o workshop. Il contesto è quello di sempre: un aperitivo rilassato in bar, dove si chiacchiera liberamente tra professionisti, freelance e appassionati del settore. Parleremo in modo spontaneo di come stiamo utilizzando le nuove tecnologie e l’AI nei nostri progetti, condividendo esperienze, strumenti e approcci in maniera informale. Se interessa, durante la serata condividerò anche il mio percorso recente su alcuni progetti realizzati con il supporto dell'iA: * Coinmeteor, un’app per iPhone già disponibile su App Store ( https://apps.apple.com/us/app/coinmeteor/id6751293529 ) * Un software per Mac ( https://ui.koby.studio/keys/ ) in arrivo nei prossimi giorni su App Store * Monster Candy, ( https://www.getmonstercandy.com ) un videogioco per iPhone attualmente in fase di test su Apple TestFlight Ci vediamo mercoledì alle 18:30 à l'Eroica Caffé in Viale Tunisia, 15 NB: L'evento è gratuito, si richiede almeno una consumazione per rispetto del locale che ci ospita. Se non ci trovate all’interno del bar, scrivete nella chat WhatsApp: https://chat.whatsapp.com/H1opsenXvwuFAJXYg2ydJF?mode=gi_t **\*\*\*\* IMPORTANTE \*\*\*\*** Per una questione organizzativa vi preghiamo di iscrivervi solo se siete certi di venire.
