Managing Teams, Stakeholders and Delivery in the GenAI Era
Ciao Pythonistas! 🐍
This month we shake things up with an incredible lineup. We have not one, not two, but three experienced developers who are now working as Engineering Managers, Heads of, or even VPs of Data, AI and Generative AI in large organisations.
Not only that, but we're changing the format. This time, rather than a talk, we will engage in a panel - with open QA from the public about their experience, challenges and perspectives.
Don't expect a one-sided panel: we will discuss themes ranging from data and AI governance, how to ship AI solutions that work in large enterprises and manage stakeholders, but also how to organise a team given how much GenAI and coding agents have changed the way we do our job.
**Anna Russo, VP of Data, ML & AI**
**Alberto Danese, Head of Data Science & Advanced Analytics @ Nexi**
**Marco Santoni, Data Platform and Engineering Manager @ TeamSystem**
**Anna Russo** is a Data & AI leader with 15 years of experience in Data Science applied to luxury, healthcare, e-commerce, travel and media industries. She holds a PhD in Computational Biology from the European School of Molecular Medicine, and previouslyI worked as a Data Scientist in London for companies like QuantumBlack/McKinsey, Channel4, Skyscanner & Gucci.
**Alberto Danese** is the Head of Data Science & Advanced Analytics at Nexi, where he oversees the design and production of AI/ML systems for the digital payments sector, leading four teams across analytics and engineering. He has over 15 years of experience in data science applied to financial services. He is a Kaggle Competitions Grandmaster and regularly shares projects and insights on ML, AI, and data systems through talks, open-source projects, and his blog, *All About Data*.
**Marco Santoni** is a Data Platform and Engineering Manager at TeamSystem, where he works on scalable data platforms, AI-enabled data products, and data governance architectures. Based in Milan, he is an active member of Python Milano community and co-host of the Intervista Pythonista podcast.

Free in-person event: Take Control of Your Mental Health
It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself.
Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went?
Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence?
Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.
TBD

Speak Easy (Storytelling)
The topic for March is "Our Bodies, Ourselves"
Speak Easy: true stories, told live.
The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast.
Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect.
The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
Shut Up & Write!® East Side Columbus
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 7:00pm on Wednesday, March 25 at Streetlight Guild.
Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, 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:**
6:45ish - Quick introductions
7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour
8:00 - The End
**OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing.
**BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild!
**WHAT SHOULD I BRING?**
Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you!
**OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:**
* **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space!
* **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels.
* **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay!
* **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.
