The brave students from Instituto Superior Técnico took the challenge against developers, designers, managers, economists, people with years of experience and still one of the teams managed to get a great 2nd place with a honorable award!

Congratulations to the team:

Janet Rochester just arrive from USA to teach all the leadership techniques.

BECOMING A PROFESSIONAL

The extensive education undertaken by engineers prepares them for entry into the profession, but it does not make them professionals. Engineers become professionals by exemplifying the attributes of a profession, for example, education, authority, community sanction, ethics, culture, and service orientation. These attributes have been defined with the independent practitioner in mind rather than the engineer working in industry. This paper views the attributes of a profession with the engineer in industry in mind and shows how engineers can demonstrate these attributes appropriately in an industrial setting. In doing so, engineers enhance their professionalism and their profession.
 

The conference has lunch included and a demo of Arduino (Is a popular open-source single-board microcontroller)

Jurgen Appelo, is a known author of the Agile Community, he is going to be at 10 April at Tagus Park and we invite you for his seminar.

How to Change the World
“How do I make my managers more Agile?”
“How can I convince developers to educate themselves?”
“How can I make customers more cooperative?”

When transforming organizations and other social systems people usually encounter obstacles. And these obstacles very often involve changing other people’s behaviors. Of course, we cannot really _make_ people behave in a different way. We also cannot really make people laugh, and we cannot really make people happy. But… we can certainly try!

This session is about Change Management 3.0. It is a new change management “super model” which views organizations as complex adaptive systems and social networks. The Change Management 3.0 supermodel wraps various existing models (PDCA, ADKAR, Adoption Curve and The 5 I’s). It lists a few dozen hard questions that can help people in their attempts to change the behaviors of other people in an organization and beyond. No matter whether you are a manager, Scrum Master, Product Owner, software developer or writer, anyone will find it useful to know how to change the world around them.

Local: Núcleo Central Tagus Park

Date: April 10th, 19h00h to 20:00h

Registration is required, you can do it here: http://jurgenlx2012.eventbrite.com/
