What happened: XXX

Issue: There were different perspectives on pre, during and post event execution which impacted tech community, pushing up churn rate.

Action:
Constructive feedback email was shared within community, putting it on debate table.
Data collected across social media, emails etc. and shared with team behind, great feedbacks btw!
Report was provided by representative to community

Lessons Learned:
Collect data is important, to set us for success
We can only break stereotypes together
We learned to give constructive feedback, without personal relation impact
We learned to give report, and keep community accountable

  • We learned to learn, accept feedback, and grow

Conclusion: Our directions could be different but target is same: grow as community

NICE ACHIEVEMENT, LETS KEEP OUR BABY STEPS FOR OUR DREAM COMMUNITY!
Egoless, collaborative, competent, decentralized, scalable, fun community culture
Structured and indexed data flow within community

Once starting #techbrains thread, my intention was to bring open source spirit, unfortunately yesterday i did not feel in my plate, and some ppl got it wrong, as some of you reached me, saying that left once arrived to venue, sorry for your valuable time, I needed more deep dive before, supporting this, once again:

Egoless, collaborative, competent, decentralized, scalable, fun community culture
Structured and indexed data flow within community

My expectations was this team, will be able to drive community to next level, while I focus on global exposure, and we put both side-by-side, but at this point I have doubts on the capabilities and vision, and let you make personal decision.

So, coming to our context:

Brief: I did not enjoy event because I didn't learn new things, or helped others to learn new things or didn't make me think.

Long:

  1. Why some folks reading from paper were not presented in agenda and we even could not hear, what is speech about, who they are, why they are there
  2. Why there was no Q&A
  3. Why nobody asked for help, seems motivation was headcount
  4. Why we still not learned it is about people, not fancy food or place
  5. Why media folks doing selfies and using their camera as mirror instead of hunting for valuable information
  6. NO MORE MARKETING BS!

Fix: The way I was expecting it, was panel discussions, people shouting, debating about problems, solutions, not generic BS:

  1. Give enough time, make your homework , research, ask people who have “seen the movie” before. Talk to event planning orgs
  2. Define clear goal & agenda, ppt shared in advance
  3. Understand where community / audience is, interest/competence
  4. Define path, how to achieve the goal
  5. Define how measure the progress
  6. Define what community / audience will get once get there
  7. Ask for feedback, don't expect random email, like that
