LaunchPad Startup Weekend California

Will be mentoring at the LaunchPad Startup Weekend — a 54-hour event designed to provide an introductory entrepreneurship educational experience to students.

Designed for students early in their journey with no prior training or existing venture, we believe great startup ideas can come from anyone, anywhere, and diverse teams perform better!

LaunchPad Startup Weekends challenge students to think creatively, communicate effectively, and work in a team, all with the end goal of solving a self-identified problem.

Beginning with team brainstorming around problems and solutions, continuing to work on business plan development, and basic prototyping, LaunchPad Startup Weekends culminate in Sunday pitch presentations.

Participants create working startups during the event and have the opportunity to collaborate with like-minded individuals outside of their daily networks. All teams hear talks by industry leaders and receive valuable feedback from local entrepreneurs. The weekend is centered around action, innovation, and education - and fun!

The Painful Truth behind Burnouts at Work

On the Panel at Wonder Women Tech Virtual Summit

One of the most common misconceptions is that people burn out because of too much work.

When in fact, we are just neglecting the basics of human energetic intelligence.

Turns out that most people drain their energy to sustain their chosen masks, thus driving themselves closer to burnout every day.

Many believe that happiness arrives from an external approval or achievement that can be reached through competitive performance. Sadly, such victories usually don't last very long. The video above contrasts play and performance to uncover some fundamental differences, and how they are impacting or satisfaction with life and at work.

Achieving hyper-performance at work is an essential, often unspoken, aim, not only for organizations and societies, but also everyone individually.

The above article reveals a deeper essence underpinning human change, explaining

Future cities will reshape human potential in countless ways. Novel strategies and models are required for future urban spaces to properly respond to human evolution, environmental conditions, and social dynamics.

Transforming technologies will play an important role in making cities more livable by addressing current emotional challenges and empowering mental health.

Transforming cities aim at improving wellbeing across societies through purposefully designed urban innovations that successfully blend technological advancements with human nature.

To achieve that, a science-driven Transforming Framework has been developed at the renowned Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT Media Lab) to equip practitioners and designers of technology to create urban innovations that last.

TRANSFORMS.ME Talk at TEDxAUP

Demystifying Transformation

Majority of global problems are byproducts of poor human attitude and behavior. Often people find reasons outside themselves for why we have such environmental issues and cultural segregation. We tend to see changes as something difficult, impossible, and mystical, thus something to avoid. Such attitude naturally leads to questionable choices and consequent results. This talk will demystify human change and reveal the secrets of transformation, thus making it easy for everyone to apply globally.

Demystifying Human Change: Transformation Made Easy for Everyone

People, businesses, communities, societies, basically everyone needs help with transforming their lives and activities. Many want to permanently change or walk the path of sustainable transformation, but we also know how often our new year's resolutions end in February. People are often unsuccessful with transformation because they don't have knowledge about it, and thus it seems mystical to many. This talk will revolutionize this aspect by introducing:

  • Transforming Wellbeing Theory — that explains the essentials of and the inevitable need for global transformations (Stibe et al. 2019),

  • Typology of Change — that clarifies the variety of changes and provides ways to consciously separate them (Stibe et al. 2019),

  • Transforming Framework — that contains 8 applicable tools for immediate use (Stibe et al. 2019), and

  • Transforming Sociotech Design — that bends technological innovations with human nature to empower sustainable changes at scale (Stibe et al. 2018, Stibe & Larson 2016).

Our world is going crazy, so what? Therefore, this talk will reveal how the Transforming Wellbeing Theory & Practice is emerging as an inevitable response to the ever-growing imbalance in our lives across the globe. Over the decades, we have been advancing technologies to make our lives better. The fundamental question still remains: with all the evolving innovations, are we gaining decent success in achieving happier and more sustainable societies? Every crucial domain of our lives continuously provides evidence of how things are getting imbalanced despite us making huge progress in building increasingly capable technological innovations, such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, augmented reality, autonomous vehicles, and drones, just to name a few. The talk will provide scientific insights and practical applications to transform lives at global scale. Due to its strong fundament that intertwines technological innovations with human nature, this work is applicable in many essential life contexts, including health, education, sustainability, equality, governance, safety, emergency, management, marketing, ecology, economy, and dwelling.

Transforming Retail Experience

Beyond Pricing

Vai arī jūsu iepirkšanās pieredze ir iestrēgusi atlaižu kultā un cenu dominances stagnācijā?

Vai tiešam nav nekā effektīvāka par gadu desmitos notrulinātajiem burkāniem un nūjām, jebšu pielabināšanas un sodīšanas paņēmieniem?

PIESAKIES LĪDZ 27. MARTAM

PIESAKIES LĪDZ 27. MARTAM

Cilvēki izsenis vēlas patīkamāku dzīvi, pieņemt labklājīgākus lēmumus un izveidot līdzsvarotākus paradumus. Tagad tas ir iespējams, pateicoties transformējošas labklājības teorijai un praksei.

Mūsdienu zinātne apvienojumā ar modernām tehnoloģijām jau vairākus gadus piedāvā inovatīvas pieejas ikdienas pieredzes transfromēšanai visā pasaulē. Tās sekmīgi palīdz sasniegt jēgpilnas attieksmes un uzvedības transformācijas daudzās dzīves jomās, iekļaujot veselību, ilgtspēju, pilsētvidi, transportu, uzņēmējdarbību, pārvaldi, un citas. Ir pienācis laiks šo sasniegumu aktīvākam pielietojumam arī uzlabojot iepirkšanās pieredzi.

Konference Retail Pulse ’19

Konference “Retail Pulse '19” ir svarīga tikšanās vieta ikvienam, kas šodien ir saistīts ar mazumtirdzniecības nozari. Tēma “BEYOND PRICING” uzsver, ka cena nebūt nav vienīgais līdzeklis, kas ietekmē pircēja izvēli. Lēmums par pirkumu formējas pakāpeniski, un cenas impulsu nozīmi nosaka dažādu pieredzes aspektu kopums. Tā ir teritorija, ko varam ietekmēt.

Konference sniegs atbildes uz jautājumiem:

  • Kas noticis mazumtirdniecības jomā 2018. gadā un ko varētu nest 2019. gads?

  • Kāds ir mūsdienu veikals?

  • Kā pozitīvi ietekmēt pircēja pieredzi?

  • Kā palielināt pārdošanu bez cenu samazinājuma?

  • Kā radīt dizainu, kas izceļ produktu un motivē pircēju izvēlēties tieši tavu produktu?

  • Dienu noslēgsim ar diskusiju – ko nozīmē būt labam pircēju mārketinga ekspertam?
