We each approach impr ovement from our own (limited) perspective\, without taking into account t he whole story. How is that effective? \n\n EventStorming is a workshop fo rmat that promotes collaboration between different disciplines in order to solve business problems in the most effective way. \n\n What you will lea rn \n\n In this highly hands-on and interactive virtual workshop you'll le arn advanced EventStorming facilitation skills spanning from large scale b usiness discovery to collaborative solution design at the team level. \n\n Learn how to facilitate the different EventStorming formats applied to re al business problems\, taking into account the different perspectives (inc luding the facilitator). Practice applying EventStorming to various proble ms\, reflecting on your learning and questions as we go deeper into the te chniques. \n\n Learn tips and tricks for effective facilitation of collabo rative workshops in both in-person and virtual settings\, and practice pla nning anEventStorming session for your own context. \n\n \n\n "We really e njoyed the EventStorming workshop! Paul’s facilitation style and method ology made the exercise easy to understand\, and participation and collabo ration came with ease. He’s very good at tactfully encouraging differin g opinions through thoughtful discussion. The workshop was a huge success with a highly valuable end result!" \n\n \n\n \n\n Session 1 - EventStorm ing as a big picture discovery tool \n\n \n Quick kick-off: where are we a nd where we want to go. \n EventStorming dry-run: modeling a narrative. \n Exploring the whole using Big Picture EventStorming - mastering complexit y and unknowns in large scale modeling. \n Identifying emergent boundaries through structural elements such as key events. \n Managing conflicts\, h ighlighting risk\, and the problems really worth solving. \n EventStorming as a platform for problem solving. \n \n\n Session 2 - Using EventStormin g to model a process \n\n \n Process Modeling EventStorming: a cross-disci pline platform for collaborative modeling. \n Improving our process explor ing motivations of different actors. \n A different perspective on softwar e design: the picture that explains everything. \n Make policies explicit. \n Design around value: hidden and explicit motivators. \n Constraining m odeling to specific business cases to stay focused \n \n\n Session 3 - Usi ng EventStorming to design a system \n\n \n Design-Level EventStorming: le veraging collaborative modeling to sketch bullet-proof models quickly. \n Aggregates and consistency: independent moving parts in a large system. \n Design around the bottleneck: changing the rules of the game. \n Blend us er experience design and service design into software design. \n Triggerin g bullet-proof design with visible state. \n The transaction illusion. \n From sticky notes to working software. When to go for a sophisticated arch itecture. \n \n\n Session 4 - Putting it all into practice \n\n \n Virtual and in-person facilitation tips and tricks \n Design your own EventStormi ng workshop and present it for feedback. \n \n\n Workshop Format \n\n \n\n \n Four instructor-led hands-on 3 hour online class sessions. \n Live ins truction using Zoom and Miro (i.e. collaborative online whiteboard) in eac h session. \n After every workshop session you’ll have time for deep-div e discussions during optional “office hours” sessions with Paul\, your instructor. \n You will need a good webcam\, internet connection and micr ophone to participate in this workshop. In order to maximize engagement\, we require all participants keep their webcams on during the workshop. \n We will send you detailed instructions for the workshop a couple of weeks prior. \n Upon finishing the class you will receive an electronic certific ate of completion. \n \n\n This workshop is highly hands-on\, varied\, and interactive. We will be doing group exercises in Zoom breakout rooms. By spreading the training into shorter interactive virtual sessions\, we mini mize the impact to your daily work and keep your energy levels high. \n\n Virtual learning can be intense\, so there will be scheduled breaks every hour. Plus\, if your kids interrupt\, dogs bark\, or you need to step away for a bit\, that's just part of the experience and perfectly fine with us . Our goal is for you to leave the workshop energized and ready to put int o practice what you've learned. In attending this virtual workshop you agr ee to: \n\n \n Be present while also taking care of your needs. \n Extend empathy and acceptance to the other participants. \n Be on video and avoid unnecessary distractions. \n \n\n \n\n Who Should Attend \n\n Anybody wh o works in software teams or with software teams will be able to fully par ticipate in this workshop and take away concrete skills they can apply in real working situations. This includes software developers\, architects\, testers\, product owners\, business analysts\, delivery managers\, enginee ring managers\, directors\, and CTOs. \n\n \n\n "Our EventStorming session with Paul was a huge success. He’s very adept at guiding and informing the process while allowing participants to storm\, discuss and ultimately reach their own conclusions. We emerged from the session with a much bette r understanding and greater agreement around our domains." \n\n About Paul Rayner \n\n Paul Rayner is a developer\, instructor\, coach\, consultant\ , and popular conference speaker with over thirty years of software develo pment experience. \n\n Paul is the founder and chair of the Explore DDD co nference\, the premier domain-driven design conference in North America\, and co-founder of DDD Denver.
