 ver (Engineering Lead\, Data Camp) \n\n Talk: What Capuchin Monkeys Know t
 hat Engineering Leaders Don't 🐒 \n\n In a study popularized by Frans de
  Waal's 2014 TED Talk\, two monkeys were given a simple task: take a rock 
 from a researcher\, give it back\, and then collect their reward. For the 
 monkeys\, it was a pretty good gig: in exchange for a few seconds of minim
 al effort\, they would each receive a delicious snack. But there was a cat
 ch. One monkey received a cucumber\, while the other received a much-prefe
 rred grape. Mere minutes into the exercise\, the monkey receiving the cucu
 mber began to protest this perceived inequity. Rather than accept the cucu
 mber reward\, the monkey responded by throwing it back at the researcher. 
 \n\n Just a few moments earlier\, this monkey was perfectly content to rec
 eive a delicious cucumber in exchange for this minimal effort task. Howeve
 r\, after seeing his companion receive an even better reward in exchange f
 or the same effort\, he resigned in protest. Why would this monkey give up
  a perfectly good reward  -- at his own expense  -- just because the o
 ther was receiving a slightly better one? And what can this anecdote teach
  us about building effective engineering teams? \n\n This talk will cover 
 the basics of equity theory\, a theory of motivation which argues that bot
 h monkeys and software engineers match their level of effort with their pe
 rceived reward. We'll explore how to discover your team's grapes and cucum
 bers\, what the best managers do to retain their top talent and ways you c
 an make your team both happier and more productive. \n\n Speakers: Naomi M
 eyer (Software Development Engineer\, Adobe) &amp\; Caitlin Crews (Creativ
 e Outreach and Design Specialist\, Adobe) \n\n Talk: Promoting Non-Traditi
 onal STEAM Career Paths in Creative Tech \n\n Maybe you want to hire a new
  engineer\, PM\, designer. Maybe you want to support that one person on yo
 ur team who is from an underrepresented group in tech\, maybe with a non-t
 raditional STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Art Mathematics) backgrou
 nd. But you don’t know-how - and you think diversity and inclusion are g
 ood. \n\n Adobe is a company that values diversity and inclusion and we’
 ve both been part of leading the charge to improve the current landscape. 
 Particularly\, because we both took non-traditional paths to get to our (c
 reative and engineering) roles within Adobe. We’re passionate about advo
 cating for the value of people from non-traditional backgrounds\, in all a
 reas of the technical culture - engineering\, art\, design\, and more! \n\
 n We’ve noticed some areas with room to grow - across the tech industry\
 , so we’ll provide concrete steps towards improvement. Both\, how to tak
 e note of the current gaps and how to improve - in creating and sustaining
  spaces for people from non-traditional backgrounds\, in our shared tech c
 ulture. \n\n Overall we will explore how creative change and human empathy
  impacts career growth - particularly for folks from underrepresented and 
 non-traditional backgrounds in tech. \n
