SUMMARY:I am a Mainframer: Personal Stories and Lessons from the Next Generation of Mainframe Developers
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Wednesday\, August 18 at 8-9 am PDT for a new webinar that explores “Personal Stories and lessons from the next generation of mainframe Developers.” \nFive open source mainframe developers will share their personal journey into the mainframe\, covering what they’re working on\, the challenges and issues (good and bad) and their experiences with customers\, the open source community\, and more.  \nOne of the challenges of open source and projects like Zowe is how it can reinvent a 60 year old computing platform for the next generation of developers and system programmers and architects at tomorrow’s IT companies.  \nThis webinar will shine the light on four key Open Mainframe community members who are playing their part and open the lid on their successes\, failures\, and questions and answers for the secret sauce that is powering Zowe and other Open Mainframe Projects they are involved with. The success of Zowe and the Open Mainframe Project comes in large part from the diversity and background of its committers\, and this panel brings together a group that includes the Zowe Technical Steering Committee lead together with squad members from different companies. \nSpeakers include: \n\nJoe Winchester\,  Senior Technical Staff Member at IBM (Moderator)\nJakub Balhar\, Staff Software Engineer at Broadcom and Zowe TSC Chair\nLauren Li\, Front-End Developer at IBM\nLeanid Astrakou\, Staff Software Engineer at Rocket\nLeonid Baranov\, Staff Software Engineer at Broadcom\nAshley (Nan Nan) Li\, Content Designer at IBM \n\nRegister for the webinar here: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_XxwiPaFtRreDN1aONdQa_A.

SUMMARY:Unmasking Our 'Whole Self': Can We Create Inclusive Psychologically Safe Spaces in the Workplace?’ Webinar
DESCRIPTION:In the third webinar installation of the Making Our Strong Community\, Stronger collaborative initiative on diversity\, equity and inclusion\, ‘Unmasking Our ‘Whole Self’: Can We Create Inclusive Psychologically Safe Spaces in the Workplace?’ we look at how the pressures of the pandemic have heightened racial\, gender and additional inequalities. \nRegister for the July 28 webinar at 9 am PDT/12 pm EDT here: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_9lBJWkNzSpChfbUQoa8n3w.  \nWork/life integration is the modern equivalent of work/life balance\, and inherent in this is the idea that your “whole self” is welcome at work. As the last many months demonstrated\, there is less separation between work and personal lives than we originally thought. But this idea of work/life integration and its influence on corporate inclusion plays out differently for different people\, when being your “whole self” is a privilege—while some may be comfortable being their genuine “whole self” at work\, others (especially those from more diverse populations) still feel a need to wear a mask based on how they are expected to behave but not who they really are. How can we create psychologically safe spaces where all employees feel comfortable bringing their “whole selves” or more of themselves to work? Panelists for this webinar include: \n\nAllyson B. Cook\, Program Lead\, Customer Engagement Programs\, Broadcom\nEarl Dixon Jr.\, Principal Client Services\, Vitality Program Tech Lead\, Broadcom\nKevin Norlin\, Chief Revenue Officer\, Rocket Software\nTina Tarquinio\, Product Management Director for IBM Z\, IBM\n\nWe are also pleased to host a unique event after the webinar for attendees only: Dr. Gloria Chance\, our webinar moderator and President/CEO of The Mousai Group\, will hold a private Town Hall on July 29 at 9-10 am PDT for attendees to join the conversation\, bringing their own experiences and questions into this growing DE&I community. \nThe Making Our Strong Community\, Stronger collaborative initiative is sponsored by Broadcom Mainframe Software\, IBM\, Open Mainframe Project\, Rocket Software\, TechChannel and VirtualZ Computing.
