SUMMARY:ConsoleZ - Access z/VM consoles and more from a Web UI (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Join the Open Mainframe Project community on Tuesday\, September 21 at 9 -10 am PDT for a webinar about ConsoleZ. Register here.  \nConsoleZ is an open source package that gives browser access to z/VM consoles and CP commands\, while also being able to limit access by groups. Hosted by the Open Mainframe Project\, it can save time when teams need access to multiple z/VM LPARs. \nRather than having to open many 3270 console sessions\, Mike MacIsaac\, the leader of ConsoleZ and a Systems Programmer at ADP\, will present will show how all z/VM LPARs can be accessed through the same Web user interface and how easy it is to data mine. \nAttendees will learn: \n\nHow ConsoleZ strives to modernize Linux on Z by offering a new open source tool for z/VM and zLinux.\nHow it can save more time and resources\nHow ConsoleZ is secure\, efficient and has a better user interface\n\nRegister for the webinar: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_39KvlhDOQ5mVNn_5BEIccw

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.

In this role\, I get the opportunity to work with customers\, business partners\, and vendors on leading edge technologies and teaching developers how they can use them. I’m constantly challenged to find engaging ways to create technical material that can be used around the world at any time. It is a lot of fun! \nWhen I’m not working\, you’ll find me exploring my new home in the UK\, expanding my baking skills through new bakes or cake decorating\, and doing Olympic weightlifting training. \nI’ve contributed to 3 IBM Redbooks\, blogged for IBM\, and created various customer workshops. If you Google me\, you’ll find videos of me talking about various technologies I’ve worked with and my passion for bringing in new talent to work with and learn from. As time allowed while I was in the US\, I worked with campuses in the Dallas area where I lived to encourage students to continue their technology-related studies and recruited on campus for IBM. I also am a member of the American Indian Science and Engineering Society. As a Cherokee\, I love getting to network with others from similar backgrounds and volunteer to work with students who are paving the way for their families and keeping the culture alive. \n  \n \nLauren Valenti\, Head of Mainframe Education and Customer Engagement\, Broadcom \nLauren is based in Melville\, New York.  Her team is focused on ensuring customers and partners\, who have adopted Broadcom Mainframe Solutions\, have the right technical training designed to acquire\, maintain and improve their IT skills for the Mainframe.  Lauren has held various positions in Marketing\, Support\, and Engineering since joining CA Technologies\, now Broadcom\, in 2000.
