Pull Up a Chair: A Daily Coffee Salon on What It Would Take to Actually Fix Tech
The media hysteria frames a fight between Robot and Human, and the industry is happy to oblige.
It's easier to have a conversation on "right vs wrong" than to admit the fundamentals are broken: skills, accountability, and the will to hold the industry to a higher standard.
We don't have a technology problem. We have a discipline problem.
In this Coffee Salon Series, join an intimate & facilitated discussion around what it takes to move past the bizarre and intrusive to achieve the economic and social outcomes it touts.
In Monday's daily thinking collaboration, we will look at:
Which values we're really affirming when we turn founders into prophets — and what gets erased from the story of every company that actually lasted
What changes when your funding demands evidence instead of charisma - and what it reveals about who wins in tech's standard operating model
What organizational psychology knows about why teams build the wrong things - and why tech never bothered to ask
If you're an experienced practitioner or industry stakeholder who enjoys honest conversation and despises charlatans, please join.
About Your Host: Lindsay Tabas first called out the tragedy of siloed enterprise software systems while getting her Masters at UC-Berkeley in 2006. She was told to earn her stripes before she could speak louder. She has.
