The modern attention span is shrinking. When you have the opportunity to talk about your brand to a new audience there is very little leeway when it comes to clear, concise communication. You need to be prepared to reach the right people with the right verbiage to capture their attention and imagination immediately. In this workshop, we’ll walk through a hands-on messaging exercise to determine how you should position a new brand to each of your core audiences.

Marketing and Sales. Communicate with customers and close deals, easy right? If only. Marketers and salespeople are often pitted against each other, pursuing competing goals and wondering what the other spends all day doing.

In this interactive team talk, we will use a Prisoner’s Dilemma-style game to show attendees/participants why it’s in the best interests of marketers and salespeople to work together. We will also explore the natural differences that cause them to move in opposing directions. This talk will include best practices in each of these disciplines and case studies to learn from.

Many of the world's most challenging problems require behavior change.

- Climate change would be less of a problem if people recycled, reduced their carbon footprint, and ate less meat. 

- People would experience better health outcomes if they took the medicines their doctors prescribe with the regularity prescribed.

- People would have better retirements if they engaged in more effective savings behaviors during their career

Behavioral science and technology provide crucial tools to change counterproductive behavior on a massive scale to address the world's biggest problems. Attend this event by Action Design Denver (https://www.meetup.com/meetup-group-CYyilEwt/events/270456015/) to learn how to make your impact through digital behavior change.

A happy hour of experience design and conversation, with a live cocktail-making segment!

Join me for a drink in this brave and uncertain time as we explore ways that we as solo entrepreneurs can invite and create connective experiences from afar.

After a short cocktail-making lesson (first 10 mins; optional but highly encouraged), we’ll explore some methodologies of relational experience design and how to utilize them to build connections that persist (and maybe even grow) through unsteady times.

This workshop will teach you how to use interviewing, state-shifting, and a dose of the mystical to design nuanced experiences for yourself and others.

We’ll keep high regard for everyone’s individual risk profile and tolerance, but also be willing to try on new lenses of the possibility that can facilitate growth and connection.

You’ll learn:

* what abductive design is and how to create it

* interviewing to get to the heart of desire and longing
* how to use experience design to deepen relationships in the current times

This workshop will be led by Amy Segreti.
Watch Amy speak (originally on the TEDx stage, now on TED.com) about experience design as a tool for enlivening connection: https://www.ted.com/talks/amy_segreti_the_power_of_pronoia_how_to_design_for_meaning

Ingredients you'll need for the (optional) cocktail segment:

- decaf cold brew concentrate (or regular, if you're okay with caffeine in the evening)
- Campari (or Contratto Bitter)
- red vermouth
- orange peel (optional)

Or, bring your own ingredients and make something else together with us!
