SUMMARY:What's Eating Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:What’s eating climate change \nWant to know more about what’s happening in the food waste space in Aotearoa? \nWe’ve gathered an awesome lineup of leaders working at different stages of the food system who are on a mission to help reduce food waste and the emissions that come with it. \nJoin us for a panel as we ask ‘What does food waste mean to you?’ to those on the front line working on solutions to address the food-waste crisis.

SUMMARY:Exclusive Ask Me Anything (AMA) Session with Mahesh Muralidhar and Toby Thomas-Smith
DESCRIPTION:More About the Speakers \nToby Thomas-Smith: CEO and Co-founder of Kiki Club (formerly known as Easy Rent)\, successful in NZ\, Australia and recently launched in the US. Kiki Club has just closed the largest seed round in NZ startup history\, raising an impressive $10 million. \nMahesh Muralidhar: One of the original leaders at design giant Canva\, senior exec at multiple Aussie tech startups\, and CEO of Phase One Ventures – an incubator and mentoring program for Kiwi startups. \nMC: Pauli Sosa: An innovator\, facilitator and tech community connector – as our host for this session. \nThe Backstory \nToby\, a 22-year-old from Wellington\, has been a significant force in Auckland’s startup scene for almost half a decade. Mahesh and Toby’s shared journey over the last three years is nothing short of inspirational. From their initial meetings over Zoom\, to navigating challenges on co-founder dynamics\, product\, and pivotal growth decisions from Sydney to New York\, their story showcases the raw and often unseen journey from zero to one in the startup world. \nThis is a rare glimpse inside the black box of startup evolution; made even more special by the rare opportunity to hear in person from Toby\, who’s now based in New York full-time. \nWhy This Matters? \nWhile many are familiar with the beginnings (zero) and the successes (one) of startups\, few get to witness the challenging and transformative zero-to-one phase. This AMA session will shed light on that crucial period. \nThis event also marks a full-circle moment. Seven years ago\, GridAKL hosted a session where Mahesh spoke about Canva’s formation. Toby\, then only 14\, was in the audience\, marking the start of their interconnected journeys. \nThis isn’t just a story about startups. It’s about dreams\, perseverance\, and the power of collaboration. \nShout out to KikiClub and PhaseOne Ventures for helping us make this event free for everyone to attend!\n \nSee you all at GridAKL!

SUMMARY:Design Assembly Workshop
DESCRIPTION:We all have talents; naturally recurring ways of thinking\, feeling\, or behaving that can be productively applied.  We use them every day to achieve what we are responsible for.  The challenge is that talents are innate.  We just “do them” without thinking.  So it can be difficult for us to describe them to others and even see the value in them ourselves.  An example of this is think about the question\, “What is one positive word people used to describe you?” Many of us find this difficult to quickly answer. \nThe truth is in any work we do the HOW’s (thoughts\, feelings\, behaviours) always come before the WHAT’s (the priorities and delivery of the work).  What if we were able to accurately describe our talents so that it: \n\nShort circuits how your boss\, team\, and clients can get the best from you\nSupports how you best work together\, to make the process of design much simpler\nBe able to ask the right questions to get the best from others\n\nWhat will I learn?\nWe all love a personality test.  We start by completing a CliftonStrengths profile which helps to identify and describe your talents.  The trick with any profile is that it is most powerful when you understand how to apply them uniquely to you.  This three hour workshop is designed to help you discover: \n\nHow to get the best out of you Understand your 1 in 33 million point of difference.  Be able to confidently voice the unique way you approach your work.  What you are good at and why (something that can help boost your portfolio)\nHow to get the best out of others Increase empathy for others\, how we all do things differently and that through intentional partnerships you can make our work more impactful\nTools to get right information from those you work with through adapting your style\, by leveraging your talents and most importantly by asking the right questions\n\nWho is this for?\n\n\nCreative Directors\nDesign Directors\nAccount Mangers\nDesign Studio Owners\nPeople moving into managing leadership roles which manage teams\nEmployees across all functions and roles; whether it be designers or the teams and roles that support them\nFreelance or contractor designers looking to unlock natural strengths and turn them into their unique point of difference.\nConsider more than one person attending from your team to improve the collaboration between you\n\nWhat will I walk away with?\n\nA Gallup CliftonStrengths profile and CliftonStrengths Theme Report and CliftonStrengths Insight Guide\nA pre work quick course to debrief the results\nA detailed and personalised reference guide with insights including what you contribute\, what you need\, how you are best managed\nDebrief with a group of individuals with a process designed to create new connections\nA follow-up programme with additional resources and reminders to apply what was covered in the workshop\n\n— \nMeet your facilitator: Jason Biggs — The Strengths Collective\n\nJason helps workplaces and their people hum through coaching\, workshops and self-sustaining tools that help you short circuit the process and DIY. His method helps to identify and play to yours\, your teams’ and your organisation’s strengths\, have better\, regular and more impactful coaching conversations\, and focus on the important stuff. Jason has worked in the corporate sector for over 20 years\, marketing brands like NESCAFE\, KLEENEX and HUGGIES. He thrives helping people understand why they do what they do and to leverage this to get what they want. He’s a commercial guy at heart so that means delivering good business outcomes. In the last ten years he’s coached hundreds of people either as individuals or teams and worked with organisations such as Spark\, Nestle\, Freightways\, New Zealand Blood Service\, Chapman Tripp\, Downer\, Fonterra\, Kiwicare\, The Tile Depot. \n— \nThanks to our Design Assembly Partners BookPrint\, mychillybin\, Portfolio\, Rocketspark and Streamtime.\nNot a DA Friend? Sign-up to help DA help you!
