In this session, explore the journey of Theater Basel towards achieving digital accessibility. Join us as we delve into the process of certifying their existing website for WCAG 2.1, AA conformity.

In this session, gain insights into how the project team effectively addressed accessibility challenges by dividing them into three crucial areas: conceptual, editorial, and technical. Learn how this strategic approach allowed them to take targeted actions in each area, resulting in the certification from Access for All.

Using the case study of Theater Basel, I will demonstrate the step-by-step approach to a successful certification process. Throughout the session, I will share valuable insights and useful tools that can be applied to other projects.

Key Takeaways:

Digital accessibility can be achieved without sacrificing aesthetics.
Creating an accessible website requires perseverance and commitment.
Drupal provides support for accessibility through various modules.
Adopting an accessibility perspective makes it easier to create an inclusive online experience.

Join this session to gain practical knowledge and actionable strategies for improving digital accessibility in your own projects. Discover how Theater Basel has prioritized accessibility and learn how to leverage Drupal's capabilities to ensure equal access for all users.

Project Management & Business

In today’s fast-paced digital environment, time is one of our most precious, if not the most precious, commodities. One would then figure that we would value it and manage it well, right?

Well - not really. While most of us understand the importance of time and its limited amount, we somehow fail to put this understanding into practice and waste our time on distractions and procrastination rather than taking the reins and living the life we’ve always dreamt of living.

In this session, I’ll discuss about the importance of time management and give you some tips on how to effectively manage your time and get more out of your life.

Project Management & Business

We at NETNODE, a small swiss Drupal agency have successfully adopted and blended principles from Holacracy, Sociocracy, and Reinventing Organizations since late 2019. In this session, I will explore the fascinating world of decentralized leadership and share our experience in creating a thriving work environment without a CEO or job titles.

Key Takeaways:

Gain an understanding of Holacracy, Sociocracy, and Reinventing Organizations, and learn how these models can create a more adaptive and empowered work culture.
Discover how NETNODE successfully transitioned from a more traditional organisation model to a flexible, self-managing organization, while continuing to excel as a Drupal agency.
Learn from our experiences, challenges, and successes in adopting these new organizational models and creating a supportive, collaborative, and innovative environment for our team members.
Gain insights into the practical steps and tools that can be used to implement and scale these models in your own organization.

Session Format:

This interactive session will feature a mix of theory and practice, with the first half dedicated to explaining the core concepts and ideas behind Holacracy, Sociocracy, and Reinventing Organizations. The second half will focus on the journey of NETNODE, sharing our experiences in adopting these models, the challenges we faced, and the positive (and negative) outcomes we achieved. There will be ample opportunity for Q&A and group discussion to facilitate knowledge sharing and networking among attendees.

Join me in this session to discover how you can break away from traditional organizational structures and create a more resilient, innovative, and efficient workplace through the power of decentralized leadership models.

Communication and collaboration in teams and organizations is THE challenge. Right?

Imagine that you can suddenly talk about these topics very easily - using LEGO models.

Imagine that working out complex topics like strategy, values, product, processes can be done seriously and yet with fun.

And not only do you manage to get your point across more clearly, but you also better understand the other perspectives of your team colleagues.

It's easier for you to develop a common understanding and negotiate what the next steps should be, based on this acquired knowledge.

That's the magic of LEGO Serious Play.

In the workshop you will receive a Lego Serious Play Exploration Set to start building models right away.
