Nalee +1 – you are our first official registrant!

                   Would you help us out by filling the information requested and replying just to Ruchi and self.
                   We really do not want to cause a little storm on the mailing list.

Now My English skill is not good but I feel my English skill is improving everyday.
so I want to try attend this event.

Can I attend this event? Can I help other openstack women members?


I think this is a great idea for the Tokyo summit, thanks Ruchi and Malini!

All, please be aware of the Travel Support Program and apply by the August 10 deadline -- see https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Travel_Support_Program for details. I can answer questions you have about the process, or refer you to someone who knows.

Thanks,

P.S. Is anyone else struggling to type Tokyo correctly? Sheesh I'm a terrible speller, there I said it. :)

I am waiting your reply.

Thank you.

Hello Ladies!
A while back Jessica (IBM) had written to brainstorm on what we could offer the Women-of-OpenStack at Tokyo.
Intel has been running for some years a  “Command and Presence” Workshop internally and graduates leave with some winning learnings.


•         Designed to improve confidence while presenting at technical review meetings (think:  design summits, technical committees, internal justifying work and resources meetings)

It simulates challenging dynamics (think: cross-industry, cross-project priorities, and responses that seem dismissive/my-way or no way.

Helps them gain visibility and respect

•         Developed by some brilliant women,  tested and tuned over 4 years, with help from male allies in role playing and post-analysis

With great pleasure Intel would like to bring this to the Women of OpenStack.
First come first served basis, Maximum: 24 people. 2.5 hours long. Monday before the summit kicks off.  Free.
Please respond if interested with:
Name: First Last
Email:
Company:
Openstack Projects of interest:                (helps to gauge who to invite for challenge environment)
Current Role:
Goal:   (what you would like to take away)
Preference: Monday morning or afternoon

Please reply to Ruchi Bhargava (ruchi.bhargava at intel.com<mailto:ruchi.bhargava at intel.com>) and
                            Malini Bhandaru (malini.k.bhandaru at intel.com<mailto:malini.k.bhandaru at intel.com>)

Before I graduated from Command-and-Presence, still relatively new at Intel, I would try to go to a meeting SUPER PREPARED, to anticipate every question and be able to answer it.
There is no such thing when you are working at the edge and innovating. Walked away with a tool –“Action Required(s) items”, tasks, ones that you will follow up post meeting and update/circle back.
Regards
Ruchi and Malini

Subject: [Women-of-openstack] Women of OpenStack working session summary and next steps

Thanks for everyone who was able to join us at the Women of OpenStack working session on May 19. A special thanks to our lightening talk speakers: Valerie Aurora<https://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=5574129&authType=NAME_SEARCH&authToken=5PuI&locale=en_US&trk=tyah&trkInfo=clickedVertical%3Amynetwork%2Cidx%3A1-1-1%2CtarId%3A1432849164634%2Ctas%3Avalerie%20aur>, Nina Goradia, and Madhura Maskasky<https://twitter.com/madhuramaskasky> for sharing their experiences and inspiring our group discussions. If you have not already seen the article, Allison Price from the OpenStack Foundation has written a great summary of working session on Superuser: http://superuser.openstack.org/articles/how-to-get-more-women-involved-in-tech-communication-leadership-and-mentors

After summarizing the group break out sessions there are very similar themes to what we discussed during our Paris Summit working session. Key areas of focus include:
1. Developing women leaders
2. Increasing the visibility of women in the OpenStack community
3. Mentorship
4. Building a strong communications channel for the Women of OpenStack

Several of you have asked, "What's next?" That is really up to us. We've heard from many of you that you want the Women of OpenStack to continue to work together between summits to address these key issues. To help facilitate follow-on discussions I've included several volunteer sign up sheets in addition to a full group summary in this google drive doc: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nu_0EperGdXIQifmjHiNVuB2RJb-5bVJkB9oRT-ExVw/edit#gid=0

The goal is for each volunteer group to come together as a team to develop 1-2 key actions they want to accomplish leading up to the Tokyo Summit. There has already been some great progress and discussion on creating an IRC channel which was one of our communication follow-up actions. I'm looking forward to what this group can accomplish in the other areas as well.

Let me know if you have any questions, I am definitely looking forward to continuing the conversation ...
