    Episode 29 - Die Produktwerker
    Aug 26 2024
    Diese Folge hat mir besonders viel Spaß gemacht und ich war besonders gespannt: Die Produktwerker, meine Freunde aus Köln. Sie zeichnen sich aus durch einen wöchentlich, regelmässig Montags um 6:00 Uhr morgens erscheinenden Podcast. Und ich meine: wirklich wöchentlich um 6:00 Uhr morgen. Sie bieten unheimlich nette, freundliche Education, begonnen von der klar strukturierten Website über ihre öffentlichen und internen Trainings. Vor allem aber haben sie ein unglaublich inklusive, freundliche, einladende Art. Jedes Event, bei sie dabei sind strahlt unter ihrer Freundlichkeit. Erlebt sie. Heute im Podcast: Tim Klein stellvertretend für die drei!

    Ep. 28: Holger Nils Pohl - "The Wrong Planet“
    Jun 10 2024
    Hey, we haven’t heard in a while. I am happy to be back. In all kinds of ways. If you have questions where I was, ask. But let’s cut to the chase! This pod is all about Holger and his new book on autism. It is written from first hand experience with all empathy you can imagine. It's also a short entertaining read for the whole family. Especially for families not familiar or ever having been in touch with autism. So, before you do anything else, I urge you to visit Holger's Kickstarter Campaign for the book! Also, please spread the word!!! If you want to know more, stay here and listen to the pod. I have watched Holger's work since many years, but we never met. Finally, we met at a a conference in Cologne this spring and we spent a lot of time discussing. Holger is a person, I felt attached to right away but not only Holger as a person but also his work and thinking. I learned straight away that he did what I always promised, at least to myself, which is to write a book. Not only one, but the current count is - we are not quite sure, at ten. For my personal view, Holger’s latest book is his most important one. It is called „The Wrong Planet“. It tells the story of an alien on an unexpected journey to planet earth, having a crashed landing and having a couple of encounters to species unknown to him: ducks, a bear, a beaver an otter and a frog. Ofc, all of this is a metaphor for the experiences of people living with Asperger Autism. It is written from a person knowning the experience first hand. More in the episode. Lots more. The book is a very short and easily digestible book for the whole family, old and young, and also or even more interesting to anyone not living with Asperger autism. Beyond that it is ofc leading to thoughts of a more general and deeper understanding of diversity in general. The English version is a kickstarter project available from June 11 2024. All relevant info is available under holgernilspohl.com/autism. There will also be super interesting pledges excerpt just the book. Go there, get the info, be informed and potentially buy! If you want the German edition, you are lucky, you can directly buy it from Holger und his webpage holgernilspohl.com/ under books. Ofc we cover all the other work that Holger is doing and you also might already know him from his work in innovation and visualization or any of his collaborations with Alex Osterwalder, Sohrab Salimi and many more. Also, the conversation goes a long way on getting started, staying in pace, productivety and getting done as well as the value of visualization - which is Holger's actual profession. Last not least, his latest non fiction book „Creating Clarity“ is awesome and you can just do it like me and direct order from Holger and get it shipped signed and super instantly. A really nice product experience. Go For it. But now: LetÄs listen to the man himself. Again: Check out Holger’s kickstarter project „The Wrong Planet“ from June 11 2024 on https:// holgernilspohl.com/autism Or check out the already existing German version of the book on his web page under books. Thanks for listening, thanks to Holger for his time and see / hear all of you soon.

  • EP. 27: Luke Hohmann - FirstRoot - Participatory Budgeting in Schools

    EP. 27: Luke Hohmann - FirstRoot - Participatory Budgeting in Schools
    May 30 2021

    "Calm down, take a deep breath and just talk to me“

    Luke Hohmann’s new mission: Participatory Budgeting in Schools

    Luke Hohmann founded FirstRoot to advance participatory budgeting in schools. Let me get straight to the point: You can invest in this company in this early stage. You can also support the cause by talking about or by simply using the free software and talking about it in your kids’ school.

    Luke Hohmann and me go back a long time. I met him ca. 12 years ago in one of his trainings and was fortunate enough to co-train and facilitate with him. He wrote an early book „Beyond Software Architecture“ which to me is one of the best books on software Architecture (sic!) and was ahead of its time. He then got deep into Serious Games with his Innovation Games trainings and a great book on it. Also ahead of its time.

    From there he was on a constant path towards which had to end in what he does now. Through his Innovation Games, he made it to participatory budgeting in communities, in the Enterprise and other important places. Also, he built an enterprise SaaS company to further bring his ideas deeper into Companies and also enable distributed Serious Games. Now, he founded FirstRoot, bringing participatory budgeting to schools.

    (You will realize over the course of the pod, that we couldn’t constrain ourselves - we wouldn’t be Luke and Markus, then - from drawing all kinds of parallels to Quality of Software, agile, Portfolio Planning, Architecture, Comics for Story Mapping and what have you.)

    The underlying problem that Luke is tackling with FirstRoot is inequality of chances by social background, financial illiteracy (lack of education on that topic in school in general) and economic disparity.

    First Root is having its part in solving that problem by offering a five step process in facilitating Participatory Budgeting to pupils around the globe, based on a software solution.

    Steps are:

    1. Planning
    2. Gather Ideas
    3. Refine Ideas to proposals
    4. Voting (there will always be more ideas than we can afford - „a truism in life“
    5. Projects in implematation

    In the pod Luke thoroughly leads us through an example to show us how it works and which impact it has.

    I put the core of the idea at the beginning of the cast.

    Again: If you believe in this story, you can also invest for as little as a couple of hundred dollars alongside of people like Alex Osterwalder, Lysa Adkins and many more. You also help by just using the software and bring it into schools. Just follow the „Invest“ link on firstroot.co
