NgColombia Speaker Guidelines

We want you to be a rockstar in the stage 🔥, we want everyone calling your name euphorically and following you everywhere (not just in your social media 😜). To help you achieve it, we have defined a set of guidelines that will make you shine! Read them carefully:

1. Accessibility

First, we want everyone to be able to enjoy your talk fully:

• ⚓️ English is not a native language in Latin America so speak slow. Despite the fact that the audience will have translation devices, strive to be as clear as possible.

P.A.D.A.

Purpose | Agenda | Documents | Actions

1. Context

Meetings are aimed at discussions where the perspective of attendees is key to solve important matters and reach conclusions. Meetings are not group working sessions that are aimed at getting something done. Meetings should range between 5 minutes and 30 minutes. Working sessions range from 30 minutes to 4 hours.

2. Meeting Invite

Corporate Culture

1. What is it?

Set of values and beliefs that define what is encouraged, discouraged, accepted, or rejected within an organization.

When properly aligned with personal values, drives, and needs, culture can unleash tremendous amounts of energy toward a shared purpose and foster an organization’s capacity to thrive.

Emotional Recipes

Little steps are usually more effective at talking the brain into an idea than immediate spontaneous commands. Use these three recipes when necessary:

1. 🆘 Urgent Recovery: For tough times full of anxiety or depression
2. 🤕 Ego Validation: For when your ego is hurt
3. 💼 Productivity Negotiation: For when you are being lazy for too long

1. Urgent Recovery 🆘

1. What is it?

The ego is an idea of yourself rooted on the opinion of others. It is an identity that serves as a preliminary answer to the question: "Who am I?".

A lot of vital aspects of your life derive from this identity such as your purpose, goals, and dreams. Pretty much the reasons to wake up every morning. When your ego is questioned and jeopardized, the aforementioned aspects are also shaken, and it feels awful.

To cope with this condition people constantly look for ways to reinforce their ego, to confirm their identity, and this process is called validation.

2. Ego Validation
