The Intersections Unconference - Collaboration Across Disciplines

A 1-day immersive unconference to connect, learn and play at the intersection of Agile, UX Design and Customer Experience.

Operational silos, jargon, and discipline-specific ways of working can be a barrier to achieving outcomes for the very organisations and teams we are trying to support. At the same time, we often find ourselves networking and collaborating with people who are not only like-minded, but also like-practiced. 

Join us at this virtual unconference to break out of your comfort zone and collaborate across disciplines. Explore and co-create approaches to designing and delivering products and services across Agile, UX Design and Customer Experience. Break out of your practice silo, challenge your perspective and collaborate across disciplines at the Intersections Unconference. 

What is an unconference?

It’s a conference without a pre-set agenda which is co-created by the participants. It’s a day where we can come together to co-create our sessions and streams, acknowledging that we all have something to teach and something to learn. Sometimes, our peers are our best mentors. 

Who is it for?

People who make products, services and/or experiences and are passionate about positive outcomes for customers.

Why participate?

• Connect with people who have different perspectives and experiences to yourself, but share your passion
• Grow your thinking and your ideas
• Experiment with ideas and approaches that you couldn’t try out at work 
• Have fun!
• Change the world!

How does it work? 

• The day will start with brainstorming the types of topics we’re collectively interested in exploring as we self-organise into themes and breakout sessions.
• We’ll use breakout rooms to engage each other in healthy collaboration.
• At times we’ll come together as a community to share our experiences, learnings and conversations.

Who is behind this?

The Intersection Unconference is a collaboration between The Auckland Agile Coaching Meetup, The Customer Experience Collective, and User Experience Auckland to offer our communities the opportunity to connect, learn and play across disciplines.
