#wetechtogether 2026 Workshops

Come and explore practical, authentic ways to make your strengths, achievements, and ambitions visible, without worrying about sounding self‑promotional or overly assertive, feeling overwhelmed, or not “enough”. This workshop helps you communicate your value with confidence, integrity and impact, and building meaningful professional connections without compromising who you are.

Through engaging conversations, reflection exercises and peer exchange, you will:
– Explore practical ways to build authentic visibility and identify opportunities
– Communicate your impact with confidence
– Create meaningful professional connections
– Practice sharing your achievements
– Define one concrete action that you can use in your daily life

This workshop is designed for women and allies at all career stages (beginner, intermediate to advanced) who want to increase their confidence, expand their network and be more intentional about their professional visibility.

Format: interactive workshop (notebook, pen or digital, you choose). Come ready to reflect, connect, exchange experiences and take meaningful steps towards greater visibility.

“Everyone has access to the AI assistant now.” Decision made. Licences are live, the launch mail went out, the intro session was well attended — and then nothing moves. The sponsor goes quiet. A peer team says they’ll look at it after the quarter. Half your pilot group logs in twice and never comes back. It feels like resistance. Usually it isn’t. They’re on the same road as you, just a few steps behind.

In this interactive, no-laptop session you’ll work on a real change you are driving right now: getting AI used in your team, a tool rollout, a re-org, a new way of working. We give you one simple model of how people move through change, and one question that tells you where any stakeholder actually stands. Then you use it. You map your own stakeholders, find the ones who are stuck, and decide what each of them needs from you next.You leave with a stakeholder map for your change, a short list of concrete next moves, and a question you can keep using long after Saturday.

Bring one change you care about. That is what makes the two hours pay off. No change-management background needed (beginner to intermediate). No hardware, no software, no pre-reading.

Conflict is part of every team, but how we respond to it can determine whether people feel heard, valued and able to thrive. In this interactive workshop, we will explore how misunderstandings, different communication styles and unspoken assumptions can turn everyday disagreements into difficult conversations, particularly in diverse teams. Rather than avoiding conflict, we will look at how to create spaces that are safe for disagreement and use them to strengthen trust.

Through reflection exercises, group work and practical tools, participants will explore what can sit underneath conflict and learn ways to approach challenging conversations with greater curiosity and confidence.

Whether you are a manager, team member or simply someone who sometimes finds difficult conversations… difficult, this workshop is for you. No previous experience is required, the workshop is suitable for all levels and no laptop or other equipment is needed.

Wir starten mit einem kurzen Warm-up: Ihr bewertet einige AI Use Cases spontan als «gut» oder «schlecht». Anschliessend zeigen wir anhand eines konkreten SBB-Beispiels, wie aus strategischen Zielen Bewertungskriterien entstehen.

Danach arbeitet ihr in Gruppen mit bewusst unterschiedlichen Zielsetzungen. Jede Gruppe entwickelt eigene Kriterien und entscheidet, welche AI Use Cases weiterverfolgt werden sollen. Im Plenum vergleichen wir die Ergebnisse.

Dabei wird schnell sichtbar: Obwohl alle dieselben Use Cases bewerten, fallen die Entscheidungen unterschiedlich aus. Genau darin liegt die zentrale Erkenntnis des Workshops: Die Frage ist nicht, ob ein AI Use Case gut ist, sondern wofür er gut sein soll.

Der Workshop macht die Logik hinter solchen Entscheidungen erlebbar: Aus strategischen Zielen entstehen Kriterien, aus Kriterien Prioritäten. Dabei betrachten wir nicht nur kurzfristige Ziele und Effizienzgewinne, sondern auch die mittel- und langfristigen Auswirkungen auf Mensch und Organisation.

Kriterien sind dabei kein Selbstzweck, sondern ein Werkzeug für bessere Entscheidungen.

Das nehmt ihr mit:

• Bewertungskriterien aus strategischen Zielen ableiten
• AI Use Cases strukturierter bewerten und priorisieren
• Entscheidungen nachvollziehbar begründen und diskutieren
• Mehr Sicherheit beim eigenen Ja oder Nein zu AI Use Cases
