**"Surviving Corporate Culture for Developers" - Jon Baggaley**

Tonight, we are delighted to host Adrian Smith and his talk on Data Governance, followed by Jon Baggaley, long time friend of the meet up group presenting his talk on Surviving Corporate Culture as a Developer.

**Talk 1:**

Getting buy-in for a data management & governance programs can be hard.

This is a candid look at what can wrong when organisations do not take their Data Quality, Master Data Management, Security, Meta, and Ownership and Responsibility seriously.

Tonight Adrian will share a personal collection from over 20 years of experience in data, tales donated from colleagues, and famous cases you might not have made a connection with.

**Talk 2:**

Fed up with pointless stand-ups, endless refactoring, and micromanagement of your development tasks? Join us to explore clever, developer-friendly tactics for taking back control, cutting through the noise, and adding a bit of rebellion to your daily workflow! Join us for a light-hearted look at sparking change from the inside out!
