<hr />
<div>'''What is it?''' -- Multiple team meetings, happening in the same city, at the same time + some opportunity to get together as one big group as well as with other teams as it makes sense. Then, on the last day, we have a fun social event for all, Mozilla-style! <br />
<br />
'''''The information on this wiki primarily applies to Full time and contractor staff. If you are a volunteer contributor or intern, please inquire to your coordinator. '''''<br />
<br />
=='''Dates, Location and Weather'''==<br />
Monday, June 11 - Friday, June 15, 2018 (travel days are Monday the 11th & Saturday the 16th) in San Francisco, CA.<br />
<br />
We are staying at [http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/sfodt-san-francisco-marriott-marquis/ San Francisco Marriott Marquis].<br />
<br />
''*For those countries where rest time is required on weekends (vs. work travel), Mozilla will cover a return on the next available work day, if you choose. This needs to be pre-approved and pre-arranged.''<br />
<br />
Weather:<br />
* National Weather Service: [http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?smap=1&lat=37.785&lon=-122.410&unit=1&mp=1 forecast in ⁰C], [http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?smap=1&lat=37.785&lon=-122.410&mp=1 forecast in ⁰F]<br />
* Temperatures ''in downtown San Francisco'' in late June are likely to have nighttime lows around 10-13 ⁰C / 50-56 ⁰F and daytime highs around 16-24 ⁰C / 61-75 ⁰F. But the weather is very occasionally warmer with highs around 27⁰C / 81⁰F. (Update June 7: It looks *possible* that at least part of the week will be at the warm end of this range, or possibly warmer.)<br />
* Weather in San Francisco in the summer is variable; it can become substantially cooler and foggier in the late afternoon; be prepared for temperatures to fall to 13⁰C / 56⁰F and the winds to pick up in the afternoon. Be prepared by carrying a warmer layer with you.<br />
* Weather in other parts of the Bay Area can be much warmer than in San Francisco, even if you're only traveling 15km away. Look at the weather forecasts for where you're going. It's entirely possible for it to be 19⁰C / 66⁰F in San Francisco and simultaneously be 32⁰C / 90⁰F in Orinda. But if you're right on the ocean, the air temperature is likely to match the water temperature, which is probably around 12⁰C / 54⁰F.<br />
<br />
=='''Registration & Badge Pick Up'''==<br />

<br />
Don't see stuff for your org yet? Don't fret! The schedule changes regularly as meetings and events are confirmed. Keep checking back. <br />
<br />
=====Create an account=====<br />
We don’t recommend using the same email & password as anything like bank accounts, etc. We care about your security!<br />
<br />
If you already have a Sched account from past All Hands, it still works, just log in with that.<br />
<br />
=====Add items to your calendar=====<br />
Select the circle on any agenda item to add it to your calendar (you do need to have an account & be logged in to do this)<br />
<br />
You can also share a link to meetings to invite others. Go into the meeting and copy the short link. You can email that out to anyone and they can quickly add it to their calendar.<br />
<br />
=====Subscribe to GCal Calendar Link=====<br />
Click on the mobile phone on the right hand side of the screen. All the calendar options are available here. <br />

<br />
The "only syncs once per day" only applies to Google Calendar. With almost all other clients (like Apple Calendar, Outlook, or the calendar app on your phone) you can set the refresh interval, and Sched's instructions recommend 1 hour.<br />
<br />
Warning: This is a link that utilizes your username for the .ics file.<br />

<br />
'''Further Filtering'''<br />
*Audience - who should be there (ex: Team only or Invite)<br />
*Homerooms (you can quickly see what is happening in homerooms, by team) - why do you care? If you have a cross team meeting in their room, its a quick way to search<br />
*Views - Lots of view options. It defaults to the simple view, but there are quite a few options.<br />
<br />

<br />
===Monday Night===<br />
Since most of Monday is a travel day, you'll be on your own for meals except dinner. We will provide dinner at the Welcome Reception from 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm at City View by Meteron.<br />
<br />
Watch for greeters in the hotel lobby and on the street to get you in the right place. This is our first time leaving the hotel on the first night. <br />
<br />
We'll have badge pick up available for the duration of the reception right outside the entrance, if you miss picking it up at the hotel until 6:00 pm.<br />
<br />
===Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday Nights===<br />
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings will be of your own to structure as you wish. Given how much you all seemed to like a more flexible dining experience, these three evenings will be of your own to structure as you wish.<br />
<br />
Here is how this will work:<br />
<br />
For each of these three evenings, once your meetings have concluded, you and your team, friends, new acquaintances, are free to explore San Francisco and to find somewhere great to eat that suits you. Each of you can expense a total of $180 over the three days (or $60/night).<br />
<br />
This amount includes:<br />
* Meal cost, including tax & gratuity<br />
* Any beverages<br />
* Transportation to/from the restaurant<br />
* Conversion fees (for credit cards) or cash withdrawal fees<br />
<br />
Anything over the $180 for the three evenings will be your own expense. The fine print:<br />
* If your team is hosting an evening event 1 of the 3 nights and the payment is coordinated (meaning, you don’t have to open your wallet and pay), you can expense up to $120 for the other 2 nights ($60 for each of the 2 nights you did have to open your wallet and pay).<br />
* You will be asked (later) to submit a San Francisco only expense report. You can submit ONE report for San Francisco only and must be submitted no later than August 31, 2018.<br />
* If your manager approves expenses above the $60 per night, that expense will go directly to your travel budget in your cost center.<br />
<br />
Volunteer Contributors & Interns will have a separate process that will be communicated directly.<br />
<br />
===Friday Night===<br />
We will provide dinner at the Closing Party from 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm at The Exploratorium.<br />
<br />
*Shuttles - 6:45 pm - 11:05 pm, Marriott & Exploratorium<br />
*Dinner - 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm, East, West & Central Galleries<br />
*Dessert & some snacks - 7:00 pm - 10:30pm, East, West & Central Galleries<br />
*Drinks - 7:00 pm - 10:45 pm, All galleries<br />
*Exhibits & Tactile Dome - 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm, All galleries<br />
*Photobooths - 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm, West & Central galleries<br />
*DJ & Dancing on an LED floor - 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm, Central Gallery<br />

<br />
====='''Getting there (and back)'''=====<br />
Shuttles will pick up from the Marriott starting at 6:45 pm. Shuttles will loop between the Marriott and Exploratorium all evening, with the last departure back to the hotel at 11:05 pm. You can come and go as it works for you.<br />
<br />
====='''What to Wear'''=====<br />
Whatever makes you comfortable + your event badge will be required to board the transportation and enter the venue + photo ID.<br />
<br />
====='''Guests'''=====<br />
Guests will require a guest badge. Please make sure to pick up badges for pre-registered guests at the desk by 3:00 pm on Friday.Not sure you pre-registered your guest(s)? Email mozilla@shworldwide.com and they can confirm for you. We can add guests until Friday, June 8.<br />
<br />
====='''Coat Check'''=====<br />
We will not have a coat check. Do not bring anything you do not want to carry.<br />
<br />

<br />
All things social: #sfallhands<br />
<br />
Add your own photos to our [https://www.flickr.com/groups/allhandsjune2018/ Flickr group]<br />
<br />
=='''Photos'''==<br />
==== Red Lanyards ====<br />
If you see someone with a red lanyard, please don't take photos of them. They have opted out of being in photography. We'll have these available at the registration desk.<br />
<br />
====Flickr====<br />
Add your own photos to our [https://www.flickr.com/groups/allhandsjune2018/ Flickr group]<br />
<br />
=='''Safety & Security'''==<br />
<br />
=====Personal Security=====<br />
While in the Mozilla meeting spaces and meal spaces, a name badge is required. <br />
<br />
When you leave the hotel, you should remove your badge. Pickpocketers have been known to target people wear conference badges in the neighborhood we are in.<br />
<br />
=====Alcohol at Events=====<br />
To better support and sustain an environment (and workplace culture) where people feel safe and included, we plan make a set of changes regarding alcohol at our events. In all cases, our approach will align with our [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/governance/policies/participation/ Community Participation Guidelines] (“CPG”).<br />
*All participants were/are '''required to read and acknowledge our new Community Participation Guidelines as a condition of participation'''.<br />
*We will '''limit bar-servings to beer and wine''' and ensure an equal number and quality (i.e. not just Coke) of non-alcoholic drink options are available and displayed.<br />
*When teams undertake smaller, “off campus” adventures (team dinners or events), leaders will be asked (and reminded) to be '''thoughtful about the potential exclusionary nature of alcohol when planning'''.<br />
*Clearly outlined, communicated (to event teams, HR and managers) and understood '''escalation process''' for behavior that might be deemed counter to the spirit of our CPG.<br />
<br />
=====Meeting Security=====<br />
You'll need to have your badge on at all times in the hotel, as will your partners, vendors and family members anytime they are in the spaces.<br />
<br />
=====Device Security=====<br />
If you are traveling to the San Francisco All Hands with a device that has Mozilla data (laptop, personal cell phone/tablet with @mozilla gmail, etc) on it and your device has been retained for further inspection by border agents, or if your device has been inspected outside your immediate presence - and you believe your credentials have been compromised - you must notify the Enterprise Information Security team as soon as possible at infosec@mozilla.com or by calling Mozilla End User Services at +1 650-963-8811. (This number will be staffed 24x7)<br />
<br />
We will work with you to reset your credentials and help you get your device back to a known good state either by getting you a new one (if it’s been taken), or by resetting it back to a verifiable Mozilla-approved installation.<br />
<br />
=====Safety Tips=====<br />
SF Travel team also has some [http://www.sftravel.com/safety-tips-convention-attendees tips about safety] in the city, including safety numbers and local hospitals.<br />
<br />
=='''Hotel'''==<br />
Hotel rooms are reserved for all employees & volunteers to stay all week, including employees based in San Francisco (just as if we were somewhere you don't live). We are hopeful Mozilla-locals will stay with the rest of us in the hotel - it's really part of what makes these events great. You will have the option to opt out of hotel in registration if you are local to the Bay Area and wish to commute. <br />
<br />
====Conservation Efforts====<br />
*Marriott offers "Make a Green Choice" program and you can be rewarded 500 Marriott Rewards points or $5 Food and Beverage voucher for every night that you choose not to have your room cleaned. Should you wish to sign up for this Green Initiative, you may do so when you check in. <br />
*In an effort to become a Zero waste hotel by 2020, The Marriott does not offer any bottled water inside the guest rooms or meeting rooms. Flowater stations offering electrolyte infused and alkaline water are available in the Lobby and 2nd Floor (near the elevators) + water stations are available in each of the meeting rooms. <br />
<br />
====Hotel Confirmations====<br />
The Marriott has processed reservations for staff, contractors and interns. Confirmation emails were sent from: Marriott Hotels & Resorts Reservations <reservations@marriott-res.com>. <br />
<br />
If you do not receive a hotel confirmation email by May 18th, please email mozilla@shworldwide.com (after checking your spam collector). If you registered after April 27, your confirmation may arrive later. <br />
<br />
''Reservations for volunteers are still pending and confirmation emails have not been sent.''<br />
<br />
A few things to note:<br />
*If you have any changes or questions about your reservation, email mozilla@shworldwide.com. The hotel cannot make changes to All Hands reservations (other than to add your guests - see #3) so we’d like very much if you didn’t try (it complicates things).<br />
*If you have guests joining you for all or part of the week, you will be responsible for adding them to your reservation (and covering any additional fees). <br />
*Volunteers, summer interns and outreachy interns will be sharing rooms.<br />
<br />
====Payment on Check-in====<br />
Everyone will be required to present a form of payment on check-in for incidentals at $50 per day. This is a US hotel standard and we aren't able to waive it (we tried).<br />
<br />
We recommend providing a credit card. You can provide a debit card, but they do put a hold of funds on your card and has been problematic for some international travelers in the past. If you are not able to provide a credit or debit card, email mozilla@shworldwide.com and we'll work with the hotel on accommodating. <br />
<br />
====Pre/post====<br />
Links were provided when you are invited to register in April to book hotel 3 days pre and 3 days post at our negotiated rate. The pre/post reservations require the use of an LDAP email so we can link them to your All Hands reservation. Rooms booked by any method except this link will not be linked to your main reservation. Reservations via those links are no longer available, as of May 18, 2018.<br />
<br />
====Parking====<br />
Self-Parking is available at several lots nearby. [ http://www.fifthandmission.com/map.htm 5th & Mission Garage] is the closest option, reccomended by the hotel. It is $34/night. The Marriott Marquis offers valet only for $80/night - please do not park valet. <br />
<br />
Mozilla will not reimburse for parking, plan to commute the way you normally would in the city. If you have questions about parking, email bmark@mozilla.com.<br />
<br />
=='''Travel'''==<br />
====Arriving into San Francisco====<br />
'''Travel Delays, Cancellations, etc.'''<br />
<br />
If your flight is delayed or cancelled, work with the airline in the airport to get re-booked. If you’re cancellation or delay will impact your arrive time by >6 hours, you must email mozilla@shworldwide.com so we can adjust your hotel reservation. If you don’t do this, the hotel will cancel it.<br />
<br />
'''Device Security'''<br />
<br />
In the unlikely event you are asked to surrender a device to border agents (anything with Mozilla data on it), notify the Enterprise Information Security team as soon as possible at infosec@mozilla.com or by calling Mozilla End User Services at +1 650-963-8811. (This number will be staffed 24x7)<br />
<br />
====Arriving Early/Departing Late Guidelines====<br />
<br />
Our standard travel guidelines apply (pre-populated in Egencia) when booking with a few additional budget constraints. Anything booked outside of them will require approval. Most people will arrive on Monday, June 11 and leave on Saturday, June 16. Here are some exceptions: <br />
* If you live in a country where work travel is prohibited on weekends, you may travel on Friday, June 8 and Monday, June 18, if you’d prefer (not required). For hotel, you will book and pay on your own, and expense the manager approved amount (which is coded to your cost center).<br />
* If you plan to spend some extra personal time in San Francisco (choosing to arrive before Monday, June 11 or depart after Saturday, June 16), you'll need to create an itinerary in Egencia for standard dates/locations within the San Francisco June 2018 Portal and compare to the custom dates you'd like. Please share the difference via email to bmark@mozilla.com before submitting the flight. You can sway up to +$100 over and Mozilla will cover it. Otherwise you'll need to come with an alternate itinerary that fits within the pricing (like a round trip in and out of SFO w/ longer dates, and you personally book & cover the rest). We do not have the ability for employees to reimburse Mozilla for any overage.<br />
* If you are attending the Monday Core Influencer's event (by invite).<br />
* If you would like to arrive early to recover from jetlag, you will need manager approval for any additional costs associated with the extension. There is no unilateral "All Hands" approval based upon timezone to arrive early. For hotel, you will book and pay on your own, and expense the manager approved amount (which is coded to your cost center).<br />
<br />
====Booking Family Travel====<br />
Once travel has opened to staff, you may book family, whether they will accompany you on your flight or join us later; and you have two options: Direct or through Egencia. <br />
<br />
If you choose to book family through Egencia, please first book your own flight and then call Egencia with your airline confirmation number (staff do have to go through Egencia). Otherwise, you can book family direct (either through the airline or through another third party) and call the ticketing airline(s) with both confirmation numbers and ask them to link your reservations, so they know you are traveling together. They should also be able to assign seats together. You will avoid the limited hours Egencia offers and avoid paying their ticketing fee. <br />
<br />
If you prefer to book your family through Egencia, you can pay (including the Egencia booking fees) and coordinate with your own travel (recommend to book and then call/email Egencia with your itinerary number to match for family). Note that booking through Egencia does not put you on the same reservation, nor guarantee the reservations will be linked (you would still need to call the airline to link them). <br />
<br />
''Volunteers, summer interns and outreachy interns will be sharing rooms and are unable to invite family to join them.'' <br />
<br />
* '''Call:''' +1 (877) 264-1622 or +1 (417) 521-0273; Monday - Friday 9 am - 6 pm EST. If you call outside these hours, you will get an after hours agent, who may not be as helpful.<br />
<br />
====Travel Insurance====<br />
Mozilla provides emergency medical accident and illness cover for all global MoCo employees/interns and their dependents. You can view more information on [https://mana.mozilla.org/wiki/display/PR/Travel+insurance%3A+Business Mana]. This coverage begins at the time the you leave home to start your business trip. It also has a provision for a 14 day extension for leisure travel outside of the business travel. If you have additional questions, please email benefits@mozilla.com. <br />
<br />
Mozilla does not cover travel insurance for elancers, upworkers, contractors, vendors, or volunteers/community members.<br />
<br />
=====''Air Travel Fine Print''=====<br />
*Change fees will be covered by Mozilla for '''business reasons only'''. If you need a change and have manager approval, email bmark@mozilla.com prior to requesting the change with Egencia. Once you have approval, call Egencia to make the change at +1 (702) 939-2530 or +1-877-264-1622 (note this will not be possible without prior approval so be sure to get that by way of an email from your manager to Brianna Mark). If you are changing for personal reasons, the change in airfare, change fee and Egencia fee is your responsibility.<br />
<br />
*Mozilla will not reimburse for Business/First class upgrades or tickets. <br />
<br />
*Any submitted expenses needs to have an itinerary attached to ensure it is employee expenses only and within policy.<br />

<br />
=='''Dates, Location and Weather'''==<br />
Monday, June 11 - Friday, June 15, 2018 (travel days are Monday the 11th & Saturday the 16th) in San Francisco, CA.<br />
<br />
We are staying at [http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/sfodt-san-francisco-marriott-marquis/ San Francisco Marriott Marquis].<br />
<br />
''*For those countries where rest time is required on weekends (vs. work travel), Mozilla will cover a return on the next available work day, if you choose. This needs to be pre-approved and pre-arranged.''<br />
<br />
Weather:<br />
* National Weather Service: [http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?smap=1&lat=37.785&lon=-122.410&unit=1&mp=1 forecast in ⁰C], [http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?smap=1&lat=37.785&lon=-122.410&mp=1 forecast in ⁰F]<br />
* Temperatures ''in downtown San Francisco'' in late June are likely to have nighttime lows around 10-13 ⁰C / 50-56 ⁰F and daytime highs around 16-24 ⁰C / 61-75 ⁰F. But the weather is very occasionally warmer with highs around 27⁰C / 81⁰F. (Update June 7: It looks *possible* that at least part of the week will be at the warm end of this range, or possibly warmer.)<br />
* Weather in San Francisco in the summer is variable; it can become substantially cooler and foggier in the late afternoon; be prepared for temperatures to fall to 13⁰C / 56⁰F and the winds to pick up in the afternoon. Be prepared by carrying a warmer layer with you.<br />
* Weather in other parts of the Bay Area can be much warmer than in San Francisco, even if you're only traveling 15km away. Look at the weather forecasts for where you're going. It's entirely possible for it to be 19⁰C / 66⁰F in San Francisco and simultaneously be 32⁰C / 90⁰F in Orinda. But if you're right on the ocean, the air temperature is likely to match the water temperature, which is probably around 12⁰C / 54⁰F.<br />

<br />
===Monday Night===<br />
Since most of Monday is a travel day, you'll be on your own for meals except dinner. We will provide dinner at the Welcome Reception from 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm at City View by Meteron.<br />
<br />
Watch for greeters in the hotel lobby and on the street to get you in the right place. This is our first time leaving the hotel on the first night. <br />
<br />
We'll have badge pick up available for the duration of the reception right outside the entrance, if you miss picking it up at the hotel until 6:00 pm.<br />
<br />
===Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday Nights===<br />
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings will be of your own to structure as you wish. Given how much you all seemed to like a more flexible dining experience, these three evenings will be of your own to structure as you wish.<br />
<br />
Here is how this will work:<br />
<br />
For each of these three evenings, once your meetings have concluded, you and your team, friends, new acquaintances, are free to explore San Francisco and to find somewhere great to eat that suits you. Each of you can expense a total of $180 over the three days (or $60/night).<br />
<br />
This amount includes:<br />
* Meal cost, including tax & gratuity<br />
* Any beverages<br />
* Transportation to/from the restaurant<br />
* Conversion fees (for credit cards) or cash withdrawal fees<br />
<br />
Anything over the $180 for the three evenings will be your own expense. The fine print:<br />
* If your team is hosting an evening event 1 of the 3 nights and the payment is coordinated (meaning, you don’t have to open your wallet and pay), you can expense up to $120 for the other 2 nights ($60 for each of the 2 nights you did have to open your wallet and pay).<br />
* You will be asked (later) to submit a San Francisco only expense report. You can submit ONE report for San Francisco only and must be submitted no later than August 31, 2018.<br />
* If your manager approves expenses above the $60 per night, that expense will go directly to your travel budget in your cost center.<br />
<br />
Volunteer Contributors & Interns will have a separate process that will be communicated directly.<br />
<br />
===Friday Night===<br />
We will provide dinner at the Closing Party from 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm at The Exploratorium.<br />
<br />
*Shuttles - 6:45 pm - 11:05 pm, Marriott & Exploratorium<br />
*Dinner - 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm, East, West & Central Galleries<br />
*Dessert & some snacks - 7:00 pm - 10:30pm, East, West & Central Galleries<br />
*Drinks - 7:00 pm - 10:45 pm, All galleries<br />
*Exhibits & Tactile Dome - 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm, All galleries<br />
*Photobooths - 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm, West & Central galleries<br />
*DJ & Dancing on an LED floor - 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm, Central Gallery<br />
*Quiet(er) space + Bay views - 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm, Fisher Bay Observatory<br />
<br />
====='''Getting there (and back)'''=====<br />
Shuttles will pick up from the Marriott starting at 6:45 pm. Shuttles will loop between the Marriott and Exploratorium all evening, with the last departure back to the hotel at 11:05 pm. You can come and go as it works for you.<br />
<br />
====='''What to Wear'''=====<br />
Whatever makes you comfortable + your event badge will be required to board the transportation and enter the venue + photo ID.<br />
<br />
====='''Guests'''=====<br />
Guests will require a guest badge. Please make sure to pick up badges for pre-registered guests at the desk by 3:00 pm on Friday.Not sure you pre-registered your guest(s)? Email mozilla@shworldwide.com and they can confirm for you. We can add guests until Friday, June 8.<br />
<br />
====='''Coat Check'''=====<br />
We will not have a coat check. Do not bring anything you do not want to carry.<br />
<br />

=='''Safety & Security'''==<br />
<br />
=====Personal Security=====<br />
While in the Mozilla meeting spaces and meal spaces, a name badge is required. <br />
<br />
When you leave the hotel, you should remove your badge. Pickpocketers have been known to target people wear conference badges in the neighborhood we are in.<br />
<br />
=====Alcohol at Events=====<br />
To better support and sustain an environment (and workplace culture) where people feel safe and included, we plan make a set of changes regarding alcohol at our events. In all cases, our approach will align with our [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/governance/policies/participation/ Community Participation Guidelines] (“CPG”).<br />
*All participants were/are '''required to read and acknowledge our new Community Participation Guidelines as a condition of participation'''.<br />
*We will '''limit bar-servings to beer and wine''' and ensure an equal number and quality (i.e. not just Coke) of non-alcoholic drink options are available and displayed.<br />
*When teams undertake smaller, “off campus” adventures (team dinners or events), leaders will be asked (and reminded) to be '''thoughtful about the potential exclusionary nature of alcohol when planning'''.<br />
*Clearly outlined, communicated (to event teams, HR and managers) and understood '''escalation process''' for behavior that might be deemed counter to the spirit of our CPG.<br />
<br />
=====Meeting Security=====<br />
You'll need to have your badge on at all times in the hotel, as will your partners, vendors and family members anytime they are in the spaces.<br />
<br />
=====Device Security=====<br />
If you are traveling to the San Francisco All Hands with a device that has Mozilla data (laptop, personal cell phone/tablet with @mozilla gmail, etc) on it and your device has been retained for further inspection by border agents, or if your device has been inspected outside your immediate presence - and you believe your credentials have been compromised - you must notify the Enterprise Information Security team as soon as possible at infosec@mozilla.com or by calling Mozilla End User Services at +1 650-963-8811. (This number will be staffed 24x7)<br />
<br />
We will work with you to reset your credentials and help you get your device back to a known good state either by getting you a new one (if it’s been taken), or by resetting it back to a verifiable Mozilla-approved installation.<br />
<br />
=====Safety Tips=====<br />
SF Travel team also has some [http://www.sftravel.com/safety-tips-convention-attendees tips about safety] in the city, including safety numbers and local hospitals.<br />
<br />
=='''Hotel'''==<br />
Hotel rooms are reserved for all employees & volunteers to stay all week, including employees based in San Francisco (just as if we were somewhere you don't live). We are hopeful Mozilla-locals will stay with the rest of us in the hotel - it's really part of what makes these events great. You will have the option to opt out of hotel in registration if you are local to the Bay Area and wish to commute. <br />
<br />
====Conservation Efforts====<br />
*Marriott offers "Make a Green Choice" program and you can be rewarded 500 Marriott Rewards points or $5 Food and Beverage voucher for every night that you choose not to have your room cleaned. Should you wish to sign up for this Green Initiative, you may do so when you check in. <br />
*In an effort to become a Zero waste hotel by 2020, The Marriott does not offer any bottled water inside the guest rooms or meeting rooms. Flowater stations offering electrolyte infused and alkaline water are available in the Lobby and 2nd Floor (near the elevators) + water stations are available in each of the meeting rooms. <br />
<br />
====Hotel Confirmations====<br />
The Marriott has processed reservations for staff, contractors and interns. Confirmation emails were sent from: Marriott Hotels & Resorts Reservations <reservations@marriott-res.com>. <br />
<br />
If you do not receive a hotel confirmation email by May 18th, please email mozilla@shworldwide.com (after checking your spam collector). If you registered after April 27, your confirmation may arrive later. <br />
<br />
''Reservations for volunteers are still pending and confirmation emails have not been sent.''<br />
<br />
A few things to note:<br />
*If you have any changes or questions about your reservation, email mozilla@shworldwide.com. The hotel cannot make changes to All Hands reservations (other than to add your guests - see #3) so we’d like very much if you didn’t try (it complicates things).<br />
*If you have guests joining you for all or part of the week, you will be responsible for adding them to your reservation (and covering any additional fees). <br />
*Volunteers, summer interns and outreachy interns will be sharing rooms.<br />
<br />
====Payment on Check-in====<br />
Everyone will be required to present a form of payment on check-in for incidentals at $50 per day. This is a US hotel standard and we aren't able to waive it (we tried).<br />
<br />
We recommend providing a credit card. You can provide a debit card, but they do put a hold of funds on your card and has been problematic for some international travelers in the past. If you are not able to provide a credit or debit card, email mozilla@shworldwide.com and we'll work with the hotel on accommodating. <br />
<br />
====Pre/post====<br />
Links were provided when you are invited to register in April to book hotel 3 days pre and 3 days post at our negotiated rate. The pre/post reservations require the use of an LDAP email so we can link them to your All Hands reservation. Rooms booked by any method except this link will not be linked to your main reservation. Reservations via those links are no longer available, as of May 18, 2018.<br />
<br />
====Parking====<br />
Self-Parking is available at several lots nearby. [ http://www.fifthandmission.com/map.htm 5th & Mission Garage] is the closest option, reccomended by the hotel. It is $34/night. The Marriott Marquis offers valet only for $80/night - please do not park valet. <br />
<br />
Mozilla will not reimburse for parking, plan to commute the way you normally would in the city. If you have questions about parking, email bmark@mozilla.com.<br />
<br />
=='''Travel'''==<br />
====Arriving into San Francisco====<br />
'''Travel Delays, Cancellations, etc.'''<br />
<br />
If your flight is delayed or cancelled, work with the airline in the airport to get re-booked. If you’re cancellation or delay will impact your arrive time by >6 hours, you must email mozilla@shworldwide.com so we can adjust your hotel reservation. If you don’t do this, the hotel will cancel it.<br />
<br />
'''Device Security'''<br />
<br />
In the unlikely event you are asked to surrender a device to border agents (anything with Mozilla data on it), notify the Enterprise Information Security team as soon as possible at infosec@mozilla.com or by calling Mozilla End User Services at +1 650-963-8811. (This number will be staffed 24x7)<br />
<br />
====Arriving Early/Departing Late Guidelines====<br />
<br />
Our standard travel guidelines apply (pre-populated in Egencia) when booking with a few additional budget constraints. Anything booked outside of them will require approval. Most people will arrive on Monday, June 11 and leave on Saturday, June 16. Here are some exceptions: <br />
* If you live in a country where work travel is prohibited on weekends, you may travel on Friday, June 8 and Monday, June 18, if you’d prefer (not required). For hotel, you will book and pay on your own, and expense the manager approved amount (which is coded to your cost center).<br />
* If you plan to spend some extra personal time in San Francisco (choosing to arrive before Monday, June 11 or depart after Saturday, June 16), you'll need to create an itinerary in Egencia for standard dates/locations within the San Francisco June 2018 Portal and compare to the custom dates you'd like. Please share the difference via email to bmark@mozilla.com before submitting the flight. You can sway up to +$100 over and Mozilla will cover it. Otherwise you'll need to come with an alternate itinerary that fits within the pricing (like a round trip in and out of SFO w/ longer dates, and you personally book & cover the rest). We do not have the ability for employees to reimburse Mozilla for any overage.<br />
* If you are attending the Monday Core Influencer's event (by invite).<br />
* If you would like to arrive early to recover from jetlag, you will need manager approval for any additional costs associated with the extension. There is no unilateral "All Hands" approval based upon timezone to arrive early. For hotel, you will book and pay on your own, and expense the manager approved amount (which is coded to your cost center).<br />
<br />
====Booking Family Travel====<br />
Once travel has opened to staff, you may book family, whether they will accompany you on your flight or join us later; and you have two options: Direct or through Egencia. <br />
<br />
If you choose to book family through Egencia, please first book your own flight and then call Egencia with your airline confirmation number (staff do have to go through Egencia). Otherwise, you can book family direct (either through the airline or through another third party) and call the ticketing airline(s) with both confirmation numbers and ask them to link your reservations, so they know you are traveling together. They should also be able to assign seats together. You will avoid the limited hours Egencia offers and avoid paying their ticketing fee. <br />
<br />
If you prefer to book your family through Egencia, you can pay (including the Egencia booking fees) and coordinate with your own travel (recommend to book and then call/email Egencia with your itinerary number to match for family). Note that booking through Egencia does not put you on the same reservation, nor guarantee the reservations will be linked (you would still need to call the airline to link them). <br />
<br />
''Volunteers, summer interns and outreachy interns will be sharing rooms and are unable to invite family to join them.'' <br />
<br />
* '''Call:''' +1 (877) 264-1622 or +1 (417) 521-0273; Monday - Friday 9 am - 6 pm EST. If you call outside these hours, you will get an after hours agent, who may not be as helpful.<br />
<br />
====Travel Insurance====<br />
Mozilla provides emergency medical accident and illness cover for all global MoCo employees/interns and their dependents. You can view more information on [https://mana.mozilla.org/wiki/display/PR/Travel+insurance%3A+Business Mana]. This coverage begins at the time the you leave home to start your business trip. It also has a provision for a 14 day extension for leisure travel outside of the business travel. If you have additional questions, please email benefits@mozilla.com. <br />
<br />
Mozilla does not cover travel insurance for elancers, upworkers, contractors, vendors, or volunteers/community members.<br />
<br />
=====''Air Travel Fine Print''=====<br />
*Change fees will be covered by Mozilla for '''business reasons only'''. If you need a change and have manager approval, email bmark@mozilla.com prior to requesting the change with Egencia. Once you have approval, call Egencia to make the change at +1 (702) 939-2530 or +1-877-264-1622 (note this will not be possible without prior approval so be sure to get that by way of an email from your manager to Brianna Mark). If you are changing for personal reasons, the change in airfare, change fee and Egencia fee is your responsibility.<br />
<br />
*Mozilla will not reimburse for Business/First class upgrades or tickets. <br />
<br />
*Any submitted expenses needs to have an itinerary attached to ensure it is employee expenses only and within policy.<br />
<br />
=='''Airport Shuttle'''==<br />
All Mozillians and guests who have flights arriving anytime on Monday, June 11th in San Francisco International Airport (SFO) and out on Saturday, June 16th, will be transferred to the hotel.

This [https://mana.mozilla.org/wiki/display/PR/Travel+FAQ FAQ] addresses questions about how to handle security concerns and electronic devices at the border and how to engage with US Customs & Border Protection (CBP). While it specifically focuses on concerns related to travel to the United States, much of this guidance is applicable to travel elsewhere. Mana access required.<br />
<br />
=====Pocket Letter=====<br />
A pocket letter is recommended to keep on hand for those who are entering the United States. It should accompany you whether or not you are required to have a visa to enter. You may request a copy of that letter when you register online. Please contact immigration@mozilla.com if you require a specific letter for your visa application or if you have any questions regarding your citizenship, visa capabilities or travel related questions.<br />
<br />
=====ESTA Point of Contact=====<br />
In the ESTA application you need to give a "U.S. Point of Contact Information". <br />
<br />
Please list Casey McGill as your US Point of Contact.<br />

=='''San Francisco All Hands Expense Policy'''==<br />
1. All "All Hands" Expenses must be submitted on 1 (and only 1) Expense report (e.g. San Francisco All Hands Expense Report)<br />
<br />
2. It must contain only those expenses relative to the All Hands Event (5-10 days of pre-post activity only)<br />
<br />
3. If your submitted expense report for All Hands is submitted outside these guidelines, it will be rejected and you will be asked to re-submit with only All Hands Expenses<br />
<br />
4. The deadline to submit the San Francisco All Hands Expense Report is '''July 31, 2018'''.<br />
<br />
5. Expenses related to team events, parking, room service, mini-bar charges, and food/drink costs above the vouched amounts, will not be approved. <br />
<br />
'''The intention of our all hands are to centrally organize a structure that includes:'''<br />
*Meals (two/day + snacks)<br />
*Transportation^<br />
*Accommodations<br />
*Some number of social events<br />
<br />
Due to the nature of the San Francisco, employees will be expensing specific meals. The amount that can be expensed will be communicated and expenses submitted can not exceed the approved amounts. Any social events that are not part of our central plan will generally be self-organized and funded by participants. <br />
<br />
^Transportation for those based in the Bay Area is limited to "commuting" as you normally would. Expenses for commuting are not reimbursable. We have provided shuttles from the MV office for those based in the south bay. For those who that doesn't make sense to use, commute using your normal means. We will not reimburse for hotel parking. <br />
<br />
=====Cell phone reimbursement policy=====<br />
Cell phone reimbursement must be approved by your manager prior to submitting the expense. Teams will decide for their staff what is appropriate to expense. <br />
<br />
=====Internet reimbursement policy=====<br />
Internet will be provided in all guestrooms and meeting space in all hotels. If you opt to upgrade/add service, those costs are not reimbursable, unless previously approved by your manager and are for business reasons. <br />
<br />
If you have questions about any of this, please reach out to bmark@mozilla.com<br />
<br />
=='''Families/Guests in San Francisco'''==<br />
<br />
Of course our focus, for the majority of the week, will be on Mozilla. Everyone is expected to be present and engaged each day, during work hours (as your schedule dictates). Please do what you can to make sure your loved ones understand the kind of commitment you’ve made. Family should not join you during your work sessions and meals. Please note that what we are able to do for families varies by each location. <br />
<br />
''Volunteers, summer interns and outreachy interns will be sharing rooms and are unable to invite family to join them.'' <br />
<br />
===Quick summary logistics===<br />
<br />
==== Badges ====<br />
All guests over 5 years old need to wear a badge when they are with us. We love the littles under 5 too, they don't need a badge. (really, we just don't have additional fees for them, and that's all it really is. If they really want a badge, we can get them one!) You can pick up badges all week.<br />
<br />
==== Meals ====<br />
Guests are welcome to join you for (we just ask that you let us know they'll be there in registration):<br />
*The Welcome Reception (Monday)<br />
*Breakfast (Tuesday - Saturday)<br />
*The Closing Event at the Exploratorium (Friday)<br />
We kindly ask that they have lunch on their own each day. Invitations to team dinners are handled individually<br />
<br />
====Air Travel====<br />
Family travel can be booked/coordinated through Egencia by calling direct; or on your own. Employees do need to book via Egencia regardless of how families are booked.<br />
<br />
==== Hotel ====<br />
They are welcome to stay with you, however, any additional room expenses will be yours to cover. All room rates are based upon single occupancy and costs to add guests vary by hotel. Breakfast is not included in any of the guest room rates. Once hotel reservations are made, we will provide a link or contact add guests.<br />

<br />
=='''Dates, Location and Weather'''==<br />
Monday, June 11 - Friday, June 15, 2018 (travel days are Monday the 11th & Saturday the 16th) in San Francisco, CA.<br />
<br />
We are staying at [http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/sfodt-san-francisco-marriott-marquis/ San Francisco Marriott Marquis].<br />
<br />
''*For those countries where rest time is required on weekends (vs. work travel), Mozilla will cover a return on the next available work day, if you choose. This needs to be pre-approved and pre-arranged.''<br />
<br />
Weather:<br />
* National Weather Service: [http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?smap=1&lat=37.785&lon=-122.410&unit=1&mp=1 forecast in ⁰C], [http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?smap=1&lat=37.785&lon=-122.410&mp=1 forecast in ⁰F]<br />
* Temperatures ''in downtown San Francisco'' in late June are likely to have nighttime lows around 10-13 ⁰C / 50-56 ⁰F and daytime highs around 16-24 ⁰C / 61-75 ⁰F. But the weather is very occasionally warmer with highs around 27⁰C / 81⁰F. (Update June 7: It looks *possible* that at least part of the week will be at the warm end of this range, or possibly warmer.)<br />
* Weather in San Francisco in the summer is variable; it can become substantially cooler and foggier in the late afternoon; be prepared for temperatures to fall to 13⁰C / 56⁰F and the winds to pick up in the afternoon. Be prepared by carrying a warmer layer with you.<br />
* Weather in other parts of the Bay Area can be much warmer than in San Francisco, even if you're only traveling 15km away. Look at the weather forecasts for where you're going. It's entirely possible for it to be 19⁰C / 66⁰F in San Francisco and simultaneously be 32⁰C / 90⁰F in Orinda. But if you're right on the ocean, the air temperature is likely to match the water temperature, which is probably around 12⁰C / 54⁰F.<br />

<br />
===Monday Night===<br />
Since most of Monday is a travel day, you'll be on your own for meals except dinner. We will provide dinner at the Welcome Reception from 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm at City View by Meteron.<br />
<br />
Watch for greeters in the hotel lobby and on the street to get you in the right place. This is our first time leaving the hotel on the first night. <br />
<br />
We'll have badge pick up available for the duration of the reception right outside the entrance, if you miss picking it up at the hotel until 6:00 pm.<br />
<br />
===Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday Nights===<br />
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings will be of your own to structure as you wish. Given how much you all seemed to like a more flexible dining experience, these three evenings will be of your own to structure as you wish.<br />
<br />
Here is how this will work:<br />
<br />
For each of these three evenings, once your meetings have concluded, you and your team, friends, new acquaintances, are free to explore San Francisco and to find somewhere great to eat that suits you. Each of you can expense a total of $180 over the three days (or $60/night).<br />
<br />
This amount includes:<br />
* Meal cost, including tax & gratuity<br />
* Any beverages<br />
* Transportation to/from the restaurant<br />
* Conversion fees (for credit cards) or cash withdrawal fees<br />
<br />
Anything over the $180 for the three evenings will be your own expense. The fine print:<br />
* If your team is hosting an evening event 1 of the 3 nights and the payment is coordinated (meaning, you don’t have to open your wallet and pay), you can expense up to $120 for the other 2 nights ($60 for each of the 2 nights you did have to open your wallet and pay).<br />
* You will be asked (later) to submit a San Francisco only expense report. You can submit ONE report for San Francisco only and must be submitted no later than August 31, 2018.<br />
* If your manager approves expenses above the $60 per night, that expense will go directly to your travel budget in your cost center.<br />
<br />
Volunteer Contributors & Interns will have a separate process that will be communicated directly.<br />
<br />
===Friday Night===<br />
We will provide dinner at the Closing Party from 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm at The Exploratorium.<br />
<br />
*Shuttles - 6:45 pm - 11:05 pm, Marriott & Exploratorium<br />
*Dinner - 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm, East, West & Central Galleries<br />
*Dessert & some snacks - 7:00 pm - 10:30pm, East, West & Central Galleries<br />
*Drinks - 7:00 pm - 10:45 pm, All galleries<br />
*Exhibits & Tactile Dome - 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm, All galleries<br />

=='''Safety & Security'''==<br />
<br />
=====Personal Security=====<br />
While in the Mozilla meeting spaces and meal spaces, a name badge is required. <br />
<br />
When you leave the hotel, you should remove your badge. Pickpocketers have been known to target people wear conference badges in the neighborhood we are in.<br />
<br />
=====Alcohol at Events=====<br />
To better support and sustain an environment (and workplace culture) where people feel safe and included, we plan make a set of changes regarding alcohol at our events. In all cases, our approach will align with our [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/governance/policies/participation/ Community Participation Guidelines] (“CPG”).<br />
*All participants were/are '''required to read and acknowledge our new Community Participation Guidelines as a condition of participation'''.<br />
*We will '''limit bar-servings to beer and wine''' and ensure an equal number and quality (i.e. not just Coke) of non-alcoholic drink options are available and displayed.<br />
*When teams undertake smaller, “off campus” adventures (team dinners or events), leaders will be asked (and reminded) to be '''thoughtful about the potential exclusionary nature of alcohol when planning'''.<br />
*Clearly outlined, communicated (to event teams, HR and managers) and understood '''escalation process''' for behavior that might be deemed counter to the spirit of our CPG.<br />
<br />
=====Meeting Security=====<br />
You'll need to have your badge on at all times in the hotel, as will your partners, vendors and family members anytime they are in the spaces.<br />
<br />
=====Device Security=====<br />
If you are traveling to the San Francisco All Hands with a device that has Mozilla data (laptop, personal cell phone/tablet with @mozilla gmail, etc) on it and your device has been retained for further inspection by border agents, or if your device has been inspected outside your immediate presence - and you believe your credentials have been compromised - you must notify the Enterprise Information Security team as soon as possible at infosec@mozilla.com or by calling Mozilla End User Services at +1 650-963-8811. (This number will be staffed 24x7)<br />
<br />
We will work with you to reset your credentials and help you get your device back to a known good state either by getting you a new one (if it’s been taken), or by resetting it back to a verifiable Mozilla-approved installation.<br />
<br />
=====Safety Tips=====<br />
SF Travel team also has some [http://www.sftravel.com/safety-tips-convention-attendees tips about safety] in the city, including safety numbers and local hospitals.<br />
<br />
=='''Hotel'''==<br />
Hotel rooms are reserved for all employees & volunteers to stay all week, including employees based in San Francisco (just as if we were somewhere you don't live). We are hopeful Mozilla-locals will stay with the rest of us in the hotel - it's really part of what makes these events great. You will have the option to opt out of hotel in registration if you are local to the Bay Area and wish to commute. <br />
<br />
====Conservation Efforts====<br />
*Marriott offers "Make a Green Choice" program and you can be rewarded 500 Marriott Rewards points or $5 Food and Beverage voucher for every night that you choose not to have your room cleaned. Should you wish to sign up for this Green Initiative, you may do so when you check in. <br />
*In an effort to become a Zero waste hotel by 2020, The Marriott does not offer any bottled water inside the guest rooms or meeting rooms. Flowater stations offering electrolyte infused and alkaline water are available in the Lobby and 2nd Floor (near the elevators) + water stations are available in each of the meeting rooms. <br />
<br />
====Hotel Confirmations====<br />
The Marriott has processed reservations for staff, contractors and interns. Confirmation emails were sent from: Marriott Hotels & Resorts Reservations <reservations@marriott-res.com>. <br />
<br />
If you do not receive a hotel confirmation email by May 18th, please email mozilla@shworldwide.com (after checking your spam collector). If you registered after April 27, your confirmation may arrive later. <br />
<br />
''Reservations for volunteers are still pending and confirmation emails have not been sent.''<br />
<br />
A few things to note:<br />
*If you have any changes or questions about your reservation, email mozilla@shworldwide.com. The hotel cannot make changes to All Hands reservations (other than to add your guests - see #3) so we’d like very much if you didn’t try (it complicates things).<br />
*If you have guests joining you for all or part of the week, you will be responsible for adding them to your reservation (and covering any additional fees). <br />
*Volunteers, summer interns and outreachy interns will be sharing rooms.<br />
<br />
====Payment on Check-in====<br />
Everyone will be required to present a form of payment on check-in for incidentals at $50 per day. This is a US hotel standard and we aren't able to waive it (we tried).<br />
<br />
We recommend providing a credit card. You can provide a debit card, but they do put a hold of funds on your card and has been problematic for some international travelers in the past. If you are not able to provide a credit or debit card, email mozilla@shworldwide.com and we'll work with the hotel on accommodating. <br />
<br />
====Pre/post====<br />
Links were provided when you are invited to register in April to book hotel 3 days pre and 3 days post at our negotiated rate. The pre/post reservations require the use of an LDAP email so we can link them to your All Hands reservation. Rooms booked by any method except this link will not be linked to your main reservation. Reservations via those links are no longer available, as of May 18, 2018.<br />
<br />
====Parking====<br />
Self-Parking is available at several lots nearby. [ http://www.fifthandmission.com/map.htm 5th & Mission Garage] is the closest option, reccomended by the hotel. It is $34/night. The Marriott Marquis offers valet only for $80/night - please do not park valet. <br />
<br />
Mozilla will not reimburse for parking, plan to commute the way you normally would in the city. If you have questions about parking, email bmark@mozilla.com.<br />
<br />
=='''Travel'''==<br />
====Arriving into San Francisco====<br />
'''Travel Delays, Cancellations, etc.'''<br />
<br />
If your flight is delayed or cancelled, work with the airline in the airport to get re-booked. If you’re cancellation or delay will impact your arrive time by >6 hours, you must email mozilla@shworldwide.com so we can adjust your hotel reservation. If you don’t do this, the hotel will cancel it.<br />
<br />
'''Device Security'''<br />
<br />
In the unlikely event you are asked to surrender a device to border agents (anything with Mozilla data on it), notify the Enterprise Information Security team as soon as possible at infosec@mozilla.com or by calling Mozilla End User Services at +1 650-963-8811. (This number will be staffed 24x7)<br />
<br />
====Arriving Early/Departing Late Guidelines====<br />
<br />
Our standard travel guidelines apply (pre-populated in Egencia) when booking with a few additional budget constraints. Anything booked outside of them will require approval. Most people will arrive on Monday, June 11 and leave on Saturday, June 16. Here are some exceptions: <br />
* If you live in a country where work travel is prohibited on weekends, you may travel on Friday, June 8 and Monday, June 18, if you’d prefer (not required). For hotel, you will book and pay on your own, and expense the manager approved amount (which is coded to your cost center).<br />
* If you plan to spend some extra personal time in San Francisco (choosing to arrive before Monday, June 11 or depart after Saturday, June 16), you'll need to create an itinerary in Egencia for standard dates/locations within the San Francisco June 2018 Portal and compare to the custom dates you'd like. Please share the difference via email to bmark@mozilla.com before submitting the flight. You can sway up to +$100 over and Mozilla will cover it. Otherwise you'll need to come with an alternate itinerary that fits within the pricing (like a round trip in and out of SFO w/ longer dates, and you personally book & cover the rest). We do not have the ability for employees to reimburse Mozilla for any overage.<br />
* If you are attending the Monday Core Influencer's event (by invite).<br />
* If you would like to arrive early to recover from jetlag, you will need manager approval for any additional costs associated with the extension. There is no unilateral "All Hands" approval based upon timezone to arrive early. For hotel, you will book and pay on your own, and expense the manager approved amount (which is coded to your cost center).<br />
<br />
====Booking Family Travel====<br />
Once travel has opened to staff, you may book family, whether they will accompany you on your flight or join us later; and you have two options: Direct or through Egencia. <br />
<br />
If you choose to book family through Egencia, please first book your own flight and then call Egencia with your airline confirmation number (staff do have to go through Egencia). Otherwise, you can book family direct (either through the airline or through another third party) and call the ticketing airline(s) with both confirmation numbers and ask them to link your reservations, so they know you are traveling together. They should also be able to assign seats together. You will avoid the limited hours Egencia offers and avoid paying their ticketing fee. <br />
<br />
If you prefer to book your family through Egencia, you can pay (including the Egencia booking fees) and coordinate with your own travel (recommend to book and then call/email Egencia with your itinerary number to match for family). Note that booking through Egencia does not put you on the same reservation, nor guarantee the reservations will be linked (you would still need to call the airline to link them). <br />
<br />
''Volunteers, summer interns and outreachy interns will be sharing rooms and are unable to invite family to join them.'' <br />
<br />
* '''Call:''' +1 (877) 264-1622 or +1 (417) 521-0273; Monday - Friday 9 am - 6 pm EST. If you call outside these hours, you will get an after hours agent, who may not be as helpful.<br />
<br />
====Travel Insurance====<br />
Mozilla provides emergency medical accident and illness cover for all global MoCo employees/interns and their dependents. You can view more information on [https://mana.mozilla.org/wiki/display/PR/Travel+insurance%3A+Business Mana]. This coverage begins at the time the you leave home to start your business trip. It also has a provision for a 14 day extension for leisure travel outside of the business travel. If you have additional questions, please email benefits@mozilla.com. <br />
<br />
Mozilla does not cover travel insurance for elancers, upworkers, contractors, vendors, or volunteers/community members.<br />
<br />
=====''Air Travel Fine Print''=====<br />
*Change fees will be covered by Mozilla for '''business reasons only'''. If you need a change and have manager approval, email bmark@mozilla.com prior to requesting the change with Egencia. Once you have approval, call Egencia to make the change at +1 (702) 939-2530 or +1-877-264-1622 (note this will not be possible without prior approval so be sure to get that by way of an email from your manager to Brianna Mark). If you are changing for personal reasons, the change in airfare, change fee and Egencia fee is your responsibility.<br />
<br />
*Mozilla will not reimburse for Business/First class upgrades or tickets. <br />
<br />
*Any submitted expenses needs to have an itinerary attached to ensure it is employee expenses only and within policy.<br />
<br />
=='''Airport Shuttle'''==<br />

<BLOCKQUOTE><p>Intelligence agencies in the U.S. (aka the American Spies) are exceedingly aggressive, pushing and sometimes bursting through the technological, legal and political boundaries of lawful surveillance.</p> <br />
<br />
<p>Because surveillance law has fallen behind surveillance technology, the U.S. government has unprecedented new powers. At our April Speaker Series, [http://cyberlaw.stanford.edu/about/people/jennifer-granick Jennifer Granick] will address how Cold War programs led by J. Edgar Hoover and initiatives sparked by the September 11, 2001 tragedy have led us to today’s fusion centers and mosque infiltrators. She will also show how our current state of mass surveillance is fundamentally incompatible with a healthy democracy.</p></BLOCKQUOTE><br />

Last month Mozilla acquired Read It Later, the San Francisco-based maker of the Pocket app for the desktop, iOS and Android. Pocket users have saved more than 3 billion pieces of content to date. In today’s chat we’ll learn more about why we made this acquisition, and we’ll meet some members of the Pocket team who will take us on a product tour.<br />
<br />
You can submit questions in advance on the [https://moderator.mozilla.org/e/introduction-to-pocket-fireside-chat-mon-4-24-17 Moderator page] or ask them live on Air Mozilla using a Mozilla Space mic or in #airmozilla on IRC.<br />

For more information about their contributions, check out the [[Add-ons/Contribute/Recognition|wiki]].<br />

* Big thanks to abbeyj, long-time contributor to [[DXR]], who recently updated us to be clang-3.9-compatible. Then, for an encore, he fixed a whole bunch of old bugs and improved token boundaries so we can get context menus on template params in more cases.<br />

<div>== Project Call Project (2016) ==<br />
=== Background ===<br />
The Project Call began when it was attended by a handful of paid staff and contributors who sat around an actual table providing technical updates, discussing blockers and sharing ideas. <br />
<br />
Originally, the Project Call was a private weekly gathering of a group called "Mozilla Staff," comprising Netscape employees dedicated to the Mozilla project, plus a couple of non-Netscape contributors working on Mozilla-related projects at other organizations. It began the early months of 1998.<br />
<br />
Staff's membership ran the gamut from project leads like Brendan and Mitchell to individual contributors like Myk Melez and Asa Dotzler. During the meetings, the group discussed a variety of issues, especially questions of governance. We were also chartered to resolve disputes within the community. More info on Staff is available at http://www-archive.mozilla.org/about/staff.<br />
<br />
After the Mozilla Foundation was founded, the meeting gradually turned into a weekly meeting of MoFo employees, and Staff became moribund (although it continues to exist in vestigial form via the staff@mozilla.org alias, which occasionally receives and redirects some complaint about Mozilla). MoFo then turned into MoFo/MoCo, and at some point we decided to make the meetings public, expanding the intended audience to all Mozillians.<br />
<br />
Today, a decade after it began, the meeting is attended by, on average, 200-300 people each week with ⅔ of that viewing live in Mountain View or other Mozilla offices with some picking it up later. We have no sense of who, staff / volunteers / other, are watching the meetings, other than those we see live in offices or ⅓ of the total. The format of the meeting and agenda have changed only incrementally over the course of its long history and there is some sense, from potch and others, that engagement, as well as actual participation in the meeting, is receding.<br />
<br />
=== Project Overview ===<br />
Part of the internal communications team’s reason-for-being is to build and sustain an internal communications system that enables information and inspiration to get where it needs to get when it needs to get there. To do that, we’re spinning up this project, aimed at re-imagining The Project Call so that it offers real engagement value for its intended audience. We don't know where our research will lead us right now, be we believe there is an opportunity hiding out here somewhere, so we're going to see. <br />
<br />
=== Approach/Strategy ===<br />
Given what we suspect this meeting represents to a subset of the organization (hallmark of our “openness”, communications platform cherished by the old guard, legacy identity with a deep tie to the past), we will approach any sort of change with delicacy and candor. This may mean execution moves more slowly that we’d like, but we will err on the side of “treading lightly” over up-ending an iconic fixture.<br />
<br />
We will also look to support all of our recommendations with data, where possible, and to test small changes over time vs. broad sweeping reform (this approach may change depending upon what the research says). The bulk of the project will be research, likely 80% primary and 20% secondary (best practices in other organizations). This focus on research has the added benefit of allowing any sort of change effort to feel more inclusive.<br />
<br />
=== Goal / Success Metric ===<br />
By EOY 2016, we will have tested a number (exact number TBD) of meaningful changes to the current meeting format and/or content that result in greater immediate audience satisfaction (as measured by a 10% increase in attendance). Longer-term, this project aims to re-imagine The Project Call so that it offers real engagement value for its intended audience, connected to, as well as reinforcing of, a greater communications system internally (longer term measures will be embedded within overall engagement scores). <br />

=== Rough Timeline ===<br />
<br />
'''August - September''' (research, listen/discover). Here is where we discover the answers to questions like: Who is the primary or intended audience for this meeting? What is the value of this meeting currently to that group? What changes do you think need to happen in order for the audience to get maximum value out of the meeting? Would you miss it if it was gone? What problem is the meeting solving?<br />
<br />
* Identify key stakeholders + form task team, conduct 2-5 focus group + stakeholder interviews, launch user survey within the meeting (targeted at current audience), survey volunteers + a sample of paid staff.<br />
* Investigate what “other companies” do. Those who run status meetings on a regular basis + those who don’t (or do them in a different way or not at all).<br />

The limit is '''3 minutes per topic'''. It's like a lightning talk, but don't feel that you have to have slides in order to make a presentation. If you plan on showing a video, you need to contact the Air Mozilla team before the day of the meeting or you will be deferred to the next week. The meeting is streamed in a 4:3 format in order to allow for split screen. If your slides are 16:9 "widescreen" format, please indicate in the "Sharing" column below.<br />

<div><br />
'''What is it?''' -- Multiple work weeks, happening in the same city, at the same time + some opportunity to get together as one big group as well as with other teams as it makes sense. Then, on the last day, we have a fun social event for all, Mozilla-style! <br />
<br />
=='''Dates, Location and Weather'''==<br />
Monday, December 7 - Friday, December 11, 2015 (travel days are Monday & Saturday*) in [https://www.google.com/maps/place/WALT+DISNEY+WORLD+SWAN+%26+DOLPHIN+RESORTS/@28.3684851,-81.5606938,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x88dd7e536aa54b81:0x3200e47f9cfd0913 Orlando, Florida, USA] at The Swan & Dolphin Resort. <br />
<br />
''*For those countries where rest time is required on weekends (vs. work travel), Mozilla will cover a return on the next available work day, if you choose. This needs to pre-approved and pre-arranged.''<br />
<br />
===Weather=== <br />
Averages temperatures range from lows of 54 Fahrenheit (12 Celsius) to 74 Fahrenheit (23 Celsius). Layers recommended for evenings.<br />
<br />
[http://www.weather.com/weather/monthly/l/USFL0372:1:US Forecast]<br />
<br />
=='''Registration'''==<br />
This is an invite only event.<br />
<br />
=='''Booking Air Travel via Egencia'''==<br />
All paid staff and Elancers (MoCo only [1], exceptions below [2]) will be booking their air travel to Orlando (MCO) through Egencia. <br />
'''Please wait for the announcement and do not book outside of the Orlando Portal''', as it ensures we can meaningfully balance 1,200 of us to booking our own flights with a need to be mindful of budget. <br />
<br />
'''Orlando Egencia'''<br />
*Once launched, you will sign in using Single Sign-On aka “SSO” with your LDAP (don’t “create an account for Orlando Work Week”). <br />
*If you do not have an LDAP, you will need to submit a Service Now Ticket. Questions: email bmark@mozilla.com <br />
<br />
[1] Mozilla Foundation employees - Phia Sanchez is your coordinator.<br />
<br />
[2] Employees from our Tokyo office will use a local agency and Yuka Takagi is your coordinator. <br />
<br />
[2] Employees from our Taipei office will use Swire, your local agency and Bella Su is your coordinator. <br />
<br />
=====Not paid staff?=====<br />
If you are a vendor (paid by a company other than Mozilla or Elance), contractor, or seasonal staff, your manager must confirm your participation before you will be able to book travel. We reached out to managers already for this confirmation and will alert you know when you may book your travel. If you have a direct report who qualifies but did not receive an email, please reach out to bmark@.<br />
<br />
Volunteers -- Participation will be coordinated by Brian King, Francisco Picolini and George Roter. Communication about the process for nominating is coming by end of August. Please reach out to the team with any specific questions. <br />
<br />
Partners -- Invitations will be considered on a case by case basis. Please send those requests to mdouglass@mozilla.com for review.<br />
<br />
=====New Hires=====<br />
We have a process to identify new hires each week and will invite them to book travel (and register, once that’s live) on a steady basis. No action necessary from managers other than to let them know about the event.<br />
<br />
=====Air Travel Guidelines=====<br />
Our standard travel guidelines apply (pre-populated in Egencia and [https://mana.mozilla.org/wiki/display/WPR/Travel+and+Egencia here] for reference) when booking with a few additional budget constraints. Anything booked outside of them will require approval. <br />
<br />
Most people will arrive on Monday, December 7th and leave on Saturday, December 12th. Here are some exceptions: <br />
*Anyone who must endure more than an eight-hour time change traveling to Orlando may arrive on Sunday (this is time zone change, not travel time). If this is you, please let bmark@mozilla.com know so she can approve in Egencia.<br />
*If you live in a country where work travel is prohibited on weekends, you may travel on Friday, December 4th and Monday, December 14th, if you’d prefer (not required).<br />
*If you plan to spend some extra time in Orlando, choosing to arrive before Monday, December 7th or depart after Saturday, December 12th, you are responsible for any additional costs for this +/- $100 USD. Please send copies of the standard itinerary and the custom itinerary to Brianna Mark for approval.<br />
*If you are attending the Monday Director's event.<br />
<br />
=====Booking travel if you have family joining you=====<br />
To book travel for family, whether they will accompany you on your flight or join us later, please call Egencia directly. You can pay for your family directly (including the Egencia booking fees) and coordinate with your own travel (which can be billed to Mozilla). You will not be able to book families online.<br />
<br />
=====''Air Travel Fine Print''=====<br />
Change fees will be covered by Mozilla for business reasons only. If you need a change and have manager approval, email bmark@mozilla.com prior to requesting the change with Egencia. Once you have approval, call Egencia to make the change at +1 (877) 264-1622 (note this will not be possible without prior approval so be sure to get that by way of an email from your manager to Brianna Mark). If you are changing for personal reasons, the change in airfare, change fee and Egencia fee is your responsibility.<br />
<br />
=='''Booking "Extra Nights" at The Swan & Dolphin'''==<br />
If you plan to arrive on December 7th and depart on December 12th (i.e. you’re not planning to spend any extra time in Orlando), you do not need to book your hotel room now -- we’ll take care of it for you, paying and booking -- as part of registration.<br />
<br />
If you’re planning a lovely, pre/post work week vacation in Disney and would like to reserve extra nights at the Swan & Dolphin at our reduced, event rate -- $159 per night plus $20 resort fee and taxes* -- you may do that from [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1EAtLe2NiGTuVf1BvKfLWl5hzgdPPjRf_nvV1S8TJ42Y/edit#heading=h.hk0425zd1hwu here]. We suggest making the reservation for your entire stay so you only have one reservation. The hosted nights will be moved to separate billing. <br />
<br />
The rate is available December 4 - 15. The hotel is fully booked prior to December 4 (as of 8/7/15). If you wish to depart later, the rate will be the regular hotel rate. Please email bmark@ for instructions on how to do that. There is currently enough space for each employee to have one (1) guestroom each.<br />
<br />
* *There is an additional per-person fee per night of $25 (>one). Also, the $159 rate goes up after November 13th so book soon if you’re serious about this.<br />
* *The first night's deposit + resort service package + tax will be charged to your credit card upon confirmation of your reservation. <br />
* *Should you need to cancel this reservation, your individual deposit and the resort service package is refundable if notice is received at least five (5) days prior to arrival and a cancellation number is obtained. Cancellations may be made by calling the hotel directly at 800-227-1500 or 407-934-4000 ext 2300 or by email at grouprez@swandolphin.com.<br />
* *All guestrooms have a small, empty mini fridge. Cribs are complimentary, but subject to availability. <br />
<br />
=====''Hotel Fine Print''=====<br />
Mozilla will cover the standard hotel rate of $159, resort fee and taxes for arrival on Monday, December 7th - departure on Saturday, December 12th. If you choose to arrive early, depart late, upgrade your room type and/or have anyone join you, you will be responsible for the additional fees.<br />
<br />
Anyone who must endure more than an eight-hour time change traveling to Orlando may arrive on Sunday and we will cover and book hotel Sunday night through registration (i.e. you do not need to do anything). If you want to arrive earlier than Sunday, you'll want to make arrangements ahead of time on your own.<br />
<br />
=='''Ground Transportation in Orlando'''==<br />
=====Nothing Special about your Trip?=====<br />
If you plan to arrive on Monday, December 7th (MCO) and depart on Saturday, December 12th from the hotel to MCO, and have no guests joining you, no action necessary (transportation will be arranged for you). <br />
<br />
=====Bringing family?=====<br />
If you are bringing family and are all arriving on Monday, December 7th and departing Saturday, December 12th, you may all use our company-arranged transportation provided you request it ahead of time (for your guests). You will do this during registration - no action now - which will happen closer in September. <br />
<br />
=====Arriving early and/or leaving late (w/ or w/out family)?=====<br />
If you arrive earlier than December 7th or depart later than December 12th, with or without guests, you will have to cover and arrange your own ground transportation, to and from MCO, including rental cars and parking. Some help is here: <br />

<br />
=='''A few words about family...'''==<br />
Disney World is certainly a great spot for families so we’d love it if, for those who can make it, you’d invite them along. We’ve tried to make it easy to coordinate air travel and hotel stays for them and many of our social events will be open as well. We also plan to offer discounted family park passes shortly (please do not purchase yet!).<br />
<br />
Of course our focus, for the majority of the week, will be on Mozilla. Everyone is expected to be present and engaged each day, during work hours (as your schedule dictates). Please do what you can to make sure your loved ones understand the kind of commitment you’ve made. Family should not join you during your work sessions (other than the more tiny beings). <br />
<br />
'''Here’s a quick summary logistics summary if you’re planning to bring family along:'''<br />
<br />
'''Air Travel:''' Family travel can be booked/coordinated through Egencia by calling direct.<br />
<br />
'''Hotel:''' You can book nights, pre/post event, at a discounted rate, [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1EAtLe2NiGTuVf1BvKfLWl5hzgdPPjRf_nvV1S8TJ42Y/edit#heading=h.hk0425zd1hwu here]. Any additional room expenses (listed above) will be yours to cover.<br />
<br />
'''Ground transportation to/from airport:''' If arriving on main arrival and departure days, we will accommodate family transportation to the Swan & Dolphin. Transportation outside of main arrival/departure days are you own expense, with or without family.<br />
<br />
=='''Meeting Space & Internet'''==<br />
Internet in your guestroom is provided by the hotel and the standard hotel network. It is free, use it. Do not connect to the meeting network while in your room.<br />
<br />
Internet in the meeting spaces: YES, we'll have it. Check back for log in information.<br />
<br />
=='''Food & Drink'''==<br />
All meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) will be provided and paid for centrally. Any other food or drink expenses (including room service and in-room minibar charges) will be the responsibility of the attendee. <br />
<br />
*Allergies: We will ensure that all food/environmental allergies are taken into consideration and will always have gluten-free and vegan options (and gfv options). If you have severe allergies that we need to know about; you can indicate in registration.<br />
*For dining in the theme parks, please refer [https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/guest-services/special-dietary-requests/ here] for dietary accommodations.<br />
<br />
=='''Out of Pocket Expenses'''==<br />
The intention of our work weeks are to centrally organize a structure within which teams can come together to work on deliverables and plans, to socialize, to meet and share with other teams, and generally come together as one Mozilla family, two times each year. The central organization includes meals (three/day + snacks), transportation, accommodations, and some number of social events. <br />
<br />
Because of that, we’d expect a very limited number, if any, of work week-related expenses for food or social events (this includes team events, room service, mini-bar charges, and food/drink costs above the vouched amounts). Any social events that are not part of our central plan will generally be self-organized and funded by participants. This is a modified policy from Portland. For specifics on meals, please go to the Food & Drink section (above). If you have questions about any of this, please reach out to bmark@mozilla.com<br />
<br />
===Volunteer Reimbursement via Reps===<br />
Volunteers attending this event may submit for visa and U.S. travel/health insurance- related costs (and other incidentals) via Mozilla Reps: <br />
<br />
Mozilla Reps attending this event may submit for reimbursement through the standard process.<br />
Mozillians who are not Mozilla Reps should contact a local Rep and the Rep will help them get reimbursed. The process is as follows:<br />
:Step 1: contact a Rep [https://reps.mozilla.org/people/ in your country]*<br />
:Step 2: once the Rep has accepted to process your reimbursement, give them an estimate of what your costs will be. If you need the funds beforehand, be sure to say that<br />
:Step 3: after the event, send him/her all your scanned receipts and bank details/paypal account<br />
:Step 4: inform the Rep once you have successfully received the funds<br />
<br />
=='''FAQ'''==<br />
Anything not covered here, please add to [https://docs.google.com/a/mozilla.com/document/d/1BMxwo9rVXJCeImEsOKypFr05Qp8b0ZUVY1GR9uEDht4/edit?usp=sharing this] and we'll answer.<br />
<br />
=='''Extra Curriculars'''==<br />
If you have one to propose, add it here with a sign up link. Note that these things are self-organized and self-funded.</div>Mdouglasshttps://wiki.mozilla.org/index.php?title=Firefox%27s_Birthday&diff=1091146Firefox's Birthday2015-08-21T00:43:56Z<p>Mdouglass: </p>
<hr />
<div>Each Fall, we celebrate the “birth” of Firefox. It is important to not only celebrate and honor the longevity of the product and the organization, but to spend some social time, outside of work, with all of our awesome colleagues and maybe meet their families (adults and kids alike). Fall parties typically start later in the day and carry on into the evening and are loosely coupled with our fall campaign. <br />
<br />
There events are invite only and are coordinated by local WPR teams, office staff or by employees themselves.<br />

<hr />
<div>'''Coincidental Work Weeks''' are individual team [[Work Week]]s all happening at the same time in the same location. These events stand as a unique and special opportunity for all paid staff and our most impactful volunteers to come together, in person, to share experiences and interact with people they may not normally work with (or just see over Vidyo). Given our size, work weeks are a key differentiator for us (larger organizations just can't do this sort of thing in a meaningful way). Being able to come together as a whole organization, 2x each year, exposes each of us to interactions that may spark new ideas and/or lead to new solutions. They are a core part of our annual planning process.<br />
<br />
==Overall Event Design Principles==<br />
* Authentic with degree of informality, strong sense of place<br />
* High production value but not produced -- like TED, not like Microsoft or Oracle<br />
* Not corporate or stuffy - natural materials, subtle/smart branding and theming<br />
* Made by humans for humans<br />
* Organic, comfortable, friendly, inclusive with lots of diverse opportunities (spaces, events) to engage with each other. Reflective of our interest in a distributed internet and the distributed/diverse nature of Mozilla<br />
* EOY's are a bit more of a party and celebration where mid-year events are meant to be a check-in point and will reflect a lower-key design.<br />
<br />
== Locations ==<br />
Work week locations are selected with input from a small group of Mozillians based on a variety of factors the most significant of which is meeting space availability (need require more than a normal "conference") and number of rooms in close proximity to each other (so we are not spread out and thus limit the amount of serendipitous collision that is part of the work week magic).<br />

<br />
=='''Booking Travel (opens March 31st)'''==<br />
All paid staff and Elancers (MoCo only [1], exceptions below [2]) may begin booking their air travel to Vancouver (YVR) through a special [https://www.egencia.com/pub/agent.dll?qscr=mtgd&mgid=66121&gpid=4942E5086162 “meeting” section of Egencia]. The meeting section ensures we can meaningfully balance 1,000 of us to booking our own flights with a need to be mindful of budget. As such, we ask that you only book Whistler travel within this framework (instructions [https://docs.google.com/a/mozilla.com/presentation/d/1vchB3eDbLPPfW1SKUksIE575qwyGw3LrSj0M0zscaug/present#slide=id.p here]). <br />

===Air Travel Guidelines (and tips)===<br />
Our standard travel guidelines apply (pre-populated in Egencia and [https://mana.mozilla.org/wiki/display/WPR/Travel+and+Egencia here] for reference) when booking for Whistler. Anything booked outside of them will require approval. <br />
<br />
Everyone should plan to arrive in Vancouver, BC (YVR) on Monday, June 22. Exceptions are possible for those traveling on long distance flights that require an earlier arrival.<br />
<br />
Everyone should plan to depart from Vancouver, BC (YVR) on Saturday, June 27. '''NOTE: You will need to leave Whistler at least five hours prior to your flight. Please consider this when booking your departure.''' <br />
<br />
If you are traveling from afar, we recommend avoiding a layover in the United States and aiming for one in Canada. This minimizes the number of visas you will need.<br />
<br />
===Early Arrivals/Late Departures===<br />
Provided there is no incremental cost (>$100USD) to your airfare for an earlier arrival or later departure, you are totally welcome to have at it. While we have negotiated rates with some Whistler hotels for the three days prior to and the three days following our work week, they are subject to availability (NOTE: There are two big deal events going on just prior to our work week in Vancouver and Whistler, so it’s going to be tough to get a room no matter what). <br />
<br />
===Ground Transportation to/from YVR===<br />
Ground transfers via bus from Vancouver Int’l Airport to Whistler will be provided on Monday, June 22nd and from Whistler to Vancouver Int’l Airport on Saturday, June 27th only.<br />

<br />
Everyone (including volunteers) will have individual rooms (unless you want to share). Interns will be sharing rooms. <br />

<div>'''What is it?''' -- multiple work weeks, happening in the same city, at the same time + some opportunity to get together as one big group as well as with other teams as it makes sense. Then, on the last day, we have a fun social event for all, Mozilla-style! <br />
<br />
=='''Dates, Location and Weather'''==<br />
Monday, June 22 - Friday, June 26, 2015 (travel days are Monday & Saturday*) in Whistler, British Columbia, CANADA (various venues, all within [https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=zGDglM1VcNwI.kO8bbJ9I88W0 Whistler Village]) <br />
<br />
''*For those countries where rest time is required on weekends (vs. work travel), Mozilla will cover a return on the next available work day, if you choose.''<br />
<br />
===Weather=== <br />
Averages temperatures range from lows of 48 Fahrenheit (9 Celsius) to 70 Fahrenheit (21 Celsius). It can/will rain and will be cool (could even snow of Friday night since the party’s at ~6,000 feet/1,850 metres). Bring layers but a ski jacket isn’t necessary.<br />
<br />
=='''Booking Travel (opens March 31st)'''==<br />
All paid staff and Elancers (MoCo only [1], exceptions below [2]) may begin booking their air travel to Vancouver (YVR) through a special [https://www.egencia.com/pub/agent.dll?qscr=mtgd&mgid=66121&gpid=4942E5086162 “meeting” section of Egencia]. The meeting section ensures we can meaningfully balance 1,000 of us to booking our own flights with a need to be mindful of budget. As such, we ask that you only book Whistler travel within this framework (instructions [https://docs.google.com/a/mozilla.com/presentation/d/1vchB3eDbLPPfW1SKUksIE575qwyGw3LrSj0M0zscaug/present#slide=id.p here]). <br />
<br />
[1] Mozilla Foundation employees - more information on booking travel coming soon.<br />
[2] Employees from our Taipei office will use Swire as your travel agency and Bella Su is your coordinator.<br />
[2] Employees from our Japan office will use a local agency and Yuka Takagi is your coordinator. <br />
<br />
<br />
===Air Travel Guidelines (and tips)===<br />
Our standard travel guidelines apply (pre-populated in Egencia and [https://mana.mozilla.org/wiki/display/WPR/Travel+and+Egencia here] for reference) when booking for Whistler. Anything booked outside of them will require approval. <br />
<br />
Everyone should plan to arrive in Vancouver, BC (YVR) on Monday, June 22. Exceptions are possible for those traveling on long distance flights that require an earlier arrival.<br />
<br />
Everyone should plan to depart from Vancouver, BC (YVR) on Saturday, June 27. '''NOTE: You will need to leave Whistler at least five hours prior to your flight. Please consider this when booking your departure.''' <br />
<br />
If you are traveling from afar, we recommend avoiding a layover in the United States and aiming for one in Canada. This minimizes the number of visas you will need.<br />
<br />
===Early Arrivals/Late Departures===<br />
Provided there is no incremental cost (>$100USD) to your airfare for an earlier arrival or later departure, you are totally welcome to have at it. While we have negotiated rates with some Whistler hotels for the three days prior to and the three days following our work week, they are subject to availability (NOTE: There are two big deal events going on just prior to our work week in Vancouver and Whistler, so it’s going to be tough to get a room no matter what). <br />
<br />
===Ground Transportation to/from YVR===<br />
Ground transfers via bus from Vancouver Int’l Airport to Whistler will be provided on Monday, June 22nd and from Whistler to Vancouver Int’l Airport on Saturday, June 27th only.<br />
<br />

===New Hires=== <br />
We have a process to identify new hires each week and will invite them to book travel (and register, once that’s live) on a steady basis. No action necessary from managers other than to let them know about the event.<br />
<br />
=='''Hotels & Meeting Space'''==<br />
We’ll try to get teams in hotels together where possible. The hotels are all close together (closer than in Portland), so even if it the numbers aren’t perfect, it should all work pretty well. We’ll kick of registration in late April and assign rooms in May.<br />
<br />
Everyone (including volunteers) will have individual rooms (unless you want to share). Interns will be sharing rooms. <br />
<br />
There is complimentary wifi in the hotel rooms and lobby spaces so everyone can work in the evenings or prepare stuff for the next day.<br />

<div>'''What is it?''' -- multiple work weeks, happening in the same city, at the same time + some opportunity to get together as one big group as well as with other teams as it makes sense. Then, on the last day, we have a fun social event for all, Mozilla-style! <br />
<br />
=='''Dates and Location'''==<br />
Monday, June 22 - Friday, June 26, 2015 (travel days are Monday & Saturday*) in Whistler, British Columbia, CANADA (various venues, all within [https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=zGDglM1VcNwI.kO8bbJ9I88W0 Whistler Village]) <br />

<br />
=='''Booking Travel'''==<br />

<div>==Program Summary==<br />
[[File:TRIBE Sticker.png|125px|baseline|left]] <br />
<br />
''Managers work to get their employees to do what they did yesterday, but a little faster and a little cheaper. Leaders, on the other hand, know where they'd like to go, but understand that they can't get there without their tribe, without giving those they lead the tools to make something happen.<br />
<br />
''Managers want authority. Leaders take responsibility.<br />
<br />
''We need both. But we have to be careful not to confuse them. And it helps to remember that leaders are scarce and thus more valuable''. [[http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2011/10/the-difference-between-management-and-leadership.html 1]]<br />
<br />
<br />
TRIBE is a program designed to inspire our leaders, and those with the potential to lead, to become their best. The curriculum will challenge each participant to explore their own leadership strengths and challenges, as well as learn how to create sustained, positive transformation within Mozilla. Beyond that, the program will help our current and future leaders learn how to nurture an environment of mutual trust and respect, one that creates stronger employee performance and engagement and ultimately results in greater overall impact on our business objectives.<br />
<br />
TRIBE invites participants to play an active role in their own learning. There will be no PowerPoint. These sessions intend to create an environment where people feel safe to step forward and be more vulnerable about their strengths, successes, and challenges. TRIBE is filled with relevant concepts and practical skills so participants walk out of each session equipped to immediately use what they’ve learned.<br />
<br />
All courses are two full days beginning at 9:00am and ending at approximately 4:30pm (local time). Your manager must be aware and supportive of your participation in each session. Registering to participate means you will be given one of a set number of spots within the session and that the entire cohort will expect you to attend. If, after your have been approved, you are unable to attend, we require at least five days notice and the support of your manager in order to withdraw you.<br />
<br />
<p><br />
<br />
==Sessions Overview==<br />
===Leadership Discovery: Know Your Strengths, Build Your Skills* – 2 days===<br />
'''*Prerequisite for all other sessions'''<br />
<br />
This two-day, immersive leadership course starts with you: your strengths as well as the behaviors and habits that get in the way of you being the most effective you can be. It’s based on leading edge research from the Leadership Circle Profile and from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_O._Clifton Dr. Donald O. Clifton], author of Strengths-based Leadership. The course is based on the proven concept that when people understand and apply their strengths and are aware of their reactive tendencies the effect on their lives and work is transformational.<br />
<br />
Together with a small cohort of Mozillians, participants in Leadership Discovery will work together to develop an awareness of their individual strengths and limitations, learn to appreciate failure as a key part of success, and support each other in becoming better leaders.<br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
Participants in Leadership Discovery, can expect to come away with: a new awareness of their own leadership strengths; skills to reduce their reactive tendencies; and practical ways to work better with others, including listening and creating stronger work relationships. Participants will also walk away with a detailed action plan for how to practically apply their new skills in their work, and personal life.<br />
<br />
When people are able to use their strengths every day, their engagement with work increases by 6x. Fully engaged leaders cultivate committed employees who strive to lead as well. The cycle is a beautiful thing.<br />
<br />
===Collaborative Leadership: Working with Others – 2 days===<br />
In most successful organizations, the best leaders create environments where people naturally work together to do remarkable things. In this two-day session, participants will come together to learn how to develop and support a culture of trust; one where people feel valued and listened to. With a cohort of peers, you will learn how to have courageous conversations, cultivate genuine curiosity, recognize other people’s strengths and be even more collaborative.<br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
Upon completion of this course, participants will have learned and practiced a set of skills that enable them to: have “courageous conversations” with anyone - whether as initiator or recipient; recognize and shift their perspective; give positive, affirming feedback; and more effectively collaborate with those they work with. Over time, with application, these small acts of leadership will begin to transform our culture to one where everyone feels like they belong and our collective energy is aimed at the same goals.<br />
<br />
===Leadership Presence: Discovering your Impact – 2 days===<br />
As a follow on to the foundational session Leadership Discovery, Leadership Presence takes the idea that deep self-awareness is a key attribute of the world’s best leaders, a few steps-further. This session reveals and underscores the natural leadership presence of each participant. <br />
<br />
All too often, we work hard to present a side of ourselves at work that we believe the world wants to see rather than expressing other compelling, sometimes more quirky and/or intriguing aspects of ourselves (because we think it makes us look stupid or incompetent, for example). This prolonged suppression of your “real” self can lead to stress and distraction and get in the way of you becoming a truly great leader.<br />
<br />
In this two-day session, participants will learn about an alternative system that encourages them to be “on type” and to contribute to the work environment in a way that is more creative, more spontaneous, and with increased resilience.<br />
<br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
With input from the group, participants will discover their “type” and how much more impactful they are when they communicate with others in their natural state. This process helps participants differentiate between what they do and the impact they have. With practice, this level of deep self-awareness will enable good leaders to become great.<br />
<br />

'''Wednesday, March 11 on Air Mozilla - 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET / 4 PM GMT'''<br />
<br /><br />
Last year, the Creative Team and the IT Team partnered to implement a Digital Asset Management (DAM) System from NetXposure. Come see how YOU can have access to all of the creative assets, like design projects, presentations and logos for any of your creative needs!<br />
<br /><br />
<br />
[http://wiki.mozilla.org/DAM| More DAM Info ]<br />
<br />
Ty Flanagan, one of Mozilla's amazing graphic designers, will tell you a little bit about the DAM system, show you how to pull assets and then take your questions.<br />
<br /><br />
<br />
This presentation originates in Toronto and will be broadcast/recorded on AirMo (https://air.mozilla.org/digital-asset-management-system-demo/). We'll take questions ahead of time on Moderator ([http://moderator.mozilla.org/e/digital-asset-management-dam-system-demo]) and live on IRC in #fistbump (Creative team's room).<br />

<br />
''Managers work to get their employees to do what they did yesterday, but a little faster and a little cheaper. Leaders, on the other hand, know where they'd like to go, but understand that they can't get there without their tribe, without giving those they lead the tools to make something happen.<br />
<br />
''Managers want authority. Leaders take responsibility.<br />
<br />
''We need both. But we have to be careful not to confuse them. And it helps to remember that leaders are scarce and thus more valuable''. [[http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2011/10/the-difference-between-management-and-leadership.html 1]]<br />
<br />
<br />
TRIBE is a program designed to inspire our leaders, and those with the potential to lead, to become their best. The curriculum will challenge each participant to explore their own leadership strengths and challenges, as well as learn how to create sustained, positive transformation within Mozilla. Beyond that, the program will help our current and future leaders learn how to nurture an environment of mutual trust and respect, one that creates stronger employee performance and engagement and ultimately results in greater overall impact on our business objectives.<br />
<br />
TRIBE invites participants to play an active role in their own learning. There will be no PowerPoint. These sessions intend to create an environment where people feel safe to step forward and be more vulnerable about their strengths, successes, and challenges. TRIBE is filled with relevant concepts and practical skills so participants walk out of each session equipped to immediately use what they’ve learned.<br />
<br />
All courses are two full days beginning at 9:00am and ending at approximately 4:30pm (local time). Your manager must be aware and supportive of your participation in each session. Registering to participate means you will be given one of a set number of spots within the session and that the entire cohort will expect you to attend. If, after your have been approved, you are unable to attend, we require at least five days notice and the support of your manager in order to withdraw you.<br />
<br />
<p><br />
<br />
==Sessions Overview==<br />
===Leadership Discovery: Know Your Strengths, Build Your Skills* – 2 days===<br />
'''*Prerequisite for all other sessions'''<br />
<br />
This two-day, immersive leadership course starts with you: your strengths as well as the behaviors and habits that get in the way of you being the most effective you can be. It’s based on leading edge research from the Leadership Circle Profile and from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_O._Clifton Dr. Donald O. Clifton], author of Strengths-based Leadership. The course is based on the proven concept that when people understand and apply their strengths and are aware of their reactive tendencies the effect on their lives and work is transformational.<br />
<br />
Together with a small cohort of Mozillians, participants in Leadership Discovery will work together to develop an awareness of their individual strengths and limitations, learn to appreciate failure as a key part of success, and support each other in becoming better leaders.<br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
Participants in Leadership Discovery, can expect to come away with: a new awareness of their own leadership strengths; skills to reduce their reactive tendencies; and practical ways to work better with others, including listening and creating stronger work relationships. Participants will also walk away with a detailed action plan for how to practically apply their new skills in their work, and personal life.<br />
<br />
When people are able to use their strengths every day, their engagement with work increases by 6x. Fully engaged leaders cultivate committed employees who strive to lead as well. The cycle is a beautiful thing.<br />
<br />
===Collaborative Leadership: Working with Others – 2 days===<br />
In most successful organizations, the best leaders create environments where people naturally work together to do remarkable things. In this two-day session, participants will come together to learn how to develop and support a culture of trust; one where people feel valued and listened to. With a cohort of peers, you will learn how to have courageous conversations, cultivate genuine curiosity, recognize other people’s strengths and be even more collaborative.<br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
Upon completion of this course, participants will have learned and practiced a set of skills that enable them to: have “courageous conversations” with anyone - whether as initiator or recipient; recognize and shift their perspective; give positive, affirming feedback; and more effectively collaborate with those they work with. Over time, with application, these small acts of leadership will begin to transform our culture to one where everyone feels like they belong and our collective energy is aimed at the same goals.<br />
<br />
===Leadership Presence: Discovering your Impact – 2 days===<br />
As a follow on to the foundational session Leadership Discovery, Leadership Presence takes the idea that deep self-awareness is a key attribute of the world’s best leaders, a few steps-further. This session reveals and underscores the natural leadership presence of each participant. <br />
<br />
All too often, we work hard to present a side of ourselves at work that we believe the world wants to see rather than expressing other compelling, sometimes more quirky and/or intriguing aspects of ourselves (because we think it makes us look stupid or incompetent, for example). This prolonged suppression of your “real” self can lead to stress and distraction and get in the way of you becoming a truly great leader.<br />
<br />
In this two-day session, participants will learn about an alternative system that encourages them to be “on type” and to contribute to the work environment in a way that is more creative, more spontaneous, and with increased resilience.<br />
<br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
With input from the group, participants will discover their “type” and how much more impactful they are when they communicate with others in their natural state. This process helps participants differentiate between what they do and the impact they have. With practice, this level of deep self-awareness will enable good leaders to become great.<br />

<hr />
<div>==Program Summary==<br />
[[image:TRIBE ID-1.jpg|70px|baseline|left]] <br />
<br />
''Managers work to get their employees to do what they did yesterday, but a little faster and a little cheaper. Leaders, on the other hand, know where they'd like to go, but understand that they can't get there without their tribe, without giving those they lead the tools to make something happen.<br />
<br />
''Managers want authority. Leaders take responsibility.<br />
<br />
''We need both. But we have to be careful not to confuse them. And it helps to remember that leaders are scarce and thus more valuable''. [[http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2011/10/the-difference-between-management-and-leadership.html 1]]<br />
<br />
<br />
TRIBE is a program designed to inspire our leaders, and those with the potential to lead, to become their best. The curriculum will challenge each participant to explore their own leadership strengths and challenges, as well as learn how to create sustained, positive transformation within Mozilla. Beyond that, the program will help our current and future leaders learn how to nurture an environment of mutual trust and respect, one that creates stronger employee performance and engagement and ultimately results in greater overall impact on our business objectives.<br />
<br />
TRIBE invites participates to play an active role in their own learning. There will be no PowerPoint. These sessions intend to create an environment where people feel safe to step forward and be more vulnerable about their strengths, successes, and challenges. TRIBE is filled with relevant concepts and practical skills so participants walk out of each session equipped to immediately use what they’ve learned.<br />
<br />
All courses are two full days beginning at 9:00am and ending at approximately 4:30pm (local time). Your manager must be aware and supportive of your participation in each session. Registering to participate means you will be given one of a set number of spots within the session and that the entire cohort will expect you to attend. If, after your have been approved, you are unable to attend, we require at least five days notice and the support of your manager in order to withdraw you.<br />
<br />
<p><br />
<br />
==Sessions Overview==<br />
===Leadership Discovery: Know Your Strengths, Build Your Skills* – 2 days===<br />
'''*Prerequisite for all other sessions'''<br />
<br />
This two-day, immersive leadership course starts with you: your strengths as well as the behaviors and habits that get in the way of you being the most effective you can be. It’s based on leading edge research from the Leadership Circle Profile and from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_O._Clifton Dr. Donald O. Clifton], author of Strengths-based Leadership. The course is based on the proven concept that when people understand and apply their strengths and are aware of their reactive tendencies the effect on their lives and work is transformational.<br />
<br />
Together with a small cohort of Mozillians, participants in Leadership Discovery will work together to develop an awareness of their individual strengths and limitations, learn to appreciate failure as a key part of success, and support each other in becoming better leaders.<br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
Participants in Leadership Discovery, can expect to come away with: a new awareness of their own leadership strengths; skills to reduce their reactive tendencies; and practical ways to work better with others, including listening and creating stronger work relationships. Participants will also walk away with a detailed action plan for how to practically apply their new skills in their work, and personal life.<br />
<br />
When people are able to use their strengths every day, their engagement with work increases by 6x. Fully engaged leaders cultivate committed employees who strive to lead as well. The cycle is a beautiful thing.<br />
<br />
===Collaborative Leadership: Working with Others – 2 days===<br />
In most successful organizations, the best leaders create environments where people naturally work together to do remarkable things. In this two-day session, participants will come together to learn how to develop and support a culture of trust; one where people feel valued and listened to. With a cohort of peers, you will learn how to have courageous conversations, cultivate genuine curiosity, recognize other people’s strengths and be even more collaborative.<br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
Upon completion of this course, participants will have learned and practiced a set of skills that enable them to: have “courageous conversations” with anyone - whether as initiator or recipient; recognize and shift their perspective; give positive, affirming feedback; and more effectively collaborate with those they work with. Over time, with application, these small acts of leadership will begin to transform our culture to one where everyone feels like they belong and our collective energy is aimed at the same goals.<br />
<br />
===Leadership Presence: Discovering your Impact – 2 days===<br />
As a follow on to the foundational session Leadership Discovery, Leadership Presence takes the idea that deep self-awareness is a key attribute of the world’s best leaders, a few steps-further. This session reveals and underscores the natural leadership presence of each participant. <br />
<br />
All too often, we work hard to present a side of ourselves at work that we believe the world wants to see rather than expressing other compelling, sometimes more quirky and/or intriguing aspects of ourselves (because we think it makes us look stupid or incompetent, for example). This prolonged suppression of your “real” self can lead to stress and distraction and get in the way of you becoming a truly great leader.<br />
<br />
In this two-day session, participants will learn about an alternative system that encourages them to be “on type” and to contribute to the work environment in a way that is more creative, more spontaneous, and with increased resilience.<br />
<br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
With input from the group, participants will discover their “type” and how much more impactful they are when they communicate with others in their natural state. This process helps participants differentiate between what they do and the impact they have. With practice, this level of deep self-awareness will enable good leaders to become great.<br />

''Managers work to get their employees to do what they did yesterday, but a little faster and a little cheaper.

<br />
TRIBE is a program designed to inspire our leaders, and those with the potential to lead, to become their best. The curriculum will challenge each participant to explore their own leadership strengths and challenges, as well as learn how to create sustained, positive transformation within Mozilla. Beyond that, the program will help our current and future leaders learn how to nurture an environment of mutual trust and respect, one that creates stronger employee performance and engagement and ultimately results in greater overall impact on our business objectives.<br />
<br />
TRIBE invites participates to play an active role in their own learning. There will be no PowerPoint. These sessions intend to create an environment where people feel safe to step forward and be more vulnerable about their strengths, successes, and challenges. TRIBE is filled with relevant concepts and practical skills so participants walk out of each session equipped to immediately use what they’ve learned.<br />
<br />
All courses are two full days beginning at 9:00am and ending at approximately 4:30pm (local time). Your manager must be aware and supportive of your participation in each session. Registering to participate means you will be given one of a set number of spots within the session and that the entire cohort will expect you to attend. If, after your have been approved, you are unable to attend, we require at least five days notice and the support of your manager in order to withdraw you.<br />

===Leadership Discovery: Know Your Strengths, Build Your Skills* – 2 days===<br />
'''*Prerequisite for all other sessions'''<br />
<br />
This two-day, immersive leadership course is based on the research of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_O._Clifton Dr. Donald O. Clifton]. His work uncovered the idea that all people have a unique combination of talents, knowledge, and skills -- strengths -- that they use in their daily lives to do their work, achieve their goals, and interact with others. And, when people understand and apply their strengths, the effect on their lives and work is transformational. <br />
<br />
Together with a small cohort of Mozillians, participants in Leadership Discovery will work together to develop an awareness of their individual strengths and limitations, learn to appreciate failure as a key part of success, and understand their reactive tendencies. <br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
Participants in Knowing Your Strengths, can expect to come away with not only new awareness of their own leadership strengths, but also a detailed action plan for how to practically apply the awareness in their work, and personal life, everyday. <br />
<br />
When people are able to use their strengths every day, their engagement with work increases by 6x. Fully engaged leaders cultivate committed employees who strive to lead as well. The cycle is a beautiful thing.<br />
<br />
===Collaborative Leadership: Working with Others – 2 days===<br />
In most successful organizations, the best leaders create environments where people naturally work together to do remarkable things. In this two-day session, participants will come together to learn how to develop and support a culture of trust; one where people feel valued and teams are adaptive, stable and confident. With a cohort of peers, our good leaders will work to become our best, by learning the value of courageous conversations, genuine curiosity and expressed gratitude on those they lead.<br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
Upon completion of this course, participants will have learned and practiced a set of skills that enable them to have “courageous conversations” with anyone - whether as initiator or recipient. Over time, with application, these small acts of leadership will begin to transform our culture to one where everyone feels like they belong and our collective energy is aimed at the same goals.<br />

'''TRIBE''' is a program designed to cause our good leaders, and those with the potential to be good, to become our best. The curriculum will challenge each participant to explore their own leadership strengths; to better understand how to use them to create sustained, positive transformation within Mozilla. Beyond that, the program will help our current and future leaders learn how to nurture an environment of mutual trust and respect, one that creates stronger employee performance and engagement and ultimately results in greater overall impact on objectives. <br />
<br />
All courses are two full days beginning at 9:00am and ending at approximately 4:00pm (local time). Your manager must be aware and supportive of your participation in each session. Registering to participate means you will be given one of a set number of spots within the session and that the entire cohort will expect you to attend. If, after your have been approved, you are unable to attend, we require at least five days notice and the support of your manager in order to withdraw you. <br />

<br />
==Sessions Overview==<br />
===Leadership Discovery: Know Your Strengths, Build Your Skills* – 2 days===<br />
'''*Prerequisite for all other sessions'''<br />
<br />
This two-day, immersive leadership course is based on the research of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_O._Clifton Dr. Donald O. Clifton]. His work uncovered the idea that all people have a unique combination of talents, knowledge, and skills -- strengths -- that they use in their daily lives to do their work, achieve their goals, and interact with others. And, when people understand and apply their strengths, the effect on their lives and work is transformational. <br />
<br />
Together with a small cohort of Mozillians, participants in Leadership Discovery will work together to develop an awareness of their individual strengths and limitations, learn to appreciate failure as a key part of success, and understand their reactive tendencies. <br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
Participants in Knowing Your Strengths, can expect to come away with not only new awareness of their own leadership strengths, but also a detailed action plan for how to practically apply the awareness in their work, and personal life, everyday. <br />
<br />
When people are able to use their strengths every day, their engagement with work increases by 6x. Fully engaged leaders cultivate committed employees who strive to lead as well. The cycle is a beautiful thing.<br />
<br />
===Collaborative Leadership: Working with Others – 2 days===<br />
In most successful organizations, the best leaders create environments where people naturally work together to do remarkable things. In this two-day session, participants will come together to learn how to develop and support a culture of trust; one where people feel valued and teams are adaptive, stable and confident. With a cohort of peers, our good leaders will work to become our best, by learning the value of courageous conversations, genuine curiosity and expressed gratitude on those they lead.<br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
Upon completion of this course, participants will have learned and practiced a set of skills that enable them to have “courageous conversations” with anyone - whether as initiator or recipient. Over time, with application, these small acts of leadership will begin to transform our culture to one where everyone feels like they belong and our collective energy is aimed at the same goals.<br />
<br />
===Leadership Presence: Discovering your Impact – 2 days===<br />
As a follow on to the foundational session Know your Strengths, Discovering your Impact takes the idea that deep self-awareness is a key attribute of the world’s best leaders, a few steps-further. <br />
<br />
All too often, we work hard to present a side of ourselves at work that we believe the world wants to see rather than expressing other compelling, sometimes more quirky and/or intriguing aspects of ourselves (because we think it makes us look stupid or incompetent, for example). This prolonged suppression of your “real” self can lead to stress and distraction and get in the way of you becoming a truly great leader.<br />
<br />
In this two-day session, leaders will learn about an alternative system that encourages them to be “on type” and to contribute to the work environment in a way that is more creative, more spontaneous, and with increased resilience.<br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
With input from the group, participants will discover their “type” and how much more impactful they are when they communicate with others in their natural state. With practice, this level of deep self-awareness will enable good leaders to become great.<br />

Together with a small cohort of Mozillians, participants in Leadership Discovery will work together to develop an awareness of their individual strengths and limitations, learn to appreciate failure as a key part of success, and understand their reactive tendencies. <br />
====Practical Outcomes====<br />
Participants in Knowing Your Strengths, can expect to come away with not only new awareness of their own leadership strengths, but also a detailed action plan for how to practically apply the awareness in their work, and personal life, everyday. <br />
<br />
When people are able to use their strengths every day, their engagement with work increases by 6x. Fully engaged leaders cultivate committed employees who strive to lead as well. The cycle is a beautiful thing.<br />

'''TRIBE''' is a program designed to cause our good leaders, and those with the potential to be good, to become our best. The curriculum will challenge each participant to explore their own leadership strengths; to better understand how to use them to create sustained, positive transformation within Mozilla. Beyond that, the program will help our current and future leaders learn how to nurture an environment of mutual trust and respect, one that creates stronger employee performance and engagement and ultimately results in greater overall impact on objectives. <br />
