יום טוב,

לפני שתתחיל למלא את הטופס, ברצוננו להודות לך בשם הקהילה על נכונותך לתרום מזמנך ולחלוק את הידע שלך עם הקהילה. זה לא טריוויאלי ואנו מעריכים מאוד כל מתנדב. תודה!

בכל שאלה שעולה אתה יכול לפנות אל רונן אריאלי דרך פייסבוק או לינקדאין.

כיצד למלא את הטופס?

שפה: הקבוצה היא בעברית וכל ההרצאות תמיד בשפה העברית. עם זה, את הפרטים של המפגש והמרצה אנחנו צריכים גם בעברית וגם באנגלית. הסיבה היא שחלק מהמערכות איתן אנחנו משתמשים לא תומכות בעברית ולכן אנחנו נאלצים לרשום את המפגשים במערכות אלו בשפה האנגלית.

תאריכים: כל המפגשים הם וירטואליים (בלי קשר לקורנה הקבוצה היא קבוצה וירטואלית בהגדרה כבר מעל יותר מ 10 שנים). לכן אנחנו גמישים מבחינת הזמנים והתאיריכם של המפגשים. אלא התעלם מהתאריכים המופיעים בטופס, ותבחר את התאריכים אשר מתאימים לך למפגש.

אנא השלם כמה שיותר תאריכים על מנת לאפשר גמישות. אתה יכול גם לתאר במילים זמנים ותאריכים אשר עדיפים מבחינתך במקום לרשום תאריכים מסוימים. בכל מקרה בו ההרצאה תיבחר, אנחנו ניצור עמך קשר לקביעת הזמן הסופי של המפגש.

* שעות תחילת מפגש מומלץ בין 15:00 לבין 19:00

* מומלץ לוודא שאין אירוע או חד באותו תאריך.

דרכי יצירת קשר

חשוב ביותר! פרטי יצירת הקשר נשמרים רק לשימוש פנימי לצורך תיאום עם הדוברים. אנא השלם כמה שיותר ערוצי תקשורת על מנת לוודא שנוכל להגיע אלייך במידת הצורך.

יש להשלים לפחות אחד מהערוצי התקשורת הבאים ובנוסף אתה יכול לצרף כל ערוץ תקשורת בו אפשר ליצור איתך קשר: (1) מספר טלפון, (2) קישור לפרופיל בפייסבוק ו(3) קישור לפרופיל ב LinkedIn.

* במקרה שיש בעיה בזמן ההרצאה כמו ניתוק האינטרנט, טלפון יכול מאוד לעזור למנוע מהמרצה להמשיך לדבר בלי ששומעים אותו. לא חובה אבל מומלץ מאוד לצרף גם מספר טלפון.

בכל שאלה אתה יכול לפנות אל רונן אריאלי בפייסבוק או בלינקדאין:
