SHARE Virtual Experience 2021
Did you know that there is a mainframe culture? If you're a SHARE attendee, you may think that SHARE is the essence of mainframe culture - and in some ways, you wouldn't be wrong. But it's as much a culture that we bring with us to SHARE after being mentored into it at work, as it is learning the culture as experience at SHARE, from networking, to history, to funny traditions.
This session will look at the various dimensions and facets of mainframe culture and socialization, trace the various threads to their histories and sources, suggest ways to perpetuate and build that culture as a new generation arrives, and then open the virtual floor to discussion and brainstorming of additional insights in the Q&A.
