The verification email does not arrive
Check your spam and/or junk folders for the email. We know that some corporate email firewalls block our emails, and in this case you'll need to get in touch (see below) for us to move your ticket to an alternative email address.
The verification email link does not work
The links are time limited, so make sure you've tried in the last few minutes. If not, some corporate email firewalls have occasionally corrupted the verification links, and in this case you'll need to get in touch (see below) for us to move your ticket to an alternative email address.
Where can I find my ticket?
Your ticket will have been emailed to you from support@tito.io (Tito is our ticketing provider). If you don't have an email from Tito with your ticket, check with the person who made the booking originally. Otherwise, get in touch and we'll be able to help.
Getting help

Staff+ engineers often talk about the struggle of influencing without authority. One less talked about method of influencing is understanding and aligning incentives.
All of us are motivated by different things, but there is a common set that tends to apply to most people. By understanding which of these are coming into play in a situation and finding ways to align the project, behaviour, or change that you want to see with the incentives people already have, you can find convincing them significantly easier.
In this talk, I will go through some of the common incentives and motivators as well as real examples that I’ve encountered. I will talk through some cases where the incentive structure backfired, cases where we consciously put in place incentives, and cases where we just found better ways to compromise to meet everyone’s goals. Finally, I will talk about my strategies for nudging these incentives to work to my advantage. A lot can be accomplished through a little careful carrot placement.
