Professional Development: EVOLVE 2026 NYC

Hi [Manager’s Name],

‍

I’m interested in attending EVOLVE by Cortex on September 24th in NYC. It is the leading event focused on the future of Engineering Operations and organizational maturity. 

‍

Learning directly from practitioners who have mastered automated readiness and governance will help us avoid common pitfalls and accelerate our delivery. 

‍

The current price is $[Price], but it increases after [Date]. I’d like to lock in this rate now and share a recap with the team afterward.

Proposal: EVOLVE 2026 / Engineering Operations Training

Hi [Manager’s Name],

‍

I’d like to attend EVOLVE by Cortex on September 24th in New York City.

As our engineering organization faces increasing complexity, the bottleneck is no longer how fast we write code, but how we operate as a team. EVOLVE is the primary forum for learning how to move from manual spreadsheets to a unified Engineering Operations mindset.

I will bring back actionable strategies to:

  • Reduce Friction: Identify and eliminate the bottlenecks in our current SDLC. 
  • Ensure Readiness: Implement shared definitions of "good" for production-ready code. 
  • Unify Teams: Align our platform and SRE functions to act as a single "mission control." 
  • I will provide a full summary of key takeaways and an implementation plan for the team after the event. 

Cost Breakdown:

  • Ticket: $[Price] (Currently [Phase] Pricing)
  • Travel/Hotel: $[Estimate]
  • Total: $[Total]

Thank you for your support.
