Nebraska Digital Government Summit

Embassy Suites
1040 P Street
Lincoln, NE 68508
November 17, 2009

"In these challenging times it's more important than ever that we share our best practices and discover how we can work together on enterprise IT solutions. We must find ways to deliver technology services more cost-effectively. This includes continued collaboration on the IT infrastructure as well as smarter, more enterprise-oriented business applications. In addition, IT professionals have a major contribution to make in increasing the transparency and accountability of government operations, including efforts around the 2009 Recovery Act. The Nebraska Digital Government Summit provides a cost-effective and convenient forum for us to share ideas, learn about new trends and emerging technologies, while discussing our common challenges, goals, and success. I encourage you to attend and look forward to seeing you there."

~ Brenda L. Decker, Chief Information Officer, State of Nebraska Information Technology Services


Opening Keynote

Mark AllenThe Art of Ironman Success

Mark Allen, 6-Time World Champion, Ironman Triathlon
In Government IT today, success - or even holding on for dear life - requires great toughness, endurance and resiliency. Who better to inspire us than the man who is arguably the most successful endurance athlete of our time? As a professional triathlete, Mark won 66 of the 96 races he entered, five consecutive Ironman World Championships (a record), and another World Championship at age 37 (a record). These achievements did not come easy. In this fascinating Keynote address, Mark shares the principles that enabled him to turn devastating setbacks into historic triumphs; principles each of us can use to achieve the highest levels of success in our personal and professional lives.
