OPENING KEYNOTE
How to Measure Anything - Even the Value of IT!
Douglas W. Hubbard, Author, Researcher
ComputerWorld wrote: "Hubbard has made a career of finding ways to measure things that other folks thought were immeasurable." In this fascinating and illuminating keynote, Doug Hubbard proves that every "immeasurable" you ever encountered was actually measurable - if you knew how. And despite what you may have heard, this most definitely includes intangibles like customer satisfaction, technology risk and technology ROI. If you'd like to fare better in the project-approval wars, don't miss this session!
SECOND DAY KEYNOTE
"Life After"
Cathilea Robinett, Executive Vice President, Center for Digital Government/e.Republic, Inc.
You've made cuts in your budgets, staff, services and some of your most strategic programs and projects. As a result, you've probably been left with greatly lowered expectations about what comes next, if you've allowed yourself to think about it at all. But there are encouraging signs that the worst is over. Suddenly the most important question becomes "How do we survive the recovery?" If this has been a different kind of recession, it calls for a different kind of recovery. Some call it a "fundamental reset." It's an unprecedented opportunity - if we're ready. This keynote address is filled with practical advice while exploring what "life after" might be like for our organizations, for the communities we serve and for us as individuals.
GENERAL SESSION
Management's 7 Deadly Sins
Gopal Kapur, Founder and President, Center for Project Management
Managers live in a maddening world. It's a world where expectations are off the charts, requirements are vague, commitments are tenuous, priorities shift, and responsibility is often given with marginal authority. So what do most managers do? They jump into the chasm and hope the rope holds. We've all seen managers in this position and we've seen the classic mistakes that are made. In this session you will have the opportunity to assess yourself and your organization while learning practical solutions to avoid committing management's seven deadly sins.
