A Sixth Sense for Project Management®

One year after publishing his Amazon best-seller, A Sixth Sense for Project Management®, Tres Roeder, MBA, PMP will discuss the state of project management and recent developments on the human side of change.

Charles Dickens began his famous novel, A Tale of Two Cities, by writing “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness …”

And so it is with project management.

The number of people sitting for the PMP test remains very high; Agile certification is hot; and many organizations are adding Project Management Offices and deepening their investment in project management.

At the same time, many project managers are looking for work, some organizations are reducing or even eliminating project management staff, and other people and organizations are stagnant in their antiquated approach to project management.

One year after writing his book on the state of the project management profession and a call for a more balanced approach, Mr. Roeder shares recent developments in the profession and his expert perspective on how to be a part of the future.

Presenter: Tres Roeder (LinkedIn profile) is recognized as a global expert on project management. He regularly speaks at global project management events, including, the Project Management Institute’s Global Congresses. Mr. Roeder educates project managers how to achieve project success by deploying a balanced approach with a particular emphasis on people. Tres is often quoted in books & articles (MSN Money, Microsoft Press, and the Project Management Institute), and released his best-selling book “A Sixth Sense for Project Management®â€ on the 10th anniversary of the founding of Roeder Consulting in 2011

Public cloud is well established, delivering a spectrum of services to businesses of all sizes. Many enterprises, however, have taken a cautious approach to the cloud. While most businesses are using some kind of pubic SaaS offering, there is a reluctance to move core applications and services outside the enterprise data center.

Building a private cloud enables enterprises to enjoy the benefits of cloud infrastructures without the security and service issues of the public cloud.

Using a case study of a company that has undertaken a project to build an enterprise cloud for its internal use, TAC Thought Leader Beth Cohen will explore the available options and issues when building an internal cloud IT infrastructure.

Hot issues to be addressed include:

• What are the compelling business reasons for building an enterprise cloud?
• What are the current enterprise-class cloud products, and how do they compare?
• What gotchas should be considered when implementing an enterprise cloud environment for your company?

Presenter: Beth Cohen, (LinkedIn profile) has more than 20 years of experience building strong IT-delivery organizations from user and vendor perspectives. Her specific expertise includes building scalable, robust IT architectures, operating systems, desktop support, process improvement, program management, IT/business alignment, security, and integration of networks, applications, and systems.
