THINK BIG, Learn Fast, Start Now!

This Keynote is a MUST SEE for every project manager!

Session Information

Your competitors have the freedom to see the world different because they’re programmed to THINK BIG,  Learn Fast, Start Now!

They don’t care about your legacy systems and mindset, how you operate your business, or the numbers you need to hit.

Your business is already dead. You just don’t know it yet.

How do you unlearn to relearn the skills you need to keep your business relevant?

In this keynote Barry  shares how he helped the largest organizations on the planet reinvent how they approach new product development and innovation in ExecCamp.

They take executives out of the boardroom and back on the streets to learn at light speed, and learn by doing.

• Start new businesses inside a large enterprise
• Train executives to recapture their entrepreneurial spirit
• Blow up legacy mindsets and see opportunity through new lenses
• Establish killer teams to conquer new territory
• Create a culture of continuous experimentation
• Test strategy through execution in minutes not months or years.

Strategic planning is at the heart of organizations of all sizes.

Strategic planning is an imperative for midsize organizations that have to ensure effective use of scarce resources. Leading resource-constrained IT teams requires clarity of purpose and outcomes.

An IT strategy clearly defines what has to get done, in what priority, and how success will be measured.

There is an art and a science to developing an IT strategy.

In this webinar Heather Colella, (LinkedIn profile) Gartner Research VP explores the art of strategic planning and helps midsize organizations articulate IT’s contribution.

Discussion Topics:

• Real-world examples of one-page strategies
• How a one-page strategy is used to demonstrate contribution to business value
• How a one-page strategy is used to inspire and engage business peers in a new conversation about IT’s contribution to business performance

Microservices are taking the software engineering world by storm.

This architectural style of decomposing applications into network-based services has been credited with increasing software delivery speed and improving scalability and resiliency at leading companies like Amazon and Netflix.

With all the buzz around microservices, many organizations are jumping in with both feet.

However, to succeed with a microservice architecture in the long run, you’ll need to deal with the increasing complexity of your microservice-based software system as it grows.

Taking a design-based approach from the outset will help you scale up more smoothly and establish a sustainable implementation.

Learn the design principles, architectural practices and organizational considerations that will help you succeed with microservices over the long term.

You’ll walk away from this discussion with ideas and guidelines that will help you reap the benefits of a microservice architecture while avoiding its potential pitfalls.
