Two award-winning authors and international keynote speakers have found the key to confident humility, but not without a few hiccups along the way.

Karin Hurt and David Dye have used lessons learned from those losses as a foundation for creating their Winning Well model, which helps them guide today’s business leaders and HR professionals.

Karin and David use their firsthand experience and years of collective knowledge to help leaders obtain more influence and impact, and to find what it takes to show up in a strong, charismatic and confident way without being a jerk.

In a lifelong learning journey, sometimes losses are the best opportunities to rediscover confidence and modesty, which today’s leaders must demonstrate as they guide their people to greatness.

Compliance courses are tedious and difficult to learn. They are full of legal citations, policies, procedures, rules and regulations that learners tune of in the first few pages or seconds of the lessons.

However, it is easier and more fun for the learners, for example, to hear a story of how a worker lost her vision because of not wearing safety goggles, or a worker fudging on travel expenses terminated because of unethical practices. Stories instantly make difficult lessons easy to relate to.

In this session, you will learn the three proven steps to convert boring legal topics into meaningful stories and real-life experiences that create interesting, compelling learning and stick with your learners.

All organizations that run large Programs for a living must assemble deep expertise in disciplines including scheduling, cost analysis, risk analysis, and earned value management.

Each requires appropriate tools and data and must collaborate with agility across the data supply chain, both within and across organizational boundaries, both for individual Programs and across portfolios of Programs. But it is all too common to end up with parallel worlds.

How can we unify these worlds in a way that enhances the work of each discipline and delivers more value to the organization?

Drawing on insights and terminology from systems theory, enterprise information architecture and data warehousing, software pattern languages, network theory, and engagements with NASA and other large, distributed organizations, this presentation takes a holistic look at the programmatics data supply chain.

Dan will ask questions such as:

• What are the typical pain points in data hand-offs across organization boundaries?
• Are we living in a world of mostly data “copies” rather than “originals” (i.e., from the ultimate system of record) run on applications mostly built to handle originals?
• Does siloed data for schedule, cost, risk, and earned value meet the 80/20 rule? Or the 20/80 rule?
• To what extent are the challenges in unifying data across programs and up and down data supply chains technical vs. organizational and cultural? Can we nudge behavior by making the “right” way the easy way?

Presenter: Dan Friedrich CEO/CTO of Friedrich, Klatt and Associates (FK&A), a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner in Data Analytics, and Microsoft’s Global Partner of the Year in 2007 for Enterprise Project Management for an Earned Value Data Mart solution. Dan is President of the Chicago Chapter of the Microsoft Project User Group (MPUG), and is a frequent presenter on MPUG’s international Lunch & Learn Webinar series, most recently a “trilogy” on Master Schedule Best Practices, and other industry events, including papers for the 2017 and 2018 NASA Cost and Schedule Symposiums.

These are the things Dan does by day, but by night he does comedy sketch writing, directing, and performing, and he is a graduate of the Second City Conservatory and Improv Olympic 🙂

In this webinar Alex Pettit will describe one of the most important models in IT research that many practitioners have never heard of TAM.

For a comparison look at some acceptance models review the white paper User Acceptance of Information Technology:Theories and Models
