The four knowledge cornerstones of project risk management are:

1. Project Management (how to run a project)
2. Earned Value Management (how to measure project performance)
3. Risk Management (how to identify and mitigate risks)
4. Subcontract management (how to manage subcontractors)

Earned Value Management (EVM) is essential to project success. It is used extensively in the Department of Defense (DOD) and construction industries but not in the IT industry.

In this webinar John Ayers (LinkedIn profile) focuses on applying EVM to large IT projects. It will present: a brief overview of the EVM fundamentals; why EVM is not used on large IT projects; how to create a baseline for the project; what a rolling wave is and how to use it; and the benefits of using EVM on large IT projects.

• Refresher on EVM fundamentals
• Understand why EVM is not used on large IT projects

As language, vision and machine learning (ML) cloud services grow in number, organizations gain easy access to artificial intelligence (AI) without having to build AI models from scratch.

While these services are far from mature, they offer immediate value to businesses that want to enhance their application portfolio with AI and machine learning.

1. Should you and could you stay with the single cloud provider to take advantage of a familiar environment?
2. Or should you go multi-cloud to mix and match best-of-breed capabilities?

In this webinar Van L. Baker (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner VP Analyst helps you determine the right AI strategy for your organization.

Discussion Topics:

• Why more organizations can access AI without building AI models from scratch

Recognizing potential bias in your organization is the easy part.

We can see the issues, but how do we begin breaking down barriers and creating inclusion?

When it comes to confronting racism and bias, many of us have no idea how to start the conversation.

That is when doubt, hesitation, and even fear can creep in. What if sharing your concern only makes matters worse?

What if someone feels they are being falsely labeled or unjustly “accused”?

These potential scenarios can be frightening for many reasons:

• As an organization,
  • you can decide to do nothing and hope for the best,
  • or you can equip your people with the skills to engage in these critical conversations and
  • mitigate their own biases.

In this session, Robert will explore ways to create the conditions for successfully addressing bias in a way that promotes dialog and discovery.

You’ll learn how to:

• Recognize organizational situations/conditions that need to be addressed.
• Establish clear goals for a successful outcome.
• Create an environment that promotes learning and change.
• Provide ongoing support.
