Everybody knows DevOps Is About
Bringing Dev & Ops Together

But DevOps is also about understanding value, fast delivery, automation, quality, and tuning complex adaptive systems in a way that optimizes the whole.

In The Phoenix Project: A Novel about IT, DevOps, and Helping Your Business Win  there are a lot of parallels drawn between the world of mass manufacturing and IT engineering. But even though it’s a fantastic book, Gene Kim and his co-authors only scratch the surface of these parallels.

If we are actually going to apply them, we need more. The total quality revolution of manufacturing offers more lessons for IT engineering teams than most of us realize…way more than the taste we get in The Phoenix Project would suggest.

Join Chris Knotts, PMP – (LinkedIn profile) and learn the lessons can be summed up in one word: Lean.

Processes for preparing data, analyzing data, building advanced analytics models, interpreting results and telling stories with data remain manual and prone to bias.

The problem compounds as data volumes increase and become more complex, making it difficult to determine the most relevant, accurate and actionable findings.

A new paradigm, augmented analytics, has emerged. Central to this development is machine-learning automation to augment human intelligence and contextual awareness by transforming how we create, interpret and share analytics.

In this webinar, Rita L. Sallam (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Research VP  will discuss the impact of augment analytics and how you can plan for this disruption.

Learn how augmented analytics is crucial for unbiased, timely and accurate decisions and actions.

Discussion Topics:

  • Augmented analytics capabilities and their ramifications for organizational and market disruption
  • Ways augmented analytics will transform how analytics content is authored, shared and interpreted
  • Adopting augmented analytics capabilities to modernize and drive digital transformation and innovation

The Skills Gap Is Growing, The Workforce Is Aging,
And Labor Shortages Are Looming!

Last year, nearly 70% of HR professionals reported difficulty recruiting for full-time positions.

While the war on talent is nothing new, now more than ever, organizations need to think outside the box when it comes to recruiting great people.

Attracting and retaining older workers as part of your recruiting mix can yield dividends in the areas of engagement, workforce stability, and cognitive diversity.

Join Susan Weinstock (LinkedIn profile) Vice President of Financial Resilience Programming, AARP and learn more about why cultivating a multigenerational workforce is good for business.
