Alan Zucker - Project Management Essentials
Founding Principal, PMP, PMI-ACP
Presentation Abstract
Agile has arrived. It is a widely accepted approach to developing software and is branching out into other domains and industries. As project managers, it is time for us to understand and embrace Agile.
In this presentation, Alan Zucker will share the secrets of Agile and why it is so alluring. Like a good romance, Agile can brighten our day, lighten our load, and change our outlook.
Agile customers are happier because they are involved. Agile projects are more likely to be successful. Agile creates empowered and committed teams. The teams deliver value incrementally and embrace change.
As with all change, becoming Agile can be difficult. But it is worth the effort.

Bob Mahler - Velocteach
Presentation Abstract
You’ve probably heard of Emotional Intelligence 2.0, or EQ, by Dr. Bradberry and Dr. Greaves. You might have even heard of Sales EQ by Jeb Blount, founder of Salesgravy.com. It’s almost a certainty that you have not heard of Risk EQ. That’s because it’s something new, developed by Bob!
Risk EQ is an examination of why we approach risks the way we do on an individual level. Risk EQ explores the fight or flight mode, the emotional versus rational parts of the brain and how they affect your decision-making process on your current projects. This presentation will also highlight what you can do about increasing your risk appetite and how you can seek to influence those around you by first understanding your own Risk Intelligence (Risk EQ)!
