Transformacja nie musi być droga. Praktyczny poradnik jak za darmo wprowadzać zmiany, na myśl o których nawet IT poczuje ekscytację.

„Nie możemy tego zrobić, bo nie mamy dobrego toola”, „To by trzeba mieć nowy system do raportowania”, „Zawsze to tak robiliśmy” Brzmi znajomo? No dobra, czasami rzeczywiście nie mamy narzędzia, ale znacznie częściej możemy mimo to zmieniać i wpływać na nasze organizacje jeśli zrozumiemy, po co tu jesteśmy i co mamy do zrobienia.

Jak zacząć zmieniać świat za 200$?

Postęp technologiczny ma ogromny wpływ na naszą planetę. Warto postawić sobie pytanie: w jaki sposób my, managerowie IT, możemy przyczynić się do ulepszenia świata? Czy decyzje, które na co dzień podejmujemy – dotyczące sprzętu IT, budowania zespołów i zaangażowania w projekty mają w tym kontekście jakieś znaczenie?

IT Manager of tomorrow is driven by tomorrow.

Co powinniśmy brać pod uwagę w kontekście jutra? Nie tylko technologię, ale też biznes, który wspieramy, partnerów, którym towarzyszymy, organizację, którą współtworzymy. „Menadżer IT jutra” potrafi dziś działać tak, by zabezpieczyć otoczenie na wyzwania przyszłości. Tak by jutro być pierwszym partnerem, o którym się myśli w kontekście wspólnego budowania organizacji i biznesu. W ten sposób, zabezpiecza też „swoje” jutro zawodowe. Tyle, że jako efekt swoich działań, a nie ich pierwszy cel. Zapewnia popyt na swoje usługi, a w konsekwencji otwiera sobie drogę do wyboru projektu, obszaru, a nawet pracodawcy, czy przyszłej roli. Menedżer IT jutra, to współodpowiedzialny partner, nie dostawca. Solidna opoka i przewodnik po świecie technologii. Myśli o jutrze każdego dnia. A o czym konkretnie?

Do high velocity organizations need IT Service Management?

{In the trailer guy voice) In a world … of “digital” product management, one question is constantly being asked – is ITSM still relevant? The answer is “yes, but not in the same way”. If you’re interested in finding out why, join Akshay Anand (Product Ambassador, ITSM) to understand: - How service organizations are changing their ways of working - Why the role of Service Management needs to change (and how) - How these trends are reflected in the ITIL 4 “High Velocity IT” publication

Funny to Money: Tapping Into Your Sense of Humor for Fun (and Profit)

Back after a standout session at last year's conference, Andrew Tarvin returns to take us deeper into developing our skill of humor. The truth is that you are far more capable than you think. The question isn’t, “Are you funny?” The question is “What kind of funny are you?” By combining top communication theory with science-backed research and a whole-heckuva-lotta comedic trial and error, we’ve discovered the 7 humor profiles anyone can leverage for creating humor that works (that won’t get you cancelled).

Excellence in Leadership

2020 was year of massive disruption for organizations. We overcame much, and we accomplished much. But one thing has become clear: Digital Transformation and the Covid pandemic haven’t so much changed the future of leadership, but rather exposed just how irrelevant traditional leadership thinking is going forward Traditional leadership models focus on what we do as leaders. What’s missing is who we are. Leaders must renegotiate their relationship with three foundational elements. This session will challenge those relationships and encourage attendees on their path to Leadership Excellence.

The future of work isn’t about working from home – OANDA’s case study

In 2020 Covid-19 upended our jobs and shifted the way people around the world have had to work. At the same time OANDA has grown globally with more people working across locations, time zones and teams. The question everyone has been asking is how often we will be working from home after the pandemic. When we set out to answer that question at OANDA, we discovered that whether someone was at home or in the office wasn’t the highest value problem to solve. So what was it? With this presentation we'd like to share OANDA's case study of how the Future of Work project met both business strategy and employees expectations. We'll go through the process of gaining insights, defining needs and implementing solutions. Topic: #future of workplace #COVID-19 lessons learned and stories

What common has a good leader, baker and captain, so how to build engaged and happy team?

Do you believe that the role of a leader is not to come up with all the great ideas. The role of a leader is to create an environment in which great ideas can happen? Is it true that the only definition of a leader is someone who has followers? Or maybe leadership is a process, which maximize the efforts of others, towards the achievement of a goal? In my speech, based on my observations, knowledge and experience, I will be talking about those dilemmas and other couple of the most important aspects of the leadership 🧑🏻‍💻 Let's meet online and share our opinion!

Who are your leaders? No, not in the org-chart. Who do you choose to follow? Why them? Who has chosen to follow you? Why should they? In this workshop, we will explore the concept of Humane Leadership, and why leadership is a choice that many don’t make, even if they have ‘leader’ written in their job title. We will also unpack how making that choice can be transformative for you and those who you offer to lead. Saturated in humanity, confident in its humility and revolutionary in its potential.

How to use OKR to drive a Digital transformation

Since COVID breakout we've started using digital tools to communicate on a scale that was unseen ever before. Lack of face-to-face contact introduced a new set of challenges with alignment and trust as key factors of success or even survival. During the workshop you will learn how to use OKRs to enhance communication across remote teams, ensure alignment and, most important, deliver strategic outcomes. Learning will take place in groups - we will go through a few cases in a role-play fashion. Prior OKR knowledge/experience is not required.
