Closing Session by John Stenbeck - “Becoming Indispensable … Not Irreplaceable”
Have you ever wondered why salespeople get promoted when technical professionals are clearly smarter! Would you like a career with the “WOW!” factor? Then this Keynote has answers for YOU!! Learn the three high-octane quantitatively-proven keys that took decades to cull and distill into the formula will unlock your personal powerhouse. See how to define the roadmap that unleashes all of your potential as John shares the unexpected resources that exponentially improved his results. This is not a “get rich quick” or “instant success” gimmick because it is reality-based. Technical professionals demand results because they know improving results is the key to career opportunity! This powerful session gives you specific practical steps to focusing your teams and delivering amazing project outcomes and that auto...magically leads to success. The information in this presentation is rigorous, concise and gets to the point with focused answers to your challenges. It is designed to be applied in your environment... and accelerate your career!
Breakout sessions will include an agile track, leadership track and a technical track that has a PMO session in it. Besides Kari and John, we have another agile speaker Mike Ryan, leadership speeches from Dr. Joey Faucette and Mike O'Brochta; and our PMO team of Darryl Agee, Emily Cohen, Donnie Havens and Jennifer Havens. Find out more information about our speakers in our bio page.
