With the rise in popularity of Distributed Version Control Systems (DVCS) in recent years, Git has gained momentum in pockets of enterprise environments.

Very similar to the Agile movement that has been transforming the software world, Git is rising to popularity because of developers’ passion for better software and efficiency.But is the enterprise ready to adopt an entirely new model of working, possibly sacrificing the process management and security aspects of traditional Software Configuration & Change Management (SCCM)?

In this webinar, AccuRev’s Chris Lucca (LinkedIn profile) will explain:

  • The reasons developers choose to use Git as their SCCM tool
  • The hidden risks of using Git across an enterprise that often lead to costly manual workarounds
  • Alternative solutions that integrate with Git to make it enterprise-ready

Hosted By: The Ken Blanchard Companies

Don’t let your blind spots catch you off guard. We all have blind spots when it comes to understanding and accepting when another’s world view is different from our own. When we find ourselves getting defensive, irritated, or even hostile, it is often because we have encountered a personality that we cannot relate to.

In this webinar, best-selling author and consultant Scott Blanchard (LinkedIn profile) and best-selling author and master certified coach Madeleine Homan-Blanchard (LinkedIn profile) will explore personality and temperament and how they impact leadership influence and effectiveness.

You’ll learn how a better understanding of yourself allows you to better understand others—both on the job and off. Topics to be explored include:

  • Understanding the four temperaments
  • Exploring your shadow temperament
  • The role of temperament in a work setting
  • How temperament can be used to create stronger work relationships

Appropriate for all levels within an organization, don’t miss this opportunity to look at how a better understanding of temperament can lessen interpersonal conflict at work and at home.

By learning a simple, usable framework, you can take your first steps toward a better understanding of yourself and others that can show you the patterns that distinguish and differentiate people.
