Data Privacy:
Two little words – Many meanings – Huge consequences!

For those companies who do business in Europe, the recently passed EU General Data Protection Regulation has major implications regarding the handling and protection of data.

There are significant penalties associated with the mishandling of data, including data breaches which unfortunately have become a daily headline.

In the United States, the picture can be even more confusing – There is no overriding national law which covers data privacy.

In the US companies need to be aware of the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Financial Services Modernization Act, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and other federal regulations. And this doesn’t even include regulations issued by any of the 50 states.

This is not an issue that is relegated to lawyers.

IT Asset Managers have a crucial role to play in insuring that company and customer data is handled properly, is well protected, and the risk to the enterprise is minimized.

APMG   will explore the nexus of data privacy and IT asset management. The guest speaker for this webinar is Ann LaFrance.

Did you know that NASA lost a mission sent to Mars, because of one confusion with the metric system? Because of a simple mistake, US$125 million were sent to the space. Literally.

How was this failure possible? Murphy’s law?

In the Fortune 500 companies, 70% of the projects fail in some way.

These are projects where everything is done correctly, which have qualified professionals, matured processes and the most exotic tools. These projects are expected to succeed. So, why do they fail? It may look like Murphy’s law!

In this culturally rich webinar,  Luis Alberto Caceres Villota (LinkedIn profile) author of Murphy On Projects: Causas de falhas nos projetos e como preveni-las (Portuguese Edition) explores proposes a new approach to analyze failure in projects: exploring common behavioral issues that leads to failure in management.

Covering from attitudes up to mental processes which interfere in the decision making. These factors combined create 101 common situations which lead to failure: overambitious goals, superficial planning, abstinence during execution, insistence in ignoring the problems and many others.

The author introduces the “Five deadly sins of the project manager”, mentions some of the 25 classical mistakes and interesting laws and principles of the project management which are useful to prevent these situations.

Historical and well known cases will help to illustrate the concepts: from the Roman Empire, Napoleon, and the Titanic, until recent cases in NASA and US Army projects.

At the end of this webinar, the attendee you will have a clear picture of how behaviors affects the project results, and will visualize the necessary skills to address them.

Stakeholder communications can be complicated and challenging. However there are tools that can help to bring order and clarity to the process, enabling you to plan and deliver communications that are effective, efficient and evaluated.

The Government Communication Service (GCS) supports the work of 25 UK ministerial departments, 21 non-ministerial departments and over 300 agencies and other public bodies.

The purpose of the GCS is to deliver world-class public service communications. In this webinar, Jessica Pearce will talk about the approach used by government communicators to plan and deliver excellent stakeholder and internal communications campaigns.

When stakeholder communication is done well, its contribution to the success of projects and programmes can be profound.

In this webinar Jessica will share examples of what can happen when it is not done well, what to think about when planning stakeholder communications, and how audience insight can lead to highly effective communications.

There are a number of tools available to help you plan communications. Attendees will learn about the GCS approach to campaign planning using ‘OASIS’, a five step model designed to help make the planning process simpler and easier to remember.

Whether you are responsible for planning stakeholder engagement, are supported by a communications team, or want to improve your own stakeholder communications activities, tools such as OASIS can guide and inform your thinking.
