There’s a lot of hype around DevOps, but do you really understand what it means for your organization or what it entails?

Increasing the speed of value delivery isn’t as simple as saying you are “doing” agile or DevOps. DevOps applies agile principles of discipline, collaboration, and early feedback to tasks. “Being” DevOps requires everyone involved in product development lifecycle to change how they currently work and to expand their knowledge and capabilities into new areas.

In this webinar, Peter Hyde (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Sr Director Analyst helps you understand and apply the keys for DevOps success at your organization.

Discussion Topics:

  • What DevOps is and what it is not
  • The keys critical to DevOps success
  • How to build your DevOps practice into your software development lifecycle (SDLC)

Revzilla’s Talia Edmundson Shares His Secrets

A strong and vibrant workplace culture delivers better business results and makes for a place we love to work at.

But:

  • What is the secret to creating and sustaining a great workplace culture?
    • Is it the company mission or the leadership?
    • Perhaps it’s the beanbag chairs and ping-pong tables.

And even if you do know, where do you start? What should you prioritize — and how do you get buy-in from leaders, managers, and employees?

Who better to ask than the folks at online motorcycle-gear retailer RevZilla.com who have been recognized as a Top Workplace in Philadelphia for five years in a row.

Join Fraser Marlow, (LinkedIn profile) Head of Workplace Research, Energage, and Talia Edmundson, (LinkedIn profile) director of human resources at RevZilla, for a candid discussion about workplace culture.

They will explore:

  • How to know where your culture really stands — and why it’s important
  • The key drivers of workplace culture
  • What “great” looks like in today’s standout organizations
  • Real-world examples of being intentional about culture
  • How to approach building a great culture — and how to get started

For years cellphones (now called smartphones!) have been the bane of trainers. But not anymore. With the right tools, trainers can turn smart devices into powerful learning tools.

In this session, Bob will both share – and model for you strategies that he will be using in his pre-conference workshop and other sessions at the Training Conference — and you’ll get to experience how the methods can be used even in a webinar.

Included will be:

  1. Using smartphones to engage people before the class even starts — even weeks in advance!
  2. Creating a quick pre-class survey
  3. Using smart devices to create action idealists — and action plans
  4. Conducting a powerful Q&A session — begins during class — and allows additional answers to be pushed out after class
  5. And much more. Bob has 17 strategies in total

Presenter:  Becky Pike Pluth (LinkedIn profile) President and CEO, The Bob Pike Group Becky has more than 17 years of exposure to Bob Pike’s Creative Training Techniques (CTT) and vast experience in cross-functional training design and delivery, project management and business operations. She easily employs a participant-centered approach to classroom training, one-on-one training and blended e-learning and author of numerous professional development training materials including:

Online Webinar – Recorded
Activity Type:  Education – Online or Digital Media 1 PDU – Free
Provider: Gartner Webinars

Leading companies across varied industries move from “just” digital business to using technology to tackle society’s larger issues. “Identity” becomes about who you are in the digital society.

“Access” becomes about being able to participate in, well, life. This provocative, fast-paced webinar argues that the Silicon Valley way of creating a better world is short-sighted and misguided.

Discussion Topics:

  • How solutionism – the belief that all big problems in the world have benign technological solutions – does more harm than good
  • How digital innovation is less about solutions and more about balancing fundamental dualities in society, such as freedom and safety, or individuality and the collective
  • What you need to address in your organization to get it right
