PRE-CONFERENCE SESSIONS (a review of the 2017 offerings)
PRE1 – Project Management Basics for Preparedness Planners
Sunday, April 22, 2017, 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. (half-day course)
You have a LOT of work on your plate; do you know how to maximize your efforts? Meeting with leaders, scheduling planning sessions, scripting exercises. Updating plans, tracking due dates, and running reports. Communicating with participants, managing risks, reporting progress. How do you manage it all?!?
In this session, Dr. Lindstedt will teach you the basics of project management. Using a combination of lecture, examples, and exercises, this engaging and fast-paced session will get you up to speed quickly, and send you back to your desk with a virtual armload of tools.
Session outline:
- What is a project? A project manager?
- What is the basic terminology of project management?
- What are the phases of a project? Plan/manage/close a project?
Registration Fee: $350
Presented by: David Lindstedt, PhD, PMP, CBCP
PRE2 – Measures and Metrics for Preparedness: A Hands-On Workshop
Sunday, April 22, 2017, 1:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. (half-day course)
Infographics, big-data, dashboards, key performance indicators (KPIs), decision-based data, capability metrics, everyone wants measures and metrics, and preparedness planning has been very slow to provide it. We can count numbers of plans, but we can’t provide meaningful metrics.
Attend this fast-paced and engaging session (really!) on measuring recoverability capabilities. Dr. Lindstedt will outline an integrated model for preparedness planning that allows all aspects to be captured for metrics. You will learn a method for measuring preparedness and scoring confidence. You will get the hands-on opportunity to practice “EZ” scoring for both BCP and IT DR (or general preparedness as you wish). In addition, you will get the chance to network closely with those in your field as you work to contemplate and address case studies.
NOTE: Participants will be given 90 days of FREE access to an online preparedness capability metrics tool, unlimited online access to the Prezi presentations, and an attendee-only copy of all discussion notes.
Registration Fee: $350
Presented by: David Lindstedt, PhD, PMP, CBCP
