TRANSFORMING BUSINESS EXCELLENCE: THE SUPERHERO MINDSETWelcome to both a challenge and an opportunity. As conference director, my team would like to offer both, while sharing some insight on one of the most unique combinations of sessions and workshops available to you across North America.
“Transforming Business Excellence” is more than our conference theme – it’s about establishing a long-term mindset that enables us to achieve, believe and deliver – much like your favorite superhero.
As a crusader for project or business analysis professionals, you are often tasked with managing teams, predicting shifting scenarios and ensuring careful direction, while understanding the importance of the bottom line.
ProjectSummit*BusinessAnalystWorld Washington is designed to create circumstances that deliver these breakthrough skill-set learning situations. Whether it’s through recognized experts and innovators in the fields of Project Management and Business Analysis or peer-to-peer casual conversations, the learning process will be natural and, often neglected, fun!
Along with our ongoing robust list of activities, we have added new tracks that include Agile and Leadership. Both will inspire and educate in a meaningful way. In fact, it’s important to remind you that we are a PMI and IIBA Endorsed Education Provider. Attendees earn 1 credit for every hour of education – 19 in total over 3 days, which goes a long way to renewed certification.
I encourage you to take advantage of all the learning and networking opportunities this event provides and unleash your inner Superhero!

2017 KEYNOTE SPEAKERS
Think back to the best leader you ever had. Did they have a magical quality that made you want to walk on hot coals if they asked? Oftentimes, we assume that being that “great leader” is out of reach for us because we don’t have that charismatic personality. This presentation explains why the “Thoroughbred Leader” is not only respected but embraced. We will share characteristics that define the “Thoroughbred Leader and explain how their approach differs from other leadership styles. You will learn intervention techniques that leaders can use to manage delicate conflict situations and also learn why it’s critical to establish team charters. You will leave with specific tools and techniques that you can implement immediately to enhance your leadership skills!

JUNE 20TH, 20173:45PM - 5:00PM Bored of boring meetings? Tired of tired employees? Learn fascinating new ways to turbocharge
learning, relationships, and happiness. New studies in neuroscience have identified the Power of Play as one of the best methods to create engagement, increase performance and supercharge creativity and innovation. In a word, play is MAGIC. Roger demonstrates innovative techniques that incorporate elements of play into education, meeting, and team programming. As an advocate for active, participant-driven sessions, Roger will showcase how to weave together learning, networking, and fun using interaction, theatrics and friendly competition. The session not only talks the talk but walks the walk; participants will experience first hand some of Roger’s recommended activities resulting in a wildly entertaining and a surprisingly profound experience.
In this high octane keynote, Dr. Donohue will share her annual review that found that less than 10% of employees believe in and trust their executive team. Her research, with public and private corporations and with government, shows that trust has been consistently falling since her research begun in 2007. This session is designed to give you cause to pause. How can you lead if your team no longer trusts you and is no longer listening to you? This isn’t about you – it’s endemic. Employees do not trust their leaders, and you are communicating and leading through a fog of mis-trust. Your team is not playing to its potential. Dr. Donohue will share with you her insights into trust, value and engagement in the workplace, their impact on productivity, and the strategies that are needed to effect change.

We all have dreams and aspirations for something better. A better job, more recognition, experience in a new domain, a happier life, or maybe just a new hairstyle. Hans can’t offer much help on hair styling, but he can share some tips and stories on how to exploit your uniqueness to create the very best possible version of YOU. After working and consulting for over 25 years, Hans Eckman has learned that the secret to happiness isn’t being the best in your field (or even a happy wife), but fulfilling your potential. Together, you will explore why leveraging your strengths is far better than trying to fix weaknesses. You will experience inspirational examples of how you can overcome fears that are holding you back. Play “Where’s Waldo?” to discover how personal branding is the key to opening doors. Do not miss this fun, engaging and possibly politically incorrect session.

THE POWER OF PLAY
6 JUNE 19 - 21, 2017 | HILTON ARLINGTON HOTEL
You have seen the new technique in the BABOK and want to explore it more! Come join us for a fun play date to play some requirements collaborative games. We will introduce, discuss, and play some collaborative games that will inspire you to work with your stakeholder differently to elicit, analyze and prioritize requirements. Come out and play!
Although many successful project management practitioners are “accidental project managers,” successful projects should not be “accidental.” By utilizing major contributors to project success and avoiding the leading causes of project failure, project success should be predictable and repeatable, instead of a hit-and-miss occurrence. This presentation describes an approach to ensure consistent delivery of successful projects by focusing on major contributors to project success, including requirements management processes, using a strategic PMO with formal project management methodology and tools and executive management support. This approach when implemented in collaboration with stakeholders can lead to consistent successful project delivery.
Have you ever felt like you are speaking a different language when addressing someone who is of a different generation? You are not alone. Dr. Mary Donohue has researched conversation patterns to understand how different generations process information.
As Project Managers, you are either working in teams, or leading them. There are now three, and soon to be four, different generations in the workplace. Each generation brings to the workplace its own perspectives and assumptions, developed through its own unique experiences. As a result, information is not processed homogenously and communication is incomplete, causing increased stress and anxious team members, often resulting in late projects.
The result of this research is the 13 Conversations Model, designed to assist leaders to understand how different generations process and present information – and adapt to meet the needs of different generations in the workplace. Dr. Donohue will also unveil the data that brings to life the 13 Conversations and will discuss emerging workplace trends.
