Change Breakthrough Analysis
Speaker : Jim Canterucci
Change projects require successful implementation to reap the proposed benefits. To influence constituents to perform their duties in the new environment it is critical to help them move from their hearts to their heads. Change Breakthrough Analysis is an important tool that can be used throughout the life-cycle of your projects.
Change Breakthrough Analysis is a problem-solving tool that applies to change leadership in the areas of resistance, communication, and persuasion. In this session we describe how to conduct this type of analysis and introduce forms and tools that can be used to conduct breakthrough analysis for individual stakeholders within your change initiatives.
So many change projects are done “to” the employees and important constituents. Change Breakthrough Analysis is a technique that allows the involvement of these constituents in the process. Project managers know the requirement to involve constituents for the purposes of communication, scope control, resistance management, coalition building, and impact on the bottom line. However, until now, project managers had little practical instruction on how to go about achieving the appropriate level of involvement.
This presentation is done using a case study that allows the actual exercise of a change breakthrough analysis session.At the completion of this workshop, participants will be able to:
* Conduct breakthrough analysis with important stakeholders * Integrate information gained in all change project management activities * Use Breakthrough Analysis results as a communication tool
Registration begins at 7:30am, Breakfast to follow: Cost for Members: $10 Non-Members: $15 Price at Door for Members: $15 Non-members: $20

"Virtual connectivity for virtual servers - why and how?" |
9:00 AM
|
|
Presented by: Emulex Corporation
Sponsored by: VMWare, Inc. and Central Ohio VMWare Users Group
**Server virtualization is rapidly gaining market acceptance for server consolidation and provisioning.**
Please join Emulex Corporation, as Jean-Yves Chevallier - Director of Software Marketing - leads us down the path of Virtual connectivity and virtual servers.
The introduction of Emulex LightPulse(r) Virtual HBA technology, implementing standards-based N-Port ID virtualization, allows users to combine and leverage virtual servers and storage networks into flexible, secure and reliable solutions.
In addition, exclusive assignment of buffer resources to priority virtual machines, through their "port", provides added granularity to fulfill SLAs. Finally, the ability to "tear down" a virtual port and reinitiate it on a different server greatly enhances virtual machine portability for load balancing, portability and incident recovery. In short, N-port ID virtualization enhances SAN connectivity, flexibility, resource allocation and recovery.
**There is no charge for this event. Refreshments will be provided**
