  MARCH MEETING - Triple Play - Leadership, Value & Strategy

  1-4:30 PM (Registration & snacks 12:30 – 1:00)KU Edwards Campus BEST Building – Room 130 12600 Quivira Road Overland Park, KS 66213

  Peter Aiken will be presenting ‘Triple Play - Leadership, Value & Strategy’

  Peter has more than 30 years experience in Data Management and is the Founding Director of Data Blueprint, a consulting firm that also hosts educational webinars.  Peter is a long-time friend of DAMA including the Kansas City chapter and we are very excited to have him come and share with us.

  His presentation will include the following information . . .

  Management concerns fall into broad categories:
  -  Implementing change that effectively improves performance
  -  Processing lots of information without gaining appreciable insight
  -  Securing real returns from technology investments

  Data, of course, is at the heart of all of these and other organizational complaints.  A triple play of investments in data as an organizational asset is 1) a necessary prerequisite and 2) a primary enabler - permitting management to address these troubling issues.  Transformation may require some organizational discomfort.  The first step is to recruit, qualified organizational talent.  The second step is to significantly overhaul the manner by which most organizations seek to obtain informational value.  The third step is to implement a new type of strategy - one that integrates organizational functions and IT. By approaching data management in this different way, organizations can begin to gain the leverage that they seek.  This talk will address each of these topics - illustrating how this triple play of new leadership skills, revised value propositions, and a re-positioning of strategic investments can alleviate the concerns.

  Please send your RSVP by March 3rd to: rsvp@kcdama.org.

  DAMA members who have a paid membership from April 2016 through March 2017 may attend at no charge.  Guests are welcome to attend for a $35 fee.
