- Tim Gard - Author, Speaker Hall of Fame member

Description:
We are facing difficult times. The pressure to do more with less, deliver to deadlines, and respond to increasing expectations has - in many cases - created an epidemic of stress and dysfunction. Everything seems so serious, and to Tim Gard this is not an acceptable way to work and live. Although he is one of the funniest men in America, Tim doesn't make light of serious situations; he shines light on them to reveal previously unseen possibilities. He points out that everyone smiles and laughs in the same language, and "finding humor when it's most needed" can be the very best way to boost morale and restore a creative atmosphere. After all, life is a game - or should be! It all depends on how one looks at things. By shifting your perspective, you can change your experience - and the experience you create for others - in a real, tangible, and valuable way. It's never too late to change the game.

Description:
Technology is transforming government (and society) in fundamental ways as all generations are now using technology not only for convenience but as a central and indispensable part of their lives. Needless to say, this puts pressure on government agencies to keep up with the times. This means that serious attention must be given to citizen engagement, social media, mobile access, mobile apps and smarter websites. This session takes a look at the future of service delivery.

Description:
It is no surprise that fraud and abuse are growing in today's struggling economy, something that government organizations can ill afford. Equally expensive to government - if not more so - is "waste" resulting in improper or unnecessary payments and expenditures. This session focuses on how to intelligently utilize data to detect, analyze and prevent intentional (and unintentional) abuse of government programs and resources.

- Jefferson "Beak" Howell - Adjunct Professor, LBJ School of Public Affairs, University of Texas, and Former Director of NASA's Johnson Space Center

Description:
The Johnson Space Center is NASA's center for spaceflight training, research and mission control. Its workforce of 15,000 includes a hundred astronauts, hundreds of scientists and thousands of engineers. It is perhaps the most exhilarating organization in the world - and at times the most daunting. Lieutenant General "Beak" Howell was the Director of the Space Center when the worst imaginable thing happened: the Columbia shuttle explosion in 2003. It was a demanding test of leadership, but one that Beak was uniquely qualified to meet after a career of profound - and often astounding - experiences. In this fascinating session, he shares the challenges and lessons learned that led to his legendary "Beak's Rules of Leadership".

Description:
The demand for mobile access is exploding at rates previously unimagined. Organizations can expect to be overwhelmed by a wave of personal and portable devices in the workplace as workers insist on being able to work just about anywhere while using their favorite devices - regardless of what policies might say. This session focuses on how to find the right balance in maintaining control and security while still allowing easy access, convenience and information sharing.

Description:
Technology has become a common currency and there are two distinct sides of the coin: the user and the provider. Users always want more and providers always struggle to cope. In today's economy, there is no room for waste and very little room for experimentation. So, the challenge from the get-go is to design services in such a way that people will use them while at the same time ensuring that providers can survive when people do use them. This session provides a forum for a lively discussion of the psychology of technology from both points of view.

Description:
A comprehensive security plan has to start with user authentication - both internal and external. It can be a daunting task when the range of users is constantly growing and shifting, as are potential threats. Using just one tactic is not enough - it takes a combination of technologies and procedures. This session looks at the latest technologies and strategies as well as their strengths and shortcomings.

Description:
In these challenging times, just about any revenue-generating idea should be on the table. Taxes alone won't solve the budget shortfalls, and governments are increasingly considering options such as new fees, advertising, digital signage and public/private partnerships. This session looks at some ways to creatively leverage technology in ways that are "outside the box".
