Description:
In Government IT today, success - or even holding on for dear life - requires great toughness, endurance and resiliency. Who better to inspire us than the man who is arguably the most successfulendurance athlete of our time? As a professional triathlete, Mark won 66 of the 96 races he entered, six consecutive Ironman World Championships in six starts (a record), and a World Championship at age 37 (another record). These achievements did not come easy. In this fascinating keynote address, Mark shares the principles that enabled him to turn devastating setbacks into historic triumphs; principles each of us can use to achieve the highest levels of success in our personal and professional lives.

Description:
How can government reposition itself to meet the needs of the next decade? How can IT develop, manage and do everything else better as citizens are asking for an ever greater level of service from government. Technology has opened up new doors, but it requires re-thinking how to do things. Where does technology have the greatest impact? How do you maximize access and opportunities? How can you improve business processes? In this session, a panel of digital government experts will focus on the role of IT in changing the face of government.

Description:
As the number of increasingly powerful, convenient wireless devices and applications expand, the demand by users seems to grow exponentially. As a workforce is empowered with mobile technology, productivity rises while at the same time opening the door to new vulnerabilities and security risks. This session discusses these issues while highlighting innovative technologies such as high-speed smartphones, iPads, applications and provisioning standards, especially as they might apply to government IT organizations. This session will also explore new opportunities and challenges presented by mobility, such as virtual desktops and the Bring Your Own Device movement.

Description:
Government is under incredible pressure right now. The economic crisis has hit us with a double whammy: exponential increases in demand and dramatically reduced resources. Government simply doesn't have the capacity to do all the good we want to do in this world.
How have we responded to these new pressures? By trotting out the old ideas. More blue ribbon panels, travel moratoriums and calls for accountability. We cut back on paper clips and cut out the training. We outsource, upgrade and rightsize. Meanwhile droves of new customers are stuck on our porch waiting to knock on our door and ask for help.
The house of government doesn't need another layer of paint or some new carpet. It needs an extreme makeover. And just like on the show it needs it done fast! Our house is full of "moldy ideas" that are making everyone sick and our pipes are bursting from the ever increasing demands. We can stand around arguing whether the house is too big or costs too much or we can grab some tools and fix it up. This presentation makes obvious the real problems plaguing government, how you can join the crew and gives you the tools to complete the makeover.

Description:
Cloud computing is a concept that covers a lot of ground, ranging from external web-based applications and services to customized private clouds. It seems that just about any service can be offered in the "cloud," including storage, applications, email, maintenance and development. This session discusses options, technologies and opportunities. You'll also hear from members of TechAmerica's Government Cloud Commission, which in February unveiled the Cloud Imperative - a Comprehensive Guide for Best Practices in Cloud Computing for State and Local Governments.

Description:
Government isn't a business, nor can it pretend to be. But it can think more like one by streamlining operations, understanding real costs, developing metrics, managing performance and leveraging information. Now more than ever, IT organizations are being asked to quantify the value of IT to program leaders and elected officials. This session focuses on the most important elements in IT performance metrics and decision support from a government best practices perspective. This session will also explore how transparency tools such as dashboards can help agencies become better able to understand data and measure performance.

Description:
In American history, the single greatest shift in the workplace was driven by the Industrial Revolution as jobs moved from outdoors to indoors. Since then, not much has changed except for further technologization. True, technology has continually and dramatically affected how we work. Yet most people still work in standard office environments. But that's changing. Is it a new "revolution?" Almost certainly. The only question is to what degree. This session looks at recent research and predictions by Government Technology and other publications into the changing workplace. After more than a century of the same basic work environment, is it time to blow up the model?

Description:
It's time to stop wondering whether social media has a place in the enterprise and start realizing that social media has grown into a fundamental method of everyday communication. This session will take attendees beyond the "should you/shouldn't you" social media discussion and will instead illustrate how to use social media in a practical manner. You'll learn the value of social media campaigns and how to conduct them to reach your agency's goals. And you'll be shown real-world examples of social media being used intelligently and with purpose.

Description:
Cross-boundary collaboration has been a common goal of jurisdictions for years. Now, an unlikely combination of economic hardship and technological advances has made such collaboration not only possible, but necessary. This session will feature a discussion on how government can get to that collaborative state and what agencies need to do to be successful. This session will also address how vendor partners can help facilitate a collaborative environment. You'll hear about examples and case studies from others who have made it past obstacles to collaboration, including Lane County, which is providing services for rural, eastern Oregon counties.
