(www.PmiMileHiSym.org)

The largest annual gathering of the project management community of the Rocky Mountain West, the full day Symposium offers world-class speakers, networking with 1,500 attendees and up to 18 Professional Development Units (PDUs).

Additionally, Kerley will outline that given today’s amount of large-scale projects—unrivaled in size, scope and scale—project managers will be essential to their organizations’ survival and success.

Anne Loehr, named the “Generational Guru” by the Washington Post, will speak on “The Future of Work in the Digital Age.” She will outline strategy and best practices to prepare for megatrends, how to survive and thrive despite the big changes coming to the American workforce, and factors affecting the workforce, such as women leaving the corporate world to start their own businesses.

Amy Vetter, author of “Business, Balance & Bliss: How the B3 Method Can Transform Your Career and Life,” will speak to “The Connected Leader: Creating an Engaged Company Culture One Employee at a Time in the Digital Age,” focusing on the need to create strong human connections during this era of technological revolution. She will address how habits and patterns learned early in life affect us into adulthood and steps to break the patterns that don’t serve us today, plus how to initiate communities of support in the workplace to achieve best results for the organization.

Beth Ziesenis will speak on “Powered Productivity: Super Tech Tools to Get Stuff Done,” a research based look at common productivity problems and technology to solve them. She will address how to automate tasks and save time with shortcuts and background functions, stay safe online, streamline communication to avoid email overload, and discover tech tips and tricks to increase efficiency. Ziesenis will inspire on how to filter through thousands of apps, gadgets, widgets and doodads for finding the ideal free and bargain technology tools for work and home.

"The workshops are among the full day roster of speakers, with breakout sessions to be announced in November," noted Robyn Mattivi, Symposium Director.

Michael Abrashoff, former Commander of USS Benfold, on “Leadership Lessons from the Best Damn Ship in the Navy,” with afternoon keynote from Vinh Giang, Young Entrepreneur of the Year, South Australia, and award-winning magician on “The Power of Illusion.”

“Disruption is the new normal, and success relies on a workforce that can manage the impact of new technologies. Project leaders are essential in tomorrow’s changing landscape. According to a 2017 report by the Institute for the Future and Dell Technologies , 85% of the jobs that will be available by 2030 haven’t even been invented yet.” Source: Project Management Institute, Pulse of the Profession In-Depth Report, 2018.
