Deciphering a Learning Mindset: How It Supports an Innovative Company Having a learning mindset in today's environment is essential. With technology growing at an exponential rate, it is harder than ever for companies and individuals within companies to keep ahead of the curve (the fight to keep your skills, and hence your products up-to-date and relevant). This idea is very prevalent in certain communities such as technical ones, and not much so in leadership communities but it is the leaders that set the tone for the company. In this talk, Toby Newman will explore how leaders can drive success and innovation through a learning mindset. To have a true learning mindset, you have the responsibility to share back your new insights within an organization. This is where good leaders become great ones. This is where innovation really gets going. As leaders you have an extra responsibility as you set the tone and environment for this sharing to happen.
Beyond One Happy Team: Self-Selection for a Better Culture The talent shortage is real. According to CareerBuilder research, 60% of US organizations today can't fill their open positions in 12 weeks or more. Combined with a high turnover rate, this leads to a massive loss of profit opportunities.How can we create a culture that attracts people and keeps them engaged, motivated, and well-jelled with their teams? And after they join, how do we build resilience into our teams and the organization? Empowering people to choose their own teams - a 'self-selection' - is a great vehicle to build happiness, resilience and a better culture.In this session I will share stories from running successful self-selection events in New York, Dublin and Chicago, and how I prepare technology teams and management for their first self-selection events. Participants will learn about the ingredients of successful self-selection and its positive effects on employee retention and company resiliency. They will leave this session with actionable steps, excited about their first self-selection experiment. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs. Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies.

Portfolio as a Value Enabler: How to Make It Real A portfolio as a value enabler is not easy to achieve. It requires not only good process, practices and the right competencies in place but it also needs a change in the mindset of those involved in managing the portfolio. Quite often, a portfolio is not perceived as a value enabler but a necessary administrative burden. But how it can be perceived differently if it is presented as a collection of projects and programs or a massive Gantt chart? In order to change that perception and turn it into something tangible, portfolio management must apply principles of investment management. With this principle, it can turn into a great vehicle to drive business objectives. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.
