What Leaders Need to Know About Unconscious Bias How many decisions have you made today that were driven by impulse or bias? If your answer is "none" or "very few," then two things are almost certainly true: you are human you are wrong. Every second, our brains receive more than 11 million bits of information, but our conscious minds can only process 40 bits per second. What this means is that most of the information that we take in from the world around us gets processed at a level below our conscious awareness. In this presentation, we will explore aspects of brain science related to bias, examining some of the more prevalent cognitive biases that exist. We will take a look at some of the shocking data around unconscious bias and investigate its impact in the workplace. Finally, we'll learn about the work that the most forward-thinking companies - like Google and Facebook - are doing to help their employees understand, recognize, and mitigate the effects of unconscious bias in the workplace. 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.
Innovative Sustainable Horticulture Management The founders of the High Line showed the world how an unwanted landscape relic could be turned into a beautiful, and usable, public space; thereby providing a renown model of adaptive reuse. Today, the continued operation of the park is equally as carefully designed and innovative.The landscaping on the High Line was designed to idealize nature in an urban setting, and our plant selection and horticulture management techniques are calibrated to maintain that nature.These innovative, sustainable methods ranging from composting, to integrated pest management, to the use of sustainable cleaning products, to water flow design lead to an environment where our plants can thrive and our surroundings can remain clean and beautiful for the visitors of today and for future generations.

Effective Communication: The Make or Break for Projects Most, if not all, of the problems we encounter while managing our projects can be traced to a communications breakdown of some sort, perhaps even an overall lack of effective communication. When you communicate effectively, you are better able to interface with others and develop stronger relationships. This lively and engaging presentation will help to emphasize the importance of good communication within the project management arena and provide you with the whys, whats, whens and hows of effective project communication.

Reinventing Project Management Now! Projects are taking up a more and more prominent role within organizations and the economy as a whole. Simultaneously, the skill set demanded of project management professionals is changing, too. Recently, Gartner claimed that 80% of today's project management tasks will be eliminated by 2030 as Artificial Intelligence takes over. This statistic alone is an indicator that the project management profession will undergo profound changes in the next decade, if not earlier, and we should see this as a call for action to redefine the future of our profession. This session, founded upon some of the latest research conducted in collaboration with HBR, will explore the challenges that the project management profession is facing both from a methodological point of view, as well as the disruptions that are already impacting us, such as AI, robots, and blockchain. If we act now, project management will become one of the most sought-after competencies by organizations in the new world. Understand the disruption that the project management profession is about to face Learn new and simpler project management concepts that will help us become the profession of the future Understand the skills and competencies needed to be successful in the project economy This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.
