Re-imaging the World´s Economic Data Remember the "Kodak Moment?' It was a term in photography popularized by Kodak to capture important moments. Well, right now there is a Kodak Moment going on in healthcare information sciences. It is associated with the attribute-based data structures that are the basis for the revolution in genetic diagnostics, clinical risk management, and personalized medicine. It is also the foundation and source of the advances in Big Data and Artificial Intelligence in healthcare. In this session, you will learn about a new innovation in business information management called the Locus Model and a new type of business information system called the Functional Information System (FIS). These important innovations have the potential to impact all data management in business, finance, and economics by introducing a universal standard that can unify the disparate systems in disparate countries that we currently use to classify and organize business, finance, products or job information. 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.

Giant's Shoulders - Making Project Connections All projects are a journey to towards a goal. All projects share the characteristics of being a temporary endeavor with a uniqueness of scope or environment that makes them very different from operations type work. The temporariness of the project requires that we manage time - that valuable resource that will consume and surprise us if we don't manage it well. A project schedule is our representation of future time - or future memories - that we build together to provide us with confidence, guidance and measuring points along the journey. A well-built schedule requires three key ingredients: An agreed scope representing the requirements of the stakeholders Estimates of task durations by the performers Solid connections between the tasks - Dependencies and sequencing What you will learn: This session and exercise will focus on that third element - the connections. It is no more or less important than the other two. However it does often provide an opportunity for conversations that can be referred to as 'storming' - in the Tuckman/Jensen model of Team Development (Forming/Storming/Norming/Performing/Adjourning). The game is designed to provide an opportunity to practice and improve our ability to identify connections/ associations/links between famous individuals from the Arts, Science and Craft worlds. We can use the same skill and ability to identify connections/ dependencies/ sequences between our project tasks.
