The Mind Shift Required to Lead Successfully in a Virtual World

Presented by: Lisa Cox, Trainer, Coach, Consultant, Corporate Education Group

 

It’s been a few years now, since many of us first shifted from leading co-located teams to primarily virtual teams. While we have learned how to utilize the tools and platforms available to connect us, in many cases we remain more disconnected than connected to our virtual teams. For leaders, the world of virtual work continues to offer new challenges as the traditional skills of “managing by walking around” and face-to-face connections have been replaced by email, instant messages, and conference calls. This webinar will focus on how to help leaders re-connect with their virtual teams by exploring the mind shift required, as well as the systems, work processes, and leadership practices that must change to lead successfully in the virtual world.

    The importance of increasing attentiveness

    Fostering a strong community among virtual team members

    Prioritizing employee development

 

Audience: Public

Date/Time: Wednesday, April 12, 2023; 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm EDT

A New Look at Data Modeling and Data Analysis

Presented by Steve Blais, PMP, PBA, Consultant, Coach, Author

 

Many business analysts who took business analysis for an undergraduate or even advanced degree in universities around the world found that they had to take at least one, and probably two, semesters of data modeling. They learned entities, relationships, normalization, resolution of the many to many relationships, and so forth. And then for the next twenty years of practicing business analysis never once engaged in creating a data model or in most cases, even seeing one. Obviously, the business analysts worked with data, defining it, refining it, organizing it, and so forth. But data modeling was left up to the database administrators.

 

Today, data modeling has a different meaning (not that creating entity-relationship or class models has gone away) in the analytics world. It has to do with a mathematical model of the data used for data mining and knowledge discovery. So, will business analysts be expected to know all about analytics and creating algorithmic data models, or is that someone else’s job as well.

This webinar will acquaint you with both forms of data modeling and answer the question: what does the business analyst have to do with any data modeling?
