Dysfunction Junction: What's our Malfunction?Presenter: Cindy Campbell, International Parking & Mobility InstituteOffers 1 CAPP PointTeam dysfunction can be the Achilles heel of any organization. Some common indicators of a broken team include employees being unmotivated or unwilling to collaborate, the inability to complete projects on time, overall job dissatisfaction, and high employee turnover. Building and maintaining cohesive teams requires courage, discipline, and individual commitment. While team health is difficult to measure or quantify, it can determine the success of our collective efforts. It can also propel us to achieve great things – accomplishing tasks in less time, improved organizational reputation, greater individual job satisfaction, and reduced employee turnover. In this session, we will discuss some of the symptoms of a broken team and the steps we can take to encourage open communication, healthy conflict resolution, and modeling the behaviors we want our team members to emulate.

Measure What Matters – The Power of Contemporary Goal SettingPresenter: Casey Jones, CAPP, PMP, FLASHOffers 1 CAPP PointAside from cultivating the appropriate workplace culture, there is nothing more important for leaders than ensuring that their organizations are pointing in the right direction. But the needle rarely points in the exact same direction for very long as external forces, opportunities and threats change the landscape and force constant yet strategic change. What tools exist to help leaders ensure their organizations move down the right path and know which fork to take next? Some organizations use Key Performance Indicators which provide the laser-focused metrics needed to monitor performance with precision. But high performing organizations likely need something more. In this session we’ll look at the objective and key results framework established by legendary venture capitalist John Doerr in Measure What Matters which details how Intel, Google, the Gates Foundation and other successful organizations stay on track and adjust when necessary. This method, known as Objectives and Key Results (OKR), fuel goal setting, engagement, and alignment within your team, while KPIs provide the laser-focused metrics needed to monitor performance with precision. OKRs provide a more powerful tool than KPIs and have proven to be the preferred way high performing organizations set, track and update ambitious, measurable and time-bound goals. Attendees will:

9:00 - 10:00 a.m.Active Allyship: How Pronouns and Behavior Build BelongingPresenter: Kat Kibben, CEO, Three Ears MediaOffers 1 CAPP PointNo one can thrive in a workplace where they don’t feel safe. Even in supportive company cultures, many transgender and gender non-conforming people still question their safety as they come out over and over to new teammates. The fear stops them from achieving their biggest goals. Building belonging helps companies and careers grow by allowing highly creative, talented people to work in a culture where anyone can have an impact. You'll learn how you build that belonging with actions during this session. People who have attended this session with non-binary, LGBTQIA+ speaker Katrina Kibben have said it helped them understand what pronouns mean to people and how to be a better ally by listening to real experiences. Attendees will leave this session with stories and actions they can take to be active allies:

10:30 - 11:30 a.m.Modern Management: It's Not That ComplicatedPresenter: John McCormick, Vice President & Managing Director, StructureCareOffers 1 CAPP PointToday’s workforce is arguably the most diverse, spanning many generations, cultures, backgrounds, and experiences. But managing today doesn’t need to be complicated. John will explore how business leaders can positively impact the entire employment experience and meet the needs of a diverse workforce who are searching for engagement, development, and meaning in their careers. Because, at the end of the day, there are more commonalities than differences across our workforces. Attendees will:
10:30 - 11:30 a.m.Respect for People Using Continuous ImprovementPresenter: Bridgette Brady, XCC, Sr. Director of Transportation and Delivery Services, Cornell UniversityOffers 1 CAPP PointSurveys suggest present day workforces are fatigued, overworked and desire development of skills – most people want to do well at meaningful work. In the place of blaming resource constraints, adoption of a continuous improvement (CI) culture could mitigate wasteful work and create efficiencies – doing the same job smarter and providing time for meaningful activity. With all the positives in a continuous improvement culture for the workforce, why is it so resisted by those performing the work? This session will explore fear-based resistance and potential strategies towards implementing a CI culture with respect for people.
