9:30: Hugh Forrest—SXSW Interactive
and the Future of Libraries
Hugh Forrest is
Director of SXSW (South by Southwest) Interactive, a five-day festival and
conference designed to promote community involvement with the innovation,
inspiration, and creativity for generating new ideas and emerging technologies.
Hugh will discuss counter-intuitive lessons learned from SXSW Interactive’s
success such as: SXSW Interactive is all
about social media, but people attend the event because they make great
face-to-face connections. SXSW Interactive is about the hottest new
technologies, but one of the most popular elements of the event is the SX
Bookstore. Hugh will use these and other points to argue that libraries need to
continue to change, evolve, and adapt. However, given the lessons of SXSW
Interactive, the future is probably brighter than we may think. LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/pub/hugh-forrest/4/250/863
10:30: Keynote Speaker--Mark
Chussil--You’ve Got the Data. Now What?
Most strategy
challenges cannot be solved — emphasis on solved, not merely
“responded to” — with data and information alone. Instead, they must be solved
by combining intelligence (knowledge) with intelligence (human
decision-making). In this interactive presentation you will not only hear about
hidden traps that bedevil strategy decision-making; you will see those traps in
action. It may shock but it won’t hurt. It might even amuse. Among the topics
we’ll cover are:
·
The illusion of
control. A strategy is a decision, not an
outcome.
·
The delusion of confidence. Stop
chasing certainty and start testing possibilities.
·
The exclusion
of humanity. Something is missing from that
spreadsheet…
·
An infusion of
reality. How to get people’s attention
and generate action.
·
The opportunity
of a lifetime. Three secrets of success,
hardly ever told before!
