Carrots, Sticks, and Magic
Catalyst, visionary, lubricant - these are the hats we wear as PMs. They are also how we define great leaders. Software teams, executives, marketing, and sales teams all look to the PM as the core instigator of change, driver of productivity, and persuader for possibility. Your customers rely on you to bring amazing products to market that solve hard problems and entertain like magic.
Good Project Managers recognize all the knobs and levers they control and can see to leverage the controls to drive the success of their products - but it takes learning and mastering a diverse set of skills (including self awareness). These skills aren’t standard in any curriculum. Leadership requires that we take ownership of outcomes, motivate teams, remove or lubricate frictions, and understand the psychology of all our stakeholders.
That sounds like a lot of responsibility - how do we succeed? Join us for the answers.

Strategic Thinking: A Rare and Valuable Competency
Research shows that the next generation of leaders must be able to demonstrate:
- The ability to think strategically
- An understanding of the parts of the organization and how each part contributes to the value proposition
- An ability to drive change
As project managers progress to more demanding and strategic projects, they need to better distinguish good strategy from bad strategy. They need to be able to cope with ambiguity and non-linear complex environments.
This engaging presentation will help the audience recognize and describe the four pillars that define strategic thinking, how strategic thinking is different from strategic planning, the four DICE X-factors of strategic thinking, the Ben Franklin technique for applying the microskills of strategic thinking, and why “competent strategic thinker” ought to be part of your personal brand.

Introduction to the Levee Improvements Project
The Foster City levee system, surrounding the majority of the outer bayfront perimeter of the City, is crucial in providing protection from flood hazards and storms. In 2014, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) determined that Foster City's levee system does not meet minimum requirements for flood protection. In order to maintain FEMA accreditation and keep Foster City properties out of the flood zone, Foster City voters approved Measure P in 2018 with nearly 81% support, authorizing the City to issue a $90 million general obligation (GO) bond to improve and strengthen the Foster City levee system.
Levee improvements will allow Foster City to keep Foster City properties out of the flood zone, maintain FEMA accreditation, prevent residents from paying mandatory flood insurance, and protect essential city services during storms and earthquakes.
