Streams

The conference theme of "Soaring the Winds of Change" applies to all industries and events. Within that theme there will be four sub themes or streams:

New Lift.
Covering new developments or changes in project management; stretching the boundaries; providing new thoughts, directions and leading edge practices.

This stream will appeal to existing project managers.

Wind Shear.
Managing business change through the use of project management; taking the view that project management is an essential skill / knowledge area for all senior managers these days. Aimed at senior business managers and executives.

Up Lift.
The soft skills of project management that are so essential to success. Skills such as managing virtual teams, team building and improving communications. Most of us are interested in this stream.

Taking Off.
The basics of project management, aimed at those newer to project management or wanting to refresh their skills.
