Leadership By Numbers :: ECIS Explore 2006 Conference in Toronto

Knowledge is not power, but learning is. As kids, we made art with paint-by-number kits. Simply matching the outline numbers with an oil paint gave us the illusion of mastery. I've worked in all facets of the IT industry: as IT management, as a consultant, systems administrator, developer and instructor. And, I still see a lot of paint-by-number projects which try to be the real thing. IT leadership is about reading the numbers, then going outside the lines and taking risks.

ECIS Explore 2006 Conference in Toronto

Category IBM/Lotus
I will not posting as frequently this week, as I'm in Toronto attending an ECIS Explore 2006 conference. ECIS stands for Education Center for IBM Software (so, “ECIS” is one of those 2^nd level embedded acronyms of which Bob Balaban is fond).

IBM training partners from around the world will be attending, and I even get to make a presentation on Social Networking. For today and tomorrow, I'll be meeting with the ECIS Advisory Council (I'm a member), and then it's two days with some outstanding speakers on everything from Hannover (by Jon Dodge) to Workplace solutions (by Ken Rokicki).

What's so interesting about being involved in the ECIS channel, is that I get to see the unfolding of several early technologies as they make their first foray into organizations.
