Getting Started with Azure Purview
If you have ever worked in an organisation:
• With data everywhere;
• Where trying to find data is a struggle;
• With the same data in multiple locations;
• Wondered how data fits together.
Then you have probably worked in an organisation that could benefit from data governance.
This session will bring you into the world of Azure Purview, showing you how to find your data, learn what data is where, and uncover opportunities to join datasets that you may not have known were related.
The art of storytelling for greater impact
In the age of mass communication, capturing attention and delivering key messages with impact is critical. Storytelling is a powerful tool for conveying messages that stay with the audience, long after a presentation has been delivered. This workshop is for anyone looking to build practical storytelling skills they can use every day. The session will include practical activities, paired with coaching and guidance from the workshop facilitators.
How I survived 27 years in IT
Over 27 years I have seen some ups and downs in the IT industry in Canberra. While I can't tell some stories, and certainly can't get into the full technical nitty gritty, these are the stories I can tell enough of to pass on some of the lessons I've learned, hopefully without also passing on the scars. Names have been changed to protect the, ummm, innocent?
