Kim Dallefeld, MVP, MCT

Kim Dallefeld, MVP, MCT

NAV Consultant certified in Dynamics NAV 29 years ago. Now an MVP, MCT, MCP. My goal is to empower companies to get the most out of NAV or BC. Combining years of NAV/BC practical knowledge with accounting, consulting and development background, I bring a unique set of skills rarely found in a technically oriented individual.

Bridging gaps; that's my forte. Identifying what users really need/want in BC to gets the blueprint. Preparing a detailed comparison of user's needs versus what BC 'out-of-the-box' will do, lays the foundation of the project. Assisting analysts in how to configure BC to meet the user's requirements is the plumbing and electrical for the system. My developer skills let me build the walls to meet the user requests and so that developers put a roof on correctly! Then I can manage the project and provide communication to keep work on track, on time and on budget,

Let's build a system that's your best.

Please note that Sessionize is not responsible for the accuracy or validity of the data provided by speakers.

Most Active Speakers 2024

Every year, we put together a list of the most active speakers. This list features the top 3% of speakers who have participated in events using Sessionize during the 2024.

The 3% is calculated from the pool of all speakers that have at least one accepted session in year 2024. We don't include inactive speakers or speakers that had no accepted sessions during the year. There are around 38,000 unique accepted speakers this year, the 3% is 1036. Not all of them have their speaker profiles set as public, and we respect that, so the list doesn't show all of them.

The calculation is based on the number of accepted events, that's the main criteria, but to get more refined results we also look at things like multiple sessions per event, sharing a session with a co-speaker and how big the event is. Number of submissions and declined sessions don't affect the list.

Please note that the count of events and sessions in this list does not represent the number of events and sessions from the year 2024. Instead, it shows the number of events and sessions featured on the speaker's public speaker profile; these numbers have nothing to do with the award itself.
