Presentation: The Human Side of Tech: leveraging reptilian brains and butterflies on your next project.

Speaker: Peter Kay, CEO, CyberCom, Inc.

Topic: If you really want to supercharge your next technology upgrade or even improve upon your existing platform, leverage the most important factor, the Human Factor, within your organization.

Don't miss Hawaii's very own Peter Kay (of "Your Computer Minute") as he shares his secrets of leveraging the Human Factor as discovered over his 27 years in Hawaii spanning 6 tech startups and countless local clients ranging from our largest blue-chip firms to the smallest companies. The two key ideas Peter will discuss are:
* Leveraging the most primal human desires (in the reptilian brain) to get people to change their behavior overnight and embrace new technology.
* Transform organizational complexities where even the smallest movement can sometimes bring your entire project to a halt (The Butterfly Effect) into a powerhouse of focused efforts that brings about change faster and more completely than ever thought possible.

While human interface design is a deeply researched area, human behavior is rarely if ever formally considered in technology projects. Designed for both technical, management, and operational areas of all companies big and small, this presentation will give you insights that few consider and may make the difference between success and failure on your next project.
