SUMMARY:Opening Ceremonies & Keynote Speaker
DESCRIPTION:Location:Kojo Kamau A\, B\, C – 4th Floor \nSpeaker:  Shelley Row\, P.E.\, CSP – Blue Fjord Leaders \nPresentation Description: \nDecision-making can be challenging to get just right. Decisions can be made too fast or too slow. Neuroscience provides insight into the powerful internal forces that sway decisions whether you know it or not. If you want to enhance decision making\, reduce workplace drama and improve productivity\, learn the skills you need now. \nLearning objectives: \n\nLearn how your brain communicates through gut feel to influence decision-making.\nStop over-thinking by resolving the forces that freeze decision-making.\nDiscover proven techniques to slow a quick reaction before you respond and regret it.\nEnable “aha!” moments when they are needed the most.\n\nSpeaker Bio: \nAn Inc. Magazine top 100 leadership speaker and one of eight engineers worldwide who is a Certified Speaking Professional (CSP)\, Shelley Row\, PE\, CSP\, is a professional engineer and former government and association executive. As founder and CEO of Blue Fjord Leaders\, Shelley’s work focuses on engineering leaders to see beyond the data. The Blue Fjord Leadership System grows your organization by growing the management skills of technical staff. At Blue Fjord Leaders we provide foundational management skills to enable decision-making\, delegation\, critical conversations\, and more. Shelley Row’s one-on-one organizational assessment leads to customized professional development to achieve your goals. \nShelley is a high-energy\, engaging speaker and consultant working with top managers and leaders in technical industries. She interviewed more than three dozen executives from the public\, private\, academic and political sectors on leadership skills needed by technical professionals. Interview results combined with neuroscience provide a practical\, real-world approach to all programs. \nShelley learned the hard way that technical skills are not enough to be successful as a manager or leader. After plateauing in her career growth\, she realized that you can’t think your way to the top. Success comes when you learn to think\, feel and act. It is the integration of all three that makes a leader stand out. This realization transformed her from a woman engineer to a woman executive\, from over-thinker to decision-maker\, and from having a dream to living her dream. In 2010\, Shelley and her husband left their careers and moved to a Provençal village for ten months and traveled around the world to return home to Annapolis\, Maryland. Shelley published three books written about life and travel abroad. \nShelley founded Blue Fjord Leaders following a distinguished 30-year transportation career. Her career as a transportation engineer started in 1984 when women engineers were few. She worked as a transportation engineer in Texas\, California\, Arizona\, North Carolina and Georgia during the 1996 Olympic Games. She finished her career in the Senior Executive Service with the U.S. Department of Transportation where she ran a research program on connected and automated cars. She is an award-winning leader with top honors in her agency. Shelley is widely-known within the transportation community for her leadership\, vision and organizational skills. \nShelley is a sought-after speaker with hundreds of presentations to her credit including for national and international groups from 20 to 2000. She has articles published in Forbes\, Fast Company\, HuffPost Business\, SmartBlog on Leadership\, Realizing Leadership Magazine\, CEO Magazine\, ITE Journal\, Thinking Highways and more. Her book is\, Think Less. Live More. Lessons from a Recovering Over-Thinker. She is a certified virtual presenter\, trained coach\, a certified trainer for Business DNA Behavior self-assessment tools\, and she completed training with the NeuroLeadership Institute. She is the past president of the National Speakers Association Washington\, DC chapter. You can follow her work through X (@shelleyrow) and LinkedIn or by signing up for her newsletter on her website (www.bluefjordleaders.com). \nShelley holds Bachelor degrees in Civil Engineering and Architecture from Texas Tech University and an MBA from Virginia Tech. She is a registered professional engineer. Blue Fjord Leaders is a 100% woman-owned business with MBE certifications

SUMMARY:Understanding the Difference Between a Near Miss\, Incident\, and Accident
DESCRIPTION:Location: Frisco 9 \nSpeaker: Todd Marciniak – Northern Concrete Pipe \nDescription: \nIt is important that everyone knows and understands safety terminology and how to approach different situations. Not utilizing safe work practices can create situations where we encounter incidents\, accidents\, and near misses.

It is crucial to realize that these events/situations have distinct meanings\, each with a different level of risk and consequence. \nSpeaker Bio: \nTodd Marciniak has 26 years of experience in the concrete product manufacturing industry. Dedication and hard work have driven his advancement through several levels of employment within Northern Concrete Pipe\, Inc. and paved the way for his current role as Safety Director. Todd’s years of experience has provided him with a strong understanding of the different facets of concrete manufacturing operations and has fostered a strong\, safety-conscious mindset with a desire for continued innovation in safety culture. In addition to being a devoted Safety Director for Northern Concrete Pipe\, Todd is also the chair for the ACPA safety committee and works diligently to aid in the continued improvement of safety in his industry. \nTodd’s immediate goals revolve around cultivating a positive safety culture in the workplace. His ideas are centered upon improving employee safety knowledge\, perfecting exceptional safety training\, and promoting teamwork from within. He is determined to build a safety framework that can be maintained and improved upon for years to come. \nOutside of the workplace\, Todd has a variety of outdoor hobbies including hiking\, boating\, kayaking\, mountain biking\, and spending time at the gun range.
