For many leaders, technology is among the scariest aspects of nonprofit management. Technology changes frequently, most leaders don’t have formal technology training, and when mistakes are made, they can be expensive. But managing technology well can also lead to some of the greatest gains in productivity and effectiveness. The same skills that lead to a successful nonprofit career are the very same skills that will help you manage technology well in your organization. In this session, we’ll ask you to change how you think about technology and challenge you to let technology run wild in your organizations, so that a thousand flowers can bloom.

Managing Technology to Meet Your Mission

What do You INVEST in? Your Program Your People Your MISSION Technology is a Part of That

The OLD Return on Investment (Dollars Saved) - (Dollars Invested) = Return on Investment Positive numbers good Negative numbers bad $ Value of Time Saved - = ROI Cost of Laptop $800 / yr over 3 years - $1800 + contracts and service =

The Math is Messy Now Intangible benefits: Job satisfaction Productivity Morale Teamwork Client satisfaction Client response time Client satisfaction

Define Your Need What are your tech needs? How should you staff them? How much time will these tasks take? Is it constant work, or cyclical? Development, maintenance, or user support and training? Does the tech work even live in the “tech department?”

It’s the Person AND the Skills Cultural fit is as important in the nonprofit setting as skills fit What non-tech skills are needed in the role?

Good Tech Leaders… Get ahead of the change Create context Communicate early and often Listen, don’t just talk! Involve and empower staff Mitigate anxiety

It’s not About the Technology MISSION FIRST DON’T SPEND, INVEST GROW GARDENERS

Copenhagen keynote service desk future presentation barclay rae

Barclay Rae

This document summarizes a presentation on the future of service desks. It discusses how service desks have evolved from initial help desks to play a more strategic role in managing the customer experience. However, service desks still face challenges around being undervalued within IT departments. The presentation argues that investing in the people, tools, and processes of the service desk is key to improving customer satisfaction and demonstrating the value of IT. Emerging technologies are also shifting the focus to automation, self-service, and enhancing the overall customer experience. For service desks to be successful in the future, they must focus on leadership, influencing culture change, and prioritizing customer outcomes over internal processes.

Oisin Byrne

The document discusses a study on IT support roles in small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) in Ireland. It finds that most SMEs rely on a informal "IT Nice Guy" role to handle IT issues rather than employing a dedicated IT professional. The "IT Nice Guy" is typically a staff member who took on IT responsibilities in addition to their regular job without formal IT training. Over half of SMEs surveyed said network and internet connectivity were the most common IT problems.

The Anatomy of XLA: eXperience Level Agreements

ITSM Academy, Inc.

Alan Nance, FISM, Managing Partner CitrusCollab LLLP ... thought leader, innovator, creative disruptor Service Management exists to guarantee a valuable experience to customers and colleagues. Despite years of implementing best practices, the reputation of most technology departments is below par in the eyes of business leaders. 90% of CEOs feel they aren’t meeting their customer needs. 85% of CEOs don’t think technology is performing critical functions. One of the core reasons is that technology teams are often trapped into measuring output rather than outcome, and KPIs on activities rather than XPIs that guarantee experience. Luckily, ITIL 4 now connects to the world of design thinking and experience management with its focus on co-creation and outcomes. But how can we include eXperience Level Agreements (XLA) effectively and quickly? In this presentation Alan will explain all-things XLA.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...

Alex Pruden

Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security. Paper Link: https://eprint.iacr.org/2024/257

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters

Safe Software

Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they? Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality. You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots

Pablo Gómez Abajo

Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots. To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS. Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application. I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.

You can dress a paper clip up a thousand ways, but at the end of the day, a paper clip is a paper clip is a paper clip. Anyone who know how to operate a paper clip can operate any paper clip, for any purpose.You may buy paper clips for your office, but it’s tough to argue that paper clips contribute to your mission. Lots and lots of technology is a commodity at this point – server maintenance, email, document storage, security. We’ll talk about this in the next section – but the important thing to note is that unlike the paper clip, technology can actually help you meet your mission, IF you are managing it properly.
