Today's Technology: Are you controlling IT or is IT controlling you? The commercial reality will be revealed!

Lisa Harvey, Tech Savvy Guru and Managing Director, Energetica

Lisa Harvey is an innovative speaker with a deep understanding of the value of IT in achieving the strategic objectives of an organisation. Lisa shares her knowledge and expertise with passion and, more importantly for those of us who are not tech savvy, she uses simple English to express her concepts. She consults extensively to SMEs but also has a strong background and interest in the not-for-profit sector. Lisa says, "Technology has the potential of keeping costs of business operations down, whilst creating a competitive edge". Over lunch Lisa will explain how to use technology as a strategic component of business and how to get the most out of technology by applying simple commercial principles. Her presentation provides a framework for incorporating technology into business strategies and innovation.

Topics addressed by Lisa will include;

Getting the fundamentals of IT right.
n Getting control of your IT.
n IT is not about technology.
n Open source (free IT) - how useful is it for you?

Lisa will showcase innovation within the SME sector and show the process that assists organisations to create great ideas and carry them out. Lisa's IT career began with an IT vendor in the 1980s. As IT Manager with Sydney City Mission and National IT Co-ordinator with a major trade union she became an expert in IT requirements for organisations. Lisa believes that SMEs should use innovative information and technology concepts in their service delivery. It's all about people and outcomes, not the technology.
