Kirsten Hunter, API Evangelist, Akamai Technologies

Creating APIs that make developers jump for joy is a goal we should all have, and this session outlines a process for API development which will result in a better considered product, much more likely to succeed. When creating a new REST platform, the planning process frequently gets skipped (or is misunderstood), resulting in an ill-conceived API.

The session will cover creating user stories, deciding on metrics, planning the API, design decisions, documentation, and developer support. The focus will be on creating a developer experience that will delight and amaze your developer partners and increase engagement with your platform. Concentration will be on higher level choices rather than HTTP architecture, and is appropriate for developers, product managers, or anyone else with an interest in achieving success for their API program.

315: Why We Need Women Leaders to Win
Will Marre, Founder, SMART Power Academy
June 7, 10:45 am - 11:45 am • Donner Room
Women love technology but frequently hate the technology companies they work for - and consequently leave after years of fighting gender bias, unfriendly policies, lack of leadership opportunities, and women-hostile cultures. How can we change this? Having more women leaders is a proven competitive advantage, and the continuing female-talent exodus is a serious threat to the growth and prosperity of tech companies. Women's thinking, versatility, and social intelligence give them leadership advantages desperately needed in complex, collaborative working environments. This isn't just a theory; a woman's thinking patterns improve growth and profit. You do not need to "lean in" to succeed in toxic cultures. You need to "stand out," lead, and change these cultures. This session will show you five strategies for increasing your leadership power:
1. How to get opportunities to lead by developing a compelling leadership agenda that amplifies your credibility.
2. How to increase your influence and make persuasive presentations to a skeptical audience.
3. How to use structured collaboration to drive decision alignment.
4. How to create high accountability without being "bitchy."
5. How to promote changes in company policies that respect, encourage, and inspire women.

From built-in sensors, GPS tracking, full biometric monitoring - to evaporation and impact PSI detection to help reduce dehydration and injuries and optimize performance - all are clearly changing the way we do sports. However, professional sports leagues have been hesitant to approve (if not outright banning) the devices for in-game use. Further, the costs of many of these wearables create another obstacle for girls and women in sports. This panel will discuss the business of sports wearables, and the opportunities being presented almost daily as IoT becomes more and more engaged in the space.

Will Marre, Founder, SMART Power Academy
June 7, 2:30 pm - 3:30 pm • Donner Room
After thousands of years, women's roles have radically opened up. But the cultural myths that constrain your brain and antagonize your peace of mind may cause you to wrestle with your inner voice. What's possible? What's desirable? What should I do now? These questions are better answered as you free yourself from self-doubt. Once you're clear on the life and work you truly deserve, you can harness the new science of positive well-being to experience both greater success and work/life harmony. The pervasive myth of "The Hero's Journey" has created a "masculine" culture, and in this session you'll learn how to ...
* Most easily form new habits to improve your sleep, nutrition, exercise to supercharge your energy for Your Heroine's Journey.
* Overcome the ogres and dragons of self-doubt that stand in the way of fulfilling work in a joyful life.
* Use your six distinct daily energy peaks to increase your inner strength and resilience as well as your performance.
* Use SMART Power Rules to gain and maintain "best choice" clarity and create personal commitments that will change the way others treat you.
* Use three powerful daily mindfulness exercises to increase your optimism, build your confidence, and improve your loving relationships.
* Align your daily schedule with your "future self" vision.

We're living and working in a truly connected age: the expanded virtual workforce, bring-your-own-device (BYOD), the Internet of Things (IoT), and universal connectivity have given rise to the digital workplace. People are connected with mobile devices varying from phones to wearables and always-on smart devices. The problem? The old rules that governed how we work and live no longer apply. We're now more dispersed than ever, and complex, legacy infrastructure solutions are up for a major refresh by disruptive cloud-based technologies. We're also facing a new series of challenges to protect privacy and manage the sheer amount of data coming from many places (machines and users' laptops or mobiles) that has to be securely transported, stored, and analyzed. This panel will discuss how technology rapidly advances to rewrite the rulebook, and how we build the infrastructure of the future to manage the tremendous amount of data generated by humans and machines.

345: The Next Generation of Gender Partnership
Dale Thomas Vaughn, Co-Founder, Better Man Conference, Director of DEI, Good Men Project
June 7, 3:45 pm - 4:45 pm • Donner Room
McKinsey reports that gender parity would create $28 Trillion of annualized global GDP and that it could be achievable within a decade. That is the equivalent of adding 9 more USA-sized economies. That figure could solve world hunger, poverty, the clean water crisis, provide free college, and send humans to Mars and back ... on one year's worth of this new balance. "Our world needs gender equality. And we need it now."
If we’re going to create gender equality and partnership, we need to engage men in the process of changing the norms (according to our partners at Lean In). Within the next decade, male millennials will represent the majority of men in the workplace. If they are engaged, we may have a chance. If they are not, the cycle of inequity continues. So how do we make sure the next generation of men is engaged in gender partnership?
Come learn about the key areas you need to address if you want to create a culture to attract, retain, and engage the next generation of human capital in your business:
1. How to engage male millennial allies to find blind spots without shame or blame, by using the "Unconscious Bias Scavenger Hunt."
2. How to structure your workplace meetings for more equality: How to detect and correct MANsplaining, misaBROpriation, and MANopolizing.
3. Mentorship: Millennials crave it, but how do you deliver it when you're so busy, and how do you make sure you're mentoring everyone equally? Strategies and tactics that work.

114: Using AGILE Methodologies to Create Influence, On Demand
Bernie Maloney, Agile Coach, Persistent Systems
June 5, 2:00 pm - 3:15 pm • Coachng Workshop - San Jose Room
In order to succeed amid uncertain markets and rapid technology shifts, the ability to create and respond to change is rising in value. Using an emerging set of methods and practices, commonly termed "Agile" and largely associated with software development, teams and organizations are not only coping with but thriving in such turbulent conditions. From addressing resistance to change to instilling self-direction, Agile methods rely on Influence rather than Authority. Agile practices such as co-location and standups actually amplify influence by leveraging behavior patterns built into humans through biology and social conditions. This workshop teases apart those patterns, turning them into conscious tools for leadership through influence. Exercises take participants through the application and practice of techniques to lower resistance to communication, whether face-to-face or over the phone. This session is ideal for anyone seeking to tap the latent genius present in the people, teams, and businesses with whom they work in order to accelerate the arrival of high performance.

* Inspire bold action in yourself and your team.
* Influence others and drive strategy forward.
* Uncover (and practice) the four essential strategies to overcoming obstacles.

222: Leadership Essentials: Executive Presence, Influence, and Persuasion
Ruth Simone, Executive Coach, Luminare Coaching & Consulting
June 6, 2:30 pm - 3:30 pm • Coachng Workshop - San Jose Room
We all recognize the special moment when someone with presence walks on stage, and gains our full attention: when they speak, we're captivated. We're ready to listen and learn.
* Executive Presence may be hard to define, but it's easy to recognize. It happens when we speak with our truly authentic voice, and exude an aura of gravitas.
* Branding Your Influence communicates what really matters to make the bigger difference. We leave an impression of positive feelings and images as we communicate. Building this confidence in relationships leads to being selected for unique opportunities.
* Becoming Persuasive and engaging your sponsor develops real and authentic power. Mentoring is important, but engaging the right sponsor can change our future. Persuasion shapes conversations, changes perspectives, and validates our important agreements.
This workshop will explore ways to develop remarkable and compelling leadership traits.

305: Dealing with Difficult People
Frank Del Fiugo, Founder, Del Fiugo Consulting
June 7, 10:15 am - 11:15 am • Coaching Workshop - San Jose Room
Envision this: You've prepared for the board meeting thoroughly. Several peers have given the thumbs up. You walk into the room and begin to speak. Before you get through the introduction, you're derailed by someone in the meeting who appears to be interested in anything but your success... Or this scenario: you're working with an individual who can't take "no" for an answer. He lacks boundaries regarding your personal space, your time, and your work. Or, how about the explosive individual who overreacts verbally to the slightest feedback? Or the attention-seeker who takes all the credit and does minimal work? If you relate to one or all of these situations, this workshop is for you. With a template for dealing with difficult people, we'll examine four difficult personality types. You'll learn how to apply time-tested communication strategies to manage these challenging personality types, be in charge of our own reactivity to difficult people, and facilitate positive outcomes in a timely fashion.

Have you given up on networking, because it doesn't seem worth the effort? Do you cringe at the idea of another "meet and greet?" Do you want to make genuine connections with business associates, but don't know how? Great news! You can transform traditional networking into something much, much better. In this interactive workshop you'll learn a new skill: having three minutes to tell your peers about yourself personally and professionally and ask for what you need. This is productive. It's interesting. It creates a strong foundation to build a friendship upon. A bit nervous? Don't be. You'll:
* Meet people in a way that brings out your best.
* Make a true connection with the people you meet.
* Experience being known for who you really are.
* Develop a productive and rewarding way to develop strong business alliances.

Theresa Pidcock, Founder, Theresa Pidcock Consulting, L.L.C.
June 7, 3:45 pm - 4:45 pm • Coaching Workshop - San Jose Room
Tired of sitting in meetings that ask for your feedback, only to give it and not be heard? Or worse, know you have the answer and no one is listening? Ever worry your meeting will being taken over but don't know how to prevent it? Wonder what it will take to be heard? Start with this workshop and learn:
* How to successfully chameleonize to almost any situation and be seen as a high-level contributor.
* About the "communication style" of those around you to help them receive your message.
* How to lead a conversation, and take and keep control, even when things start to go south.
* How to truly listen rather than answer, with the intent to solve problems.
* How critical it is to catch what ISN'T said just as much as what IS.
* Why we sometimes agree in a group setting, when we really disagree inside.
* About the important tie body language has within our diverse workplace and world.
* Why some women feel they give their power away - and how to begin a successful turnaround, NOW!
