Presented By Alyssa Blackburn
As information stores continue to grow in organisations everywhere, the practice of information management has never been more important. However, it's a tough flag to fly when you're not getting traction in your organisation. In this entertaining and engaging session, Alyssa Blackburn will show you how to find your voice and your story to help sell the value of information management and the many benefits it brings. Alyssa can turn almost anything into a story, so join in as she explains how being on a run away bus can taught her a very real (and very fast!) lesson in why information management is so important.
