The Recipe for Success: Building Trust and Engagement
Joe McBreen Chief Technology Officer, St. Vrain Valley Schools [email protected]
Session Description Some leaders apply for the job; others become leaders by circumstance or necessity. This session’s speaker is the latter, and he’s here to share his story of being handed an IT department plagued with multiple challenges: in-fighting between managers, extremely low morale, high turnover, evidence of sabotage, and a reputation for poor service and negative attitudes. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how this once-lethargic group transformed into a strong and trusting team, committed to service excellence.
Speaker Background Joe McBreen serves as CTO for the St. Vrain Valley School District in Colorado. As a former classroom teacher turned technologist, Joe;s is passionate about sharing and helping others.
