      I think a general talk on risk mitigation, how it translates to the bottom line, and how to get projects approved by management by justifying the cost might be good. You could throw in helpful hints about how to align projects with business need and not departmental wishes.

        I'd actually like to hear a session about growing your department, coaching and development of the people who work for you, letting them grow without stunting your growth, justifying that the team needs to grow, etc.

          @pchiodo is good on this subject.

            I am not sure I should be chiming in here,.. since I feel that I'm in the latter stages of the twilight part of my IT career... As much as I am still interested in Tech and IT,.. With all that has happened over the last 10-5 years so much of it is beyond me.

            As a sole IT tech in a Non Profit operation, I could see options in Firewall, VPN, Mesh network, Wi-Fi, digital security and such; but on a level that a AIO Tech could comprehend...

              I am not familiar with the term AIO Tech. I Googled it but didn't find anything.

                Self coined term. AIO (All In One) Tech.. Not really a term.. or did I just create it...?

                  OH! I know AIO in reference to PCs. It was "AIO Tech" that threw me off. No special tech, just a monitor attached to the PC like we've had since the beginning (TRS80, Mac, etc.)

                    I think I can arrange that one.
