 Peachtree Dunwoody Rd. Bldg. D\, Floor 11\, Atlanta\, GA 30328 Food | 
 Raffles | Prizes If you want to get the attention of senior executives in 
 any organization\, show them the money. How does money flow through the 
 organization? Where is value added and lost? These indirect costs are 
 tough to pin down\, but they're there - and you can find them. In this 
 presentation by industry authority Roy Atkinson on "Measurement\, 
 Management and Money" he will discuss how lost productivity due to 
 incidents costs significant amounts of money&mdash\;and nearly no one is 
 measuring it. Traditional IT support metrics have been focused on IT 
 itself\, producing what many call inside-out thinking and vision. These 
 days\, businesses mistakenly believe that cutting IT spending is good and 
 doing more with less saves money. But we can't improve what we don't 
 measure\, right? Takeaways: The staggering costs of lost productivity we 
 do not see How siloed thinking limits our visibility into hidden 
 expenditures How good experience management can help break down silos and 
 gain a better understanding of spending Roy Atkinson is one of the most
