His ideas can be found in Forbes.com\, CIO.com\, TEDx\, his own series of blogs\, and public speaking. Mikhail is a founder and CEO of Massaro\, a management consulting firm focused on outcomes from IT investments. He has been a SIM member since 2011\, SIM Boston’s MCD chair since 2018\, and a SIM sponsor on chapter and national levels since 2015. \nMikhail is a certified Wine Oenophile. He is also an Ambassador for Chevaliers de la Chanterpleur in Vouvray\, France. He has a passion for wine education with an approach that takes mystery and complexity out and expands knowledge of wine enthusiasts of every level. \nThe fine print: \n\nThis is an “invitation only” event\, and this invitation is not transferable.\nThis is a free event\, sponsored by Massaro. Attendance is limited to 25 members.  If you register and are unable to attend\, we ask that you let us know as soon as possible so that others may attend in your place.\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n\n\n\n\nTo register for this complimentary SIM NJ Member event\, or if you have any questions\, email Pasquale Cirullo at pcirullo@simnj.org. \n\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

It is quite evident that most of enterprises are moving away from their traditional on-prem hosting to public cloud. As more organizations are adopting hybrid\, multi-cloud patterns\, they are struggling to optimize the value and to control cloud spend. Which in turn also has resulted in capital expenditure getting converted into operational expenses. As per Gartner report\, by 2025\, Enterprise spending from traditional IT will decrease and it will overtake by Cloud operational expenses. \nPublic cloud / Hybrid cloud consumption continues to grow at an exponential pace and CIOs across the enterprises are challenged with attaining the desired cost savings of migration to the cloud. Below are some of the key questions you need to consider \n\nHow do we manage spiraling cloud costs and ensure we are making the most effective and efficient use of cloud services\, in a pro-active manner?\nHow do we ensure we are getting the most value from our cloud investments and getting the most business value from our cloud spend?\nHow do we get our organization speaking the same language when it comes to cloud spend\, especially between finance\, IT and the business and are aligned around a common direction?\n\nHear directly from the experts on the “Good\, Bad & Ugly” while managing the Hybrid Cloud?\nCXO’s are looking for the next generation Hybrid Cloud Operating Model that is enabled by the best Hybrid Cloud Management Platform\, Cloud Fin Ops\, Automation\, AIOps\, Intelligent workflows and cloud native practices such as DevSecOps and Site Reliability Engineering delivered at enterprise scale. \n  \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]\nAbout the Panel Members\nMadhu Kumar\, Founder & CEO\, Amadis Technologies \nShashi Mullay\, Managing Director\, EY \nNatarajan Subramanian\, VP IT Systems Engineering\, Broadridge[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”Agenda” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23005b94″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]5:30     Registration and Networking\n6:15     Dinner\n6:45     Business Meeting\n7:00     Presentation and Q&A\n8:00     Networking[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]Please register for the event below.\nPlease note that registration at the event will be $85.00 for members.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Talk to any one of them\, however\, and they will admit it is probably not a case of “if” but rather “when” such an event will occur. Many will also admit that they are probably not properly prepared for the aftermath of such an event\, particularly in regard to determining exactly what happened and the extent of the compromise. Thus\, many will reach out to outside consultants who will need to be supported in this mission. \nWould your organization be ready to support them in this critical endeavor at such a highly stressful time? Join us for this session\, led by experienced experts\, where we will explore best practices to help prepare for such incidents before they occur. Don’t miss out on what promises to be an important and informative lecture and discussion.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]Our esteemed panelists will include: \nMichael Geraghty\, CISO State of NJ\, Director NJ CCIC\nMichael Geraghty is the State of New Jersey’s Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and Director of the New Jersey Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Cell (NJCCIC).

Join us on July 18th for a light-hearted\, yet educational wine tasting workshop\, led by perhaps SIM’s greatest wine expert\, Mikhail Papovsky. \nMikhail Papovsky is a win-for-all business model advocate. His ideas can be found in Forbes.com\, CIO.com\, TEDx\, his own series of blogs\, and public speaking. Mikhail is a founder and CEO of Massaro\, a management consulting firm focused on outcomes from IT investments. He has been a SIM member since 2011\, SIM Boston’s MCD chair since 2018\, and a SIM sponsor on chapter and national levels since 2015. \nMikhail is a certified Wine Oenophile. He is also an Ambassador for Chevaliers de la Chanterpleur in Vouvray\, France. He has a passion for wine education with an approach that takes mystery and complexity out and expands knowledge of wine enthusiasts of every level. \nThe fine print: \n\nThis is an “invitation only” event\, and this invitation is not transferable.\nThis is a free event\, sponsored by Massaro. Attendance is limited to 25 members.  If you register and are unable to attend\, we ask that you let us know as soon as possible so that others may attend in your place.\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n\n\n\n\nTo register for this complimentary SIM NJ Member event\, or if you have any questions\, email Pasquale Cirullo at pcirullo@simnj.org. \n\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Let’s face it\, conflict is unavoidable\, it is inevitable. And without a clear strategy for managing it\, we inevitably suffer\, risk failure on the job and in our careers. This can cause us to become disengaged and unfulfilled in the workplace and question our purpose for working for that company.

Does it take good grades and education\, high IQ scores and standardized tests\, climbing up the corporate ladder\, playing politics\, is it about good timing\, is it only meant for a select few? Or is there a different story? \nWith two decades of professional development experience\, speaking\, and most importantly\, real-life\, hands-on in-the-trenches business experience in both the private and public sectors\, his view is inherently different. Eric appreciates\, and shares with listeners\, that no matter how talented\, gifted\, or experienced\, and no matter what role we serve or title we carry\, our level of success is not measured based on the work we produce; it is measured based on the relationships we build. To that end\, he works with organizations to build more collaborative and harmonious workplace environments by building stronger customer and workplace relationships. \nEric is known for being an expert jerk who turned jerk-expert. He is the author of the book\, How to Work with Jerks: Getting Stuff Done with People you Can’t Stand. Whatever you do and wherever you work—jerks are all around you. And without a clear strategy for working with these difficult people\, we inevitably suffer and risk failure on the job and in our careers\, and risk becoming jerks ourselves. This book offers that strategy and a roadmap for you to build relationships with the people you work with\, interact with\, and serve. \nEric received national attention in NBC\, ABC\, FOX\, and CBS news for his expertise in leadership development stating\, “Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is the key component of being a successful leader; and is the most important skill that will help you thrive in today’s ever-changing business environment.” He was recently featured in Training Industry\, the most trusted source of information on the business of learning\, for his insight in helping leaders leverage EQ by employing a three-step process that has helped improve human interaction\, workplace relationships\, employee engagement and customer satisfaction.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”Agenda” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23005b94″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]5:30     Registration and Networking\n6:15     Dinner\n6:45     SIM NJ Updates\n7:00     Featured Presentation/Discussion\n8:00     More Networking[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Register for the event below or email your RSVP to Karen Kostulas.  Include your full name\, professional title\, and company email address in the message. \nSIM NJ Members: $60\nSIM NJ Members In Transition: $30\nNon-member guests: $100\nNon-member guests must be accompanied by a member[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Thus\, understanding\, addressing\, and managing that risk needs to be a top priority – to protect company information\, assets\, technology\, systems\, and networks. \nMost federal\, state\, and local law enforcement agencies and regulators are now hyper-focused on Information Security — not just on apprehending cybercriminals and reactively addressing cybercrime after it occurs; but also\, proactively preventing it. \nToday\, most enforcement and regulatory agencies expect businesses to have robust cybersecurity compliance programs built around identifying and managing their most significant cyber risks. Many also require companies to have robust risk-based information security programs\, as pre-requisites to conducting business. This also extends to third-party contractors and business partners who are now expected and contractually required to have robust risk-based information security compliance programs. \nThe best way to prevent this Parade of Horribles is for IT and Risk Management/Compliance/Legal to work together in a collaborative partnership – transcending traditional corporate silos and assumptions regarding what IT\, Compliance\, Legal\, and Risk Management are “supposed” to do. \nOn Octobert 12 2023\, Alexandra Rebay\, former Global Chief Compliance Officer for Verizon Communications will lead a discussion on how to form this collaborative partnership. When done right\, effective proactive information security compliance and risk management can be leveraged as a competitive advantage. \n  \nAbout Our Presenter: \nAlexandra Rebay was the Senior Vice President\, Deputy General Counsel\, and Global Chief Compliance Officer for Verizon Communications\, and also held a variety of other senior executive leadership roles at Verizon and its predecessor company\, GTE Corporation\, over almost 30 years. Since retiring from Verizon on the eve of the COVID-19 pandemic\, Ms. Rebay has brought her expertise in compliance\, risk management\, litigation\, and crisis management to the not-for-profit arena\, guiding the Greater Somerset County YMCA\, whose Board Audit & Risk Management Committee she chairs\, through the myriad novel operational issues – including cybersecurity challenges – presented by the global pandemic and its aftermath. \nBefore her career in the private sector\, Ms. Rebay served as an Assistant United States Attorney in the Southern District of New York\, prosecuting computer crime\, securities fraud\, corruption\, narcotics\, and terrorism cases.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”10470″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”Agenda” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23005b94″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]5:30     Registration and Networking\n6:15     Dinner\n6:45     SIM NJ Updates\n7:00     Featured Presentation/Discussion\n8:00     More Networking\n8:30:    In-person Members In Transition (M.I.T.)
