Leadership is a journey without final destination and with few reliable maps. To honestly face today’s challenges we need to be creative, resilient, resourceful, and courageous. Leaders need tools for working in complex, shifting environments. In times of unstable resources, they need to invite and empower everyone’s leadership, including their own.
So how do we do this. Authentic leadership in the ALIA context focuses on three aspects,
Mindfulness and authenticity to cultivate our own capacity to be genuine and courageous and to lead
Tools for working with uncertainty and transforming situations we find ourselves in
How to give space for others to develop and to empower them.
These topics are explored in this Presentation

The Leadership Challenge Notes
“Leadership is a relationship between leaders and followers. A more complete picture of leadership develops when you understand what people look for in someone they would willingly follow” (Kouzes and Posner 2017, p. xiii).
PART 1. WHAT LEADERS DO AND WHAT CONSTITUENTS EXPECT
Chapter 1. The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership.
Using the stories of two people who each took advantage of an opportunity to lead their organization to excellence, the authors introduce their leadership model, The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership.
The Five Practices
Ordinary people who guide others along pioneering journeys follow similar paths, marked by common patterns of action. When getting extraordinary things done in organizations, leaders engage in Five Practices that are available to anyone who accepts the leadership challenge:
Model the Way
Inspire a Shared Vision
Challenge the Practice
Enable Others to Act
Encourage the Heart
This model has stood the test of time—research confirms that it’s just as relevant now as when Kouzes and Posner first began their investigation.
Leadership is a Relationship
Leadership is a relationship between those who aspire to lead and those who choose to follow. Success in leadership, business and life is a function of how well people work and play together, and success in leading depends on the capacity to build and sustain the human relationships that enable people to extraordinary things done
Ten Commitments of Leadership
The behaviors that serve as the basis for learning to lead are embedded in The Five Practices:
Model the Way
Find your voice by clarifying your personal values
Set the example by aligning actions with shared values
Inspire a Shared Vision
Envision the future by imagining exciting and ennobling possibilities.
Enlist others in a common vision by appealing to shared aspirations.
Challenge the Process
Search for opportunities by seeking innovative ways to change, grow, and improve.
Experiment and take risks by constantly generating small wins and learning from mistakes.
Enable Others to Act
Foster collaboration by promoting cooperative goals and building trust.
Strengthen others by sharing power and discretion.
Encourage the Heart
Recognize contributions by showing appreciation for individual excellence.
Celebrate the values and victories by creating a spirit of community.
Chapter 2. Credibility is the Foundation of Leadership
The authors discuss the research into the four qualities that people believe are essential to exemplary leadership, on which all great leadership is built.
What People Look for and Admire in Their Leaders
Over a period of more than 20 years, the authors asked more than 75,000 people around the globe what values they most looked for and admired in a leader, someone “whose direction they would willingly follow.”
Only four out of 20 qualities have continuously receiv.

Our beliefs drive our behavior and eventually our identity. If you want to change how you parent, you must be willing to look at what you really believe & be willing to change those beliefs. So what do you believe about relating to others?
Servant Leadership Principles - Fostering a Culture of AgilityLen Lagestee
The phrase “servant leadership” is frequently used when current leadership styles (typically command-and-control) clash with an emerging culture of empowerment and self-organization. “We need our leaders to embody servant leadership” is a comment I recently heard. But what is servant leadership? Do people really know what they are asking for?
Let's take a look at a few of the principles from the book Servant Leadership by Robert Greenleaf.
Effective Leaders aim to focus on turning obstacles into opportunities. For the young leading lady, the opportunities are great. A phenomenal woman is one who can embrace and understand who she is and where she plans to go. She is clear on her values and knows what she needs to do to create her own definition of excellence. This seminar will explore life stories, techniques, and skills specific to the professional woman’s experience and her unique journey to success.
At the end of this seminar, participants will be able to:
a. Identify effective leadership strategies.
b. Examine specific strategies for creating a distinct image and brand.
c. Explore perceived stereotypes, obstacles, and ways to address them.
d. Explore winning life philosophies.
e. Identify strategies to build and maintain confidence.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
